Hi, I’m Asha (she/her). I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience as a therapist—and I’m not a therapist who believes you need to be “fixed.”

My practice is relational, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, feminist, and rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS)/parts work. I believe the ways we survive make sense in context, even when those same strategies eventually stop serving us. Therapy, for me, is about getting curious about those patterns rather than pathologizing them.

I’m queer, proudly so, and my practice is intentionally LGBTQ+ affirming, gender-expansive, non-binary affirming, kink-positive, and polyamory/CNM-friendly. I provide WPATH Standards of Care Version 8 letters of support for those seeking gender-affirming care.

I also believe therapy does not exist outside of the world we live in. Race, gender, sexuality, class, colonialism, capitalism, ableism, and other systems of power shape our lives, our relationships, and our mental health. I’m committed to continually decolonizing my practice, examining my own assumptions, and understanding distress in its broader social and political context—not just locating the problem inside the individual.

I’m pro-Palestine, feminist, anti-racist, and unapologetically queer. I don’t expect you to leave your politics, identities, or lived experience at the door.

You can expect me to be warm, direct, curious, collaborative, and occasionally irreverent. No bullshit. No toxic positivity. No pretending that structural oppression can be solved with better boundaries.

Instead, we’ll work together to understand your patterns, your parts, your relationships, and the systems you’re navigating—and figure out what you actually want to do with all of it.

You don’t need to become someone else to deserve a life that feels more like your own.
