Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in Ottawa, ON

The healing process is unique to each person. While many go through similar events, not everyone experiences them in the same way. I view my clients through a holistic lens to develop a collaborative, therapeutic relationship. I help my clients develop healthy ways to manage distress, find ways to move out of being stuck, develop new insight for unresolved issues, and increase overall wellbeing. My primary focus is working with clients who have experienced trauma. Because the nature of trauma is complex, I use an integrative, person-centered approach to meet my clients' needs at their pace and readiness.

As a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist who’s trauma-informed, my work focuses on helping clients re-establish and rebuild safety with their emotions, their body and to assimilate challenging experiences.

(PLEASE NOTE: I AM CURRENTLY UNABLE TO ACCEPT NEW CLIENTS). I am a registered psychologist providing assessment and treatment to adults for common psychological problems as well as physical health problems or emotional issues and traumas. Physical health problems include chronic or terminal illnesses, medical conditions exacerbated by stress, and physical symptoms that doctors are unable to fully explain or treat (e.g., chronic pain, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivities). Emotional issues include childhood or adult experiences of abuse or neglect, couple or family-related stressors, work-related stressors, challenging life transitions and loss or bereavement issues.

Hello I am a welcoming, attentive clinician with a natural knack for relationship building.

I have over eight years of experience counselling individuals from predominantly person-centered and narrative approaches with specific focus placed on developing treatment to fit each client's unique needs and personality. I am confident working with anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional effects of chronic pain,

As human beings, life exposes us to many ups and downs. A psychotherapist with a mind-body and sociological lens can be a beneficial ally to us in riding the waves of life and cultivating a clear and peaceful mind so that we can respond (vs. react) to life. It is my passion to be of service to others by creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere that supports a peaceful mind, happiness, and overall wellbeing. My approach is holistic, comprehensive, and therapeutic for the purposes of promoting healing, positive personal growth, and development.

I use an integrative approach that is tailored to the mental health needs of each client. I draw from various evidence-based approaches such as psychodynamic therapy, emotionally-focused therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, attachment-oriented treatment approaches, and EMDR.

Hi there and welcome to my practice! I specialize in working with women and youth from an evidence-based, empathetic and down-to-earth approach. My goal is to foster an environment of safety and openness where we can work together on one or multiple issues. I primarily focus on "parts" work. That means learning about the different parts of ourselves, including those that are stuck, hurt or reactive, in order to facilitate healing and respond to situations from a place of calm, compassion and confidence. I also believe in the benefits of humour and laughter, and allowing space for it in session!

Since 2001, I have supported individuals and couples to deal with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, work place stress, burnout, sexual and relationship and self-esteem issues, and existential issues related to meaning and purpose. I can help you deal with couple problems (e.g., intimacy, communication), repair your relationship after injuries, such as affairs or betrayals, and improve your sex life. I have presented at national conferences and published book chapters and peer-reviewed journal articles in the area of couples and sex therapy. I can support you to build a more, secure resilient self and strengthen your relationships.

People come to see me to heal from past trauma, to find ways to face challenges of today and to grow into who they long to be. Many are wrestling with the effects of that trauma on their day to day lives and relationships. Some who come to see me struggle with questions of meaning and faith. Some wrestle with issues of guilt and shame and seek healing on that deep level. All are looking to walk strong on their path.

It's time to break the stigma. South Asian mental health is often overlooked and stigmatized by cultural and religious upbringing and family expectations. Shanti Psychotherapy was founded to create a collective of like minded and skilled therapists. Our intention is to help our community break free of the stigma associated with mental health issues, and to offer a comfortable, compassionate therapy experience.

Welcome! Congratulations on taking the time to explore the possibility of receiving some support in your mental health journey. Reaching out for support can be challenging, and I commend your courage in taking the time to care for yourself. We all have a 'mental health', and we all deserve a space of non-judgment and empathy to explore what we may need to survive and hopefully recover from the challenges life has presented us with. I would be honoured to walk with you in your process of making sense of your experiences, traumas, challenges and finding your unique pathway through the ups and downs of being human in a complex world.

It's not just you, life HAS gotten harder in the last few years. If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.
