I work at the crossroads of culture, mental health, and social-economic integration. My counselling is for people who want to belong while staying true to themselves – especially racialized first and second-generation Canadians who may feel torn between worlds.
Our background is not a footnote in our lives; it shapes our strengths and struggles, and how and where we find home. With years of learning and teaching language, religion and culture, and lived experience across the Arab world, South and Southeast Asia, and Canada, I help clients identify tools as well as traps in their heritage and discover their authentic selves.
Mental health challenges are often bound up with financial stress. In my work, I blend psychotherapeutic techniques with tools for financial success. I support clients struggling with poor impulse control, rebuilding stability after setbacks, or simply learning to manage money. Together, we pursue and create the conditions conducive to great mental health.
For clients of West and South Asian heritage, our sessions may weave in poetry, wisdom traditions, even the meanings of your names. These are not add-ons but part of a culturally specialized way of counselling that respects the full texture of who you are.
To make the most of your uniqueness and beat personal and systemic barriers, book your first session!
