Although I have used Cognitive Behavioural, Psychodynamic, Compassion Focused, Cultutally Sesnitive, Existential, Trauma Focused therapies, I will help my clients explore their most impactful concerns and engage them in the most appropriate treatment plan.
For many of us, it's easy to allow our mental health to take a backseat in our everyday lives. We may rely on distractions but we know that it’s time to look for support when we look to maintain a healthier relationship with our mental health.
I work with seniors, adults, children and teens who are seeking treatment in the management of anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, suicidal ideation, school/work, stress/burnout, women’s issues, couple's issues, and family conflict.
As a Registered Psychotherapist, my hope is to support clients who are looking to address these matters in a safe and stigma-free zone.

Working within a clinical setting on a trauma and neurosurgery unit has provided me with extensive experience helping individuals navigate the complexities of trauma, grief, and recovery. I understand the deep connection between mental health and the psychosocial impact it has on a personal's health and how it can impact overall well-being. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your emotions, gain insight, and develop tools for lasting change. Using an integrative approach I help clients build resilience, and move toward healing and personal growth both individually and in group settings.

Do you feel caught in the crossfire of conflict within your South Asian family? The constant tug-of-war between honouring traditional expectations and pursuing your path can be emotionally draining. Family gatherings may feel like a battlefield, with heated debates over career choices, relationships, or lifestyle choices. This tension often leads to anxiety, avoidance or fear of family events, or people-pleasing that sacrifices your happiness. You may freeze up, feeling like a deer caught in headlights, when confronted about your choices or feel guilty for wanting something different from what is expected.

My practice largely focuses on supporting people who want to learn about and/or manage symptoms related to depression, anxiety or those with traumatic life experiences. This can look like improving mood, managing negative thinking, learning about boundaries as well as addressing repetitious or intrusive traumatic memories. Along with general members of the community, I have also worked with medical professionals, first responders and members of the military who are seeking out therapeutic support while at work or on a leave.

I believe all of us are capable of change at any age with determination and support. I've been an immigrant for half of my life and there were many moments in my life where I felt lonely and worthless. Sense of belonging can be lost and you can experience depression and anxiety. This may affect your sleep, eating habits, or immune system. Art helped me a number of times in these moments. It gave me an opportunity to grow and let me express difficult emotions. Now it is my turn to help others in difficult situations by providing support, relaxation, and opportunity for self-discovery through the creative expression of art therapy.
