​​​​Hello, and welcome <3 
 

My name is India. I am a social worker, psychotherapist, and writer. As a therapist,  I hold all parts of you tenderly, empathetically, and with care.  I take at face-value your descriptions of your inner world. Through an attentive therapeutic relationship, you’ll come to deepen self-awareness and orient towards a life that is fulfilling and meaningful to you.

I work from a relational lens that honors the therapeutic alliance and focuses on emotional attunement. I understand the many ways that early attachment patterns and socio-cultural dynamics influence our present circumstances. I believe in the healing capacity of storytelling, and listen intently to the narratives you tell about yourself.

 

My therapeutic aim is to help you understand yourself more deeply, and to develop genuine compassion for your unique human expression. Together, I’ll help you to honor, clarify, and map-out, your vast mental and emotional landscape. 

 

 

My clients

I particularly enjoy working with adults who are highly sensitive, neurodivergent, emotionally intense, or who have prior diagnoses of mental health conditions. I enjoy working with people who find it difficult to make sense of their lived experiences— and those who have a harder time staying afloat in today's world.  

 

My clients often have overlapping mental health and/or chronic health conditions, which require a delicate balance of care and attention.

My framework

My therapeutic approach is emotion-focused and grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy. 

 

I believe in a holistic, integrative, and client-centered approach to healing that prioritizes sense-making and story-telling. 

 

Ultimately, my aim is to support you in making sense of your multifaceted selves and complex parts, while deepening into aspects of identity that ring most true and clear.
