Therapists in Guelph, ON

Life rarely goes according to plan, and in our most difficult times, many of us have not had the support and tools needed to navigate losses, transitions, and traumas. My role is to help you find your way through hardship, while expanding your capacity to meet challenges from a place of resilience and acceptance. Your struggles are not due to your own inadequacy; rather, I believe all behaviour makes sense on some level, when viewed from the right perspective. I work from a holistic stance that accounts for the individual, cultural, and societal factors affecting each of us uniquely, and therefore requires a personalized approach.

Hello, my name is Naszrin. I am a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist. I have 7 years of experience as a therapist and over 10 years of experience in the social service sector. My areas of expertise include anxiety, trauma, depression, relationships, parenting support, family dynamics and exploration of intersecting identities. I am told that I bring warmth and a sense of calm into sessions. I offer individual and family therapy; in person sessions are available in Guelph and virtually across Ontario.

***NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS FOR PHONE/VIDEO*** It’s a privilege and honour to be doing this work, and to walk alongside clients on their respective healing journeys. I believe that everyone is the expert of their own lives and life experiences. By working collaboratively and through meaning-making, I aim to support clients in connecting with their needs, dreams, hopes, as well as to the answers I believe each person has inside them. My approach is trauma-informed, non-directive, strength-based, and client-centered. Healing, the discovery of possibilities, one’s resilience, and one's gifts can all be part of the therapy process.

Do you struggle with anxiety, unwanted thoughts, and depression that affect your ability to be in the moment and enjoy your life? Do you find it hard to manage your emotions? Have you experienced something in the past that keeps you in a cycle of emotional pain? Do you find yourself wondering if there is any light at the end of the tunnel? Experiencing overwhelming emotions, and painful memories can be exhausting. It is even more exhausting when people around us are unable to understand this emotional pain. Not addressing this pain, and unwanted thoughts can have far-reaching impact on our quality of life and relationships.

Among all the things we want for ourselves, perhaps happiness tops the list for most. But life may not always turn out the way we expect, and that can hurt. There may be times when we feel stuck, angry, lost, confused, unhappy, or overwhelmed. What do we do then? In such times, I like to remind myself that “Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional” (Haruki Murakami). This perspective offers us strength to move towards inner healing and positive change. Seeking therapy is brave work, and a beautiful way to practice self-love; when you truly love yourself, you value who you are and can grow towards the best version of yourself.

My approach to therapy is holistic, which means that I consider every aspect of my clients' lives when creating a treatment plan. Whether it's anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, trauma, or you’re simply feeling lost, I will work with you to address the root cause of your struggles and develop effective coping strategies. However, therapy with me isn't just about addressing problems. I also believe that therapy is a positive and empowering experience where you can explore your strengths, discover new skills, and build a greater sense of self-awareness.
