Seeking therapy is a powerful act strength and self-care. Finding the right therapist fit is incredibly important to have most effective therapy process and transform your life. This is a genuine and safe space where you can be heard, understood, validated, and empowered. Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, lonely, or disconnected? Life’s challenges—especially with trauma—can feel heavy, but you don’t have to face them alone. In our work together, you’ll find a safe, supportive and compassionate space to heal, build resilience, and reconnect with your true self. You deserve peace and fulfillment. Let’s begin this journey together.

I offer a genuinely non-judgmental space where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions at your pace. My empathetic & person-centered approach combines therapies such as ACT, DBT, CBT, etc. tailored to your own unique needs. As a South Asian, 2nd Gen. Tamil-Canadian therapist, I work from a culturally-sensitive, trauma-informed lens to support you.

I support clients from all walks of life and inclusivity is the heart of my practice. Regardless of your background, identity, or life experience, you belong here. Healing happens through authentic, compassionate connection, & I’m here to walk with you on your journey. Lets explore how to empower you, build resilience, find balance, and live authentically.

I work with clients who may be feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, challenges in relationships, etc. In our initial sessions, we'll gently explore what's been weighing on you and work together to create a plan that feels right for you. Many clients begin to feel some relief within the first few weeks, and continue to experience progress as we move forward at a pace that feels comfortable.
