iA Financial | Industrial Alliance Therapists in Waterloo, ON
Life doesn't always go according to plan, and sometimes it falls apart entirely. Using EMDR and other evidence-based approaches, I help adults find their footing through infidelity, grief, separation, and identity shifts. I work with clients managing bipolar disorder, OCD, CPTSD, PTSD, and relational issues, offering a space that meets you with honesty and zero judgment. I also provide sex therapy, exploring desire, intimacy, communication, and sexual functioning, and support couples through ENM, relational repair, and everything in between. You deserve care that sees all of you.

I believe therapy should feel like a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine connection. I work with addiction and Borderline Personality Disorder, as well as clients navigating anxiety, stress, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, and life transitions, with a particular focus on adolescents and young adults building self-understanding. I aim to help clients feel understood while building insight, emotional regulation, and healthier coping strategies, at a pace that feels right for each person.

For those navigating two worlds. Where family expectations, cultural identity, and your own needs don't always speak the same language.
I work with individuals, couples, and teens (14+) with anxiety, relationship issues, infidelity, self-esteem struggles, trauma, depression, and life transitions.
Maybe it's the same fight with your partner, showing up in a new way. Or maybe it's a feeling like rest has to be earned, or living up to expectations that were never yours.
I'm a Registered Psychotherapist with 8+ years of experience in Waterloo and Toronto. I can help you build something steadier than the patterns you're stuck in.

Life can be downright difficult, disappointing, stressful and unfair at times at times. But there is no reason to struggle through life’s challenges alone, or give up because the feeling of being stuck can make you feel powerless. If you are seeking help individually, as a couple, or a family, I strive to make you feel understood in a supportive, warm and sensitive manner as we discuss, explore and develop deeper insights into your current challenges. I encourage you to visit my website to learn more. Individual sessions are 50 minutes in duration, couples are 80 minutes.

You know something needs to change, but you are not sure where to start. Maybe you are exhausted from the pressure of work, running on empty, or moving through a transition that has left you feeling unsteady. I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, stress, depression, and life transitions, including career changes, relationship shifts, and those stretching moments of uncertainty about what comes next. If you have spent years putting everyone else first and are ready to understand yourself better and build a life with more clarity and balance, you are in the right place.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or carrying responsibilities that have left little room for their own wellbeing. At Kasike Counselling, we work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, identity, and burnout. Our role isn’t to tell people who they should become—it’s to help them reconnect with the clarity, confidence, and inner leadership they already possess so they can move forward with purpose.

Reaching out for support can feel like a big step. You may be carrying grief, navigating a life transition, or feeling strain in your relationships or family. You might be used to holding a lot on your own and are now looking for a space where you can speak openly and feel supported. You don’t have to navigate this alone.

Healing often begins with learning to treat yourself with the same compassion you already offer everyone else. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, body image concerns, perfectionism, work stress, and relationship challenges. My clients often arrive feeling disconnected from themselves, struggling to trust their own voice or feel confident in who they are. Whether you are dealing with social pressure, family dynamics, dating, or the quiet weight of self-criticism, this is a space where you can begin to reconnect with yourself.

The ways we learn to cope often make perfect sense given what we have been through. Over time, those same patterns can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, attachment injuries, infidelity, and the lasting effects of sexual abuse and assault. If you are caught in patterns you cannot seem to shift, or carrying something that has never felt fully safe to explore, this is a space built for exactly that work.

It's 3am again. You woke up two hours ago and your mind hasn't stopped - tomorrow's to-do list, the thing you said in the meeting that landed wrong, whether you remembered to RSVP for the birthday party, whether that email you sent at 8pm was too direct. Somehow you thought you'd feel "happy" and "together" by now, but instead you're filled with dread. You did everything the responsible way - the degree, the career, the calendar that runs everyone's life - and now your body keeps a schedule you didn't pick. Nothing technically "looks" broken. But is this the life you actually want? You're just running on empty and you know it

You might be navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, or a life transition that has left you feeling stuck or unsure of yourself. I work with adolescents and adults aged 13 and up on a range of concerns including relationship difficulties, self-esteem challenges, and the kind of stress that builds quietly until it becomes hard to ignore. My clients often arrive knowing something needs to change but not quite knowing where to start. That is exactly where we begin, together, at a pace that works for you.

Accepting New Clients! - You need a therapist who actually "gets" your unique brain.

You've tried all the things - meditation, journaling, breathwork, medication, positive thinking, you've read all the therapy insta posts but you're still stuck. You have felt this way for a while, and are not only ready, but are fully committed to making a real change

As someone diagnosed with OCD since childhood, I understand this struggle personally. I know what it's like being stuck in cycles of intrusive thoughts, repetitive rituals, endless "what ifs" and replaying scenarios over and over in your head, checking for evidence that something terrible has or may happen. I know the suffering that OCD can cause. I also know recovery is possible.
