Calling all South Asian Misfits who feel like they don't belong: Being yourself does not make you "less" of a South Asian; it makes you a more genuine one. If you have been ever labeled the "Black sheep" of your community or family, been told that you are "Too South Asian", or "Not South Asian enough", you belong right here! That's why I go by "The Bad Indian Therapist", because as someone who was raised Indian and Catholic, I've also been called these things too. I'm here to tell you that sometimes it's OK to be "bad", and even if we did everything right, we're still going to make mistakes. So, let's be "bad" together!
I use trauma therapy with South Asian Americans who come from insular communities and have survived cultural shame, violence, and adversity. I can help you decrease people-pleasing anxiety and set boundaries effectively! Together, we can embrace authenticity, overcome feelings of shame and guilt, and help you define your unique relationship to your culture.
Your background is only a small part of who are, it is not WHO you are! You're allowed to embrace multiple identities, AND belong to the culture as much as anyone else, even if others say you're not "good enough". If this deeply resonated with you, you've come to the right place. Let's schedule your free intro call today to see if I'm a good fit for you!
