About Dharele
Together, we can make sense of anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and patterns that leave life feeling overwhelming. I work with adults and teens ages 12+ who want space to explore overthinking, shutting down, or feeling disconnected. With curiosity and without judgment, we'll notice emotions, body reactions, urges, thoughts, and past experiences. From there, we can build coping skills and more choice in how to respond, moving toward what matters to you.
My approach
I integrate CBT, DBT-informed skills, ACT, and EMDR based on your needs. Through Body, Urge, Meaning, and Action, we'll notice what your body feels, what you're pulled to do, and the meaning behind those reactions. Together, we'll practice responses that fit your values, making room for feelings while finding a way forward.
About me
My caring background shapes an approach grounded in presence, compassion, and navigating uncertainty. Therapy with me is human, honest, and collaborative. We can start with what's happening now; the right words can come with time. That's Humans Helping Humans at ReLuma. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to explore whether we're a good fit.
