Human beings are complicated-so often we attempt to reach out to others using words to express our thoughts, our emotions, and our behaviours. With children/youth, we see additional communication barriers because of fewer words and limited life experiences. Being part of a family system should bring safety and emotional support but sometimes this is not possible without help. My work is to enable us to become partners in the process of change- discovering strengths, new awareness and building on this. Imagine my holding up a mirror for you, so that with each session, you are able to discover and appreciate more of who you truly are.

All humans have the capacity for wellness, healing, and growth, despite the adversities we face. As a former national team athlete and current RCC, I have a unique understanding of the psychological pressures that coincide with sport-participation and managing difficult emotions. I also enjoy working with a diverse range of clients (16+) and couples to address a variety of concerns. These areas may include, but are not limited to, challenges with performance and social anxiety, depression, trauma/abuse, relational conflict, grief/loss, and disordered eating/RED-S.

You’re exhausted from carrying things that feel too heavy to explain—trauma, anxiety, addiction, or patterns you can’t seem to break. You might look like you’re holding it together on the outside, but internally, it’s overwhelming. Therapy doesn’t have to stay stuck at talking about the problem—we can work through it. I work with individuals (7+) navigating trauma, PTSD, addiction, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, and body image issues. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in modalities like EMDR, CBT, DBT, and ACT. Together, we don’t just build insight—we focus on helping your brain and body actually process the feelings/memories

Hello! As a South Asian woman of colour, I have grown up and experienced living in a multicultural society, balancing the different identities that may come from being a child of immigrants as well as having peers of differing backgrounds. This has helped me develop a unique understanding of the experiences of those similar and different to me.

We are made up of so many parts that make us who we are, and that is so important to understand and work with for your mental health and wellbeing.
