I am interested in teaching about Indian immigration, early childhood
development in India, identity crisis in bicultural youngsters of Indian
heritage, conflicts and compromises in Indian families, midlife crisis
among Indian immigrants, first-generation Indian-American problems with
sexuality, mental illness, cultural values, substance abuse, etc.
I have written and taught about "Immigrant mental health, conflicts and
compromises in Asian-Indians." I have written and taught about "Arranged
marriage and its mental health implications." I am a Hindu by religion,
speak Gujarati and Hindi languages of India, and teach about treatment of
Hindu patients.
