Kanti is a Hindi word that refers to radiance. It is also a name connected to my heritage. I am here today because of the many sacrifices, hard work, and resilience of my ancestors and family.

I interpret the word Kanti as our own unique momentum or energy within us. In the journey of mental health and well-being I wonder how we can harness our lived experience, wisdom, and skill within ourselves to keep us going and hopefully thriving. I offer my own lived experiences, knowledge about neuroscience, psychobiology, therapeutic practices (narrative therapy, critical social work, acceptance-commitment therapy, trauma, and Buddhist psychology), and research (using qualitative and quantitative methods) to guide and support you in your journey.  

​

Because of my breadth of experience in cognitive and affective sciences, social research, and psychotherapy, I am able to provide a tailored- whole person (or organization) approach to counseling, mentoring, and program evaluation.
