My approach is to create a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental space where we work together towards healing. I offer both virtual and in-person sessions.

We all have our stories. Our past experiences shape the way we see ourselves and the world. Our conversations can help you understand these stories and offer the opportunity to rewrite old stories and craft new ones. You might wonder what makes these conversations with me different than ones you’ve had with friends and family. First off, the space and time is specifically designed for you. I can offer you a safe space where you will be encouraged to explore, with courage, how you see yourself, how you function in the world, and how you connect to others. Although this is hard work, we might even laugh along the way.

If you want to have a better understanding of yourself , have skills to cope, and generally feel better; I can support you.

Having a foot in two different worlds can be challenging and as a South-Asian Canadian therapist, I am aware of how cultural differences can affect our mental health. I create a safe, non-judgmental space for children, teens, and adults to embark on this journey of healing by using tools from various therapies (i.e. cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapies, and trauma-informed approaches). This journey is about you, and our sessions will be tailored to fit your unique strengths and needs.

I have over 15 years of experience in supporting children, teens and adults in various community, non-profit and school-based settings.

Hi,...Are you looking to reconnect and find love in your relationships as a couple or in your family? What is your story? Are you experiencing a lack of communication, connection, or are you struggling to navigate conflict? These concerns could be led to developing negative interacting patterns, feeling lost, depressed, angry, frustrated, overwhelmed and being unsure of how to move forward. If you need help, I am here to support you. I will help you to reflect, generate hope, feel safe, reconnect and heal through understanding and breaking negative patterns of interactions that could be impacting your life and relationships.

You're here! This step is often the hardest part! Life can be hard... I get it! The stuff that makes life tricky shapes how we see ourselves, how we see others, and how we make sense of the world. Life experiences form our core beliefs that often get in the way of living the life you desire. As an attachment-based therapist, I work hard to create a safe space where you can confront the tough stuff and begin to rewrite your story. I show up with compassion, acceptance, and humour, to dig into what is getting in the way of you living your truth.

Your needs are important, and I am here to help you feel supported and validated, whether you are seeking support for yourself, with your partner or as a family. You will always feel listened to in my counselling room. A counselling approach that uses emotion to change emotion is powerful and offers so much hope. It is effective with couples and individuals alike. Meeting your unique needs is what matters most, so I am flexible and incorporate a range of interventions that will help you reach your goals. Counselling is not "one size fits all"; it is a creative process of working together to help you feel in control of your life.

I am constantly amazed at the resilience we all show, as we navigate our lives amidst the challenges that invariably arise! Sometimes the demands on us outweigh the resources we have available in that moment. It takes a courageous person to recognize the need for, and to request and accept, support. I am honoured every time clients invite me to join them along their journeys toward improved insight, skill, interaction, and overall living.

Life is hard! We may be faced with challenges from the time we are young, and sometimes the struggles come later in life. Sometimes we lose ourselves along the way. The good news is that things can change and you are already stronger and wiser than you realize! I believe in the power of human resiliency and people’s capacity for personal growth. You are the expert on your own life, and whether you are working to heal from a past trauma, trying to improve your relationship skills, overcome struggles with anxiety or depression, increase your sense of self-worth, dealing with a loss, or just working to find yourself again. I can help!
