Manushi’s interest in psychotherapeutic wellbeing began during her undergraduate studies, in a course called The Science of Wellbeing. Fascinated by the connection between mindfulness and positive therapeutic outcomes, she drew on her Buddhist background to experiment with mindfulness techniques in her own life, particularly in relation to her experiences with mental health struggles and addiction. As she experienced the benefits of mindfulness firsthand, she began applying its principles of nonjudgmental, compassionate, and curious awareness to identify unhelpful cognitive, emotional, and behavioral patterns and make meaningful changes.

She later supported individuals living with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease as a resident support aide at a long‑term care facility. There, she quickly realized that meaningful change arose from the connections she built with residents: when offered an accepting, nonjudgmental, and curious space, they began to open up and show who they truly were. Inspired by witnessing these transformations directly, Manushi decided to pursue a career in psychotherapy.

Manushi helps clients understand who they are in light of their past experiences, clarify their current goals, identify roadblocks, and update patterns that may once have been helpful but now create obstacles. She is devoted to meeting clients where they are, while strengthening the connection between the mind and body and expanding the range of choices available to them.
