ReNu Counselling & Psychotherapy offers counselling and psychotherapy services for a diverse range of issues. We offer culturally-informed care to people of various racial and ethnic backgrounds. Our therapists strive to create a welcoming environment that helps clients lead more fulfilling lives. We provide a range of services to meet different income-levels, therapeutic needs, and approach preferences.

Everyone embarks on unique journeys involving various overwhelming challenges including emotional and mental health issues, substance abuse and relationship issues. My colleagues and I fully understand that when two or more people cope with similar circumstances, no two minds function alike. Therefore, my services instill clients with how to love themselves through comprehensive, mental, emotional and spiritual enrichment regardless of their age, social or ethnic background, or physical capacities. Overall, the greatest satisfaction comes from seeing clients reach self-actualization by gaining strength, confidence and empowerment to confront their own inner conflicts "for we all smile in the same language".

We believe that all persons are inherently good. When provided with the right support and encouragement, all persons seek to develop relationships and lead lives that are supportive and caring of others. Change is a continual process that is part of living. If we take the time to examine our lives, we can learn from our experiences and make changes that result in improved quality of life and relationships.

As your therapist, I will do my best to understand you, to be kind, and to focus on your concerns. I understand what it’s like to live in more than one culture, and navigate generational differences. I can help you find a balance between respecting your heritage and becoming your own person. If you would like guidance with current issues in your life, I can help you develop effective coping skills, and make changes that are better aligned with your goals and values. I can help you learn more about living well, so your life and relationships can feel full and be meaningful.

Accepting New Clients: In-Person & Phone/Video. We believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed.

We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

I am here for you, working with clients from diverse backgrounds dealing with various psychosocial stressors, identity issues, relational dynamics both in their personal and/ work life. I work with clients who are seeking to make sense of their lived experiences, deal and recover from feelings of disempowerment and want to live their life with dignity, respect, and hope. My clients have history of trauma, PTSD, intergenerational issues, parenting, mental health issues, work stressors, conflict, parenting issues, refugee and immigration issues, burnout, discrimination, workplace violence & harassment issues.

We all have different backgrounds and journeys that lead us to crossroads in life; some of us are hoping for relief, while others are searching for growth. When I get calls from clients looking for help, they don’t ask me what modality I use, instead they want to know who I am. Therapy is more about the relationship than the method, and this has been proven by research. I will apply my knowledge and expertise to help you navigate your psychological, emotional and relational issues with care. I have been helping people for over a decade in various capacities. We all have untapped resources and strengths waiting to be discovered.

Parenting is a special journey that can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and asking ourselves, “are we/am I doing this right?”. As a parent myself, I get it! Parenting our children touches all aspects of our lives as individuals and couples, presenting challenges that we never anticipated. Whether you are a new parent adapting to the demands of a baby, a seasoned parent feeling exhausted and burnt out, or possibly sensing disconnection from your child or your own sense of well-being, support is available to help you on this journey. You may reach out to me at Ekya Counselling & Psychotherapy.

For the last 6 years, I have worked with survivors of trauma - including sexual violence, familial violence, racial trauma, homophobia, among others - to address and process their experiences. My approach to therapy is warm, responsive, playful and transparent. I believe that every person benefits from learning about themselves, and that understanding the process of therapy helps with learning about the self. I meet you where you are (literally, in some ways, as I am offering digital therapy), and believe we can move from there. I want therapy to be useful, and welcome honesty, feedback, and laughter in session.

If you are experiencing distress that has impacted your life in some capacity, I will support you in processing and working through your areas of concern.
