Diversity Statement:
As an immigrant from India, I am keenly aware of how culture and family values shape a person. Having lived in 2 very different cultures, I have learned to understand cases from both the complexity of the diagnosis and the cultural implications. I am well aware of the impact that family pressures, high expectations, challenges with independence, and language and cultural adaptations can have on mood and anxiety. As such, I am sensitive to cultural issues when devising treatment interventions with clients of different ethnicities.
