Nurturing deep healing and liberation through psychotherapy and education.
Welcome
Kanti is a Hindi word that refers to radiance. I interpret the word Kanti as our own unique momentum or energy within us that I hope to harness to support your exploration and journey towards deep healing.
Approach
Our capacity to heal expands with the power of safe and connected relationships. Our beings are keen to adapting to our life experiences and most of the time our mental health challenges are just our nervous systems trying to respond. Thus, I don't view clients as needing to be fixed, however we can help guide our mind, body, and hearts to evolve new adaptations that are supportive of who we want to be and how we want to live our lives. I use holistic and integrative approaches that address our mind, body, heart connection because transformative healing comes from addressing the entire being, I'm not in this for a quick fix. I draw upon fields such as in Interpersonal Neurobiology, Liberation Psychology, Somatic Psychotherapy, Integrative Psychotherapy, Buddhist, and Taoist philosophy. As a result, I am able to provide a thoughtful and socially conscious process that nurtures deep healing. Some of our time might be spent building our critical awareness, insight to our conditioning, understanding the impact of colonization and white supremacy culture, while other times we are exploring down-to-earth practices for real life application.
Presence
You are not alone and are deeply cared for in this space. I am here as your anchor, support, refuge, or guide, and will honor our relationship by leading with genuine compassion.
Your own wisdom, experience, and heritage matter, and I trust you as a collaborator in your healing journey. And while sometimes I might be a container for holding all the difficult emotions and experiences, I am always committed, engaged in your healing. In session I actively participate by offering perspective, reflection, and wisdom. Outside of session I engage in advocacy and continued learning so that I can be a well of resources for you.
You are not just one client in a sea of many to me. You are an important part of my community.
