Inner Refuge Counseling & Consultation

Inner Refuge Counseling & Consultation was founded on the principle of creating a compassionate, collaborative space for individuals navigating life's challenges. As a licensed psychologist in Pennsylvania with dual cultural expertise in U.S. Western and South Asian contexts, I specialize in helping clients manage anxiety, depression, relational conflicts, and cultural adjustment stress. My practice integrates mindfulness techniques, stress management strategies, and values-based approaches to address transitional life phases. With professional experience in both individual therapy and community consultation, including work at Cornell University, I offer tailored solutions for first- and second-generation immigrants, international students, and communities of color.

Tele-health services provide accessible care through HIPAA-compliant platforms, while group therapy sessions foster collective healing. My background in social work informs a systems-based perspective that considers cultural context in therapeutic interventions. Through public speaking engagements and educational podcasts, I promote mental health awareness in diverse communities. The practice emphasizes transparency in pricing, flexible payment options, and evidence-based methodologies. Clients benefit from structured cancellation policies and detailed documentation for potential insurance reimbursement. My commitment to cultural competence extends to addressing systemic stressors affecting marginalized populations.
