At times, life can feel like a lot to handle. You might be dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood, or challenges in your relationships that leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure where to turn. If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. I work with individuals/couples/families from all walks of life, including those navigating cultural or family expectations that can impact confidence, relationships, and sense of self. I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore, heal and grow.
My counselling approach is client-centred and tailored to your unique needs and goals. I integrate a range of therapeutic modalities and practice in a culturally responsive, inclusive, trauma-informed, and neuroaffirming way. Together, we work collaboratively to support healing, build insight, and foster personal growth.
I realize reaching out to supports is not always easy and It is often challenging to open up to a complete stranger. It is also important to find the best fit for your therapeutic needs. Therefore, I would like to offer a 15 mins free initial session where you can gain sense of who I am and how I work and if that is what you are looking for.
