Feeling Stuck Between Cultures? Real Talk
If you feel like you're caught in the middle - trying to live up to your family's cultural expectations while also trying to fit into the world outside your front door.
It's exhausting!
You might be beating yourself up for not living up to those giant expectations in school, work, or your personal life. Then there's the anxiety, a constant, unwelcome guest that makes your home feel like a prison. And we haven't even touched on the silent shadows of past trauma and fear that hang around.
No More Holding Back: Finding Your Voice, Together
So, here's what I want you to know: Feeling better isn't just some fancy term we throw around. It's totally doable to let out all that stuff you've been bottling up, to sort through the mess of feeling like you're living double lives, and to actually create a spot for yourself where you're more than just getting by.
Think about being able to say what you need, figuring out who you are without worrying about all those harsh expectations that we put on ourselves, and feeling complete even when things seem all over the place.
That's the trip we can take side by side.
Culture and Identity: Let's Figure This Out Together
Hey, I'm Harpreet Sahota. With my BSW, MSW, RSW, and as someone who's been in your shoes—a child of immigrant parents—I get the struggle. I’ve been through the maze of figuring out who I am, juggling cultures, and facing the unique hurdles that come with our shared background.
It’s not about shaking everything up or cutting off roots. It’s about finding your balance in a way that feels genuine to you. I’ve lived these cultural puzzles, and I’m here to work with you to fit all those pieces of your identity together.
