South Asians

​Are you a South Asian seeking support:

• to achieve optimal success at work? 

• to be the best parent to your child?

• to find ways to balance your American-self with your South Asian upbringing (i.e., balancing bi-culturalism)? 

• to be the ideal life partner in your partnership with a loved one?

• to adjust to homesickness and other stressors common to recent immigrants? 

• to try to figure out how to balance work, family, and life stressors so you don't feel constantly exhausted or like a failure?

• to improve health issues (e.g. headaches, back pain, digestive issues, chronic unresolved health issues) 

• to increase happiness or life satisfaction?

• to feel less overwhelmed and stressed? 

​
