My name is Nashina (nuh-she-na). I'm so glad you landed here.
My joy is supporting folks uncover how life experiences and systems can shape the body, patterns, behaviours and ways we relate to ourselves and each other.
We can become entangled in webs of shame, judgment, guilt that exhaust us - keep us feeling stuck.
There are ways to detangle those webs and start to tap into something new - something generative.
I work in a warm, flexible, and non-judgmental way, honoring each person’s pace and path toward deepe self-awareness, healing, resilience, and well-being. And, I don't mind a little humour and levity along the way!

You’ve been carrying more than anyone realizes. Anxiety, shame, and old hurts show up when you least expect them. You want closeness, but trusting people feels risky. You blame yourself, feel “not good enough,” and worry there’s something wrong with you. You think that because you’re an adult, you should be able to just “get over it.” You push yourself to move on and try not to think about the past, but it follows you wherever you go. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

As a Chinese therapist, I am able to conduct my counselling sessions in both Cantonese and English.
I have a passion for working with youths, young adults, couples, and families on personal and relationship issues. My training is in Marriage and Family Therapy and I have experience working with youths and their families. I understand the difficulties of teenage development, but at the same time, I can appreciate how difficult it is to parent an adolescent. However, the "rebellious teen" is not inevitable and I would be happy to meet with you and your family to discuss your relationships and strategies for making parenting work.

Are you looking for someone to lean on and share without judgment? My approach to therapy is listening with an open heart. There was a time I did not speak up and if I did, I thought people would be critical of me. I was extremely self-conscious, it took a crisis in my life to reach out for help. I am here today to tell you that this experience shifted my life tremendously. The crisis was an end of a relationship and a suicide in my family. I ended up going back to school after over 20’s years in the same job and I am a counsellor today. Choosing the right counsellor is important and this relationship should feel connective.

You may already understand why you are the way you are. You recognize the patterns and may even know where they began, but insight hasn’t led to change. You’re ready to move from “why?” to learning how to do things differently.
Many of my clients struggle with self-worth, boundaries, people-pleasing, overthinking or trusting themselves. I also understand the immigrant-child experience: the tension between love and obligation, independence and loyalty, achievement and never feeling enough, and what it means to rebuild identity later in life.
Together, we explore what shaped you without letting it define what comes next.
