Hi, I'm Hana.

A Bay Area–born South Asian queer woman, mother, therapist, teacher, and more.

I offer a warm, grounded space rooted in curiosity, connection, and care.

I have nearly 20 years of professional experience in advocacy, education, and the arts, most of which has been in direct service.

I’m especially attuned to the nuances of diaspora identities and approach healing through an anti-racist, decolonial, and intersectional lens. I strive to bring both depth and lightness into my work.

I care deeply about breaking cycles of harm and supporting holistic healing across body, mind, spirit, and community. It would be an honor to walk alongside you in your journey of growth and repair.

Education & Qualifications

You’re curious about your inner world, looking to understand patterns, and wanting to build healthier connections.

Maybe it’s your first time in therapy, or maybe you’ve been here before — either way, you’re welcome.

I often work with QTBIPOC, young adults, neurodivergent people, educators, artists, healing practitioners, parents, and couples (including those in non-traditional relationship structures).

I also support people exploring harm reduction.

ABOUT YOU

ABOUT US

We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you.

My style is patient, collaborative, and flexible, offering empathy, reflection, and validation along the way.

Many clients leave sessions feeling more grounded, resilient, and empowered.

My goal is to work myself out of a job ;)

Together, we might draw on mindfulness, creative expression, or grounding practices you can carry into daily life.

I also support depth-oriented work, including IFS aka “parts” therapy, shadow work, inner child exploration, and integrating non-ordinary states of consciousness.

FAQs

  • We can hold sessions virtually, or in-person at my office in Oakland, California.

  • Individual Therapy (60 minutes): $250

    I operate within a hybrid model, dedicating a meaningful portion of my practice to insurance-based care while also offering private-pay services. This structure allows me to maintain a sustainable caseload and provide thoughtful, trauma-informed work over time.

    I am currently in-network with several major PPO plans, including Aetna, Cigna, Anthem, Kaiser Southern California Commercial, and Health Net. Insurance spaces are currently full, though you’re welcome to reach out to join the waitlist.

    For clients using out-of-network benefits, I provide a monthly superbill for reimbursement.

    If you have questions about coverage or fees, feel free to reach out!
