Therapists in M6H

Early life experiences can shape the way we think and feel about ourselves, and influence our way of being in the world. To get through difficult times, we put strategies in place, and while they're helpful at the time, they can long overstay their welcome and usefulness. Psychotherapy can help make sense of what was, what is and what's possible, making space for positive change. It can assist people struggling with depression, anxiety, anger or simply being stuck, by bringing awareness to the patterns and issues that have been standing in the way of living a fuller life.

It is highly unlikely that anyone gets through life without some type of challenge at some time in his or her life. Individuals who seek therapy are serious about addressing these challenges in order to live a more balanced, fulfilling life. We work with our clients to first understand the issue, explore options and to form new understanding of themselves and their experience. We view our work with our clients as highly valuable and of critical importance to the overall health and stability throughout the lifespan.

I've worked as a psychotherapist with youth, adults and caregivers in community mental health settings for over ten years. I use an integrative approach in my practice and draw from a range of therapeutic modalities depending on your specific needs, your situation and your hopes for therapy. This could include elements of attachment-based and relational approaches, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, CBT and DBT therapies, Narrative Therapy and Trauma-Informed practices.

You are on your way to deeper growth. I know because you are on this site, actively looking for support. Well done, you. Although, right now it may still feel a little rough. Fair enough. Being human is hard. Regardless of your very human issue: trauma from the past; stuckness in life; relationship issues; out of control anxiety and stress; chronic illness; career struggles; or just feeling lost and confused, the key to moving forward lies within you. Looking inward to see your own values and beliefs is the beginning to accessing your strengths to continue to grow and thrive.

Everyone has different reasons for seeking therapy and reaching out for help is an important and courageous first step. I believe in empowering you by acknowledging and working with your strengths. Therapy sessions with me are creative, and integrated, and I weave in elements of mindfulness as influenced by my two decades of experience practicing yoga and mindfulness. I draw from ACT-informed practices, as well as CBT, Attachment-focused, and relational psychotherapy. My experience as a mother of four also informs my worldview, as I believe in being grounded and practical.

Anger, anxiety, depression, family conflict, domestic violence, acute and chronic/complex trauma comprise some of the challenges individuals experience in their lives. If you are a person struggling with any of these issues and/or experience other mental health concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out for a brief chat to discuss whether I am the right therapist for you. I am a Registered Master of Social Worker (MSW, RSW) with over 25 years of extensive experience serving complex mental health needs for individuals, couples, and families. I offer services in English, Bengali, Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu.

Therefore, together we can work collaboratively to create a safe and trustworthy environment and develop personalized goals and strategies that are informed by evidence-based practices. My approach centers on gaining more insight into the obstacles you are encountering right and providing you with tools and support to overcome challenges. My aim is to help you tap into your inherent strength and resilience, allowing you to create new possibilities.

Life transitions and expectations can be overwhelming. Maybe you are wearing many hats and feel like you've lost yourself balancing everyone else's needs. Or perhaps the losses you have faced are so heavy that it feels almost impossible to take the next step. I have over a decade of experience supporting individuals and families from diverse backgrounds who face challenges with relationships, grief or parenting. My experience includes supporting first and second-generation immigrants and mixed-raced individuals from a cross-cultural lens that addresses Identity, belonging, and intergenerational healing.

I am accepting NEW patients for phone/video sessions. Asking for support is a courageous first step in managing your mental health & wellness. It is easy to get stuck in unhelpful thought patterns that do not serve us. The good news is, we have more control over our thoughts and feelings than it may seem. You can learn to take charge of your behaviour with the right tools & techniques, to live a more fulfilled & happy life. I will work collaboratively with you to help set achievable goals that support empowerment, capacity building & resiliency. I aim to create a safe environment where we can have relaxed & authentic conversations.

It may be that you are struggling with meeting your own needs due to focusing on others. You are ready to focus on your healing.

It takes courage opening up to another person. My role as a therapist is to meet you where you are, honouring your lived experience and values. With compassion and non-judgment, we will explore your story and begin your journey of self-discovery and healing in a safe and supportive space. My approach is grounded in anti-oppressive, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed frameworks that centers you as the expert of your own experiences​. In individual therapy, I firmly believe in fostering a strength-based, empowerment-centered, identity-affirming change process that actualizes self-reflection, liberation, and resilience.

You must be exhausted; whether it be depression, anxiety, disordered eating, low self-worth, or anything else in between, being stuck in the cycle of "not good enough" can make anyone feel unsafe and unassured in their future. Through an anti-oppressive and healing-centered lens, I emphasize the importance of a supportive, open, and warm therapeutic space. Let's build the safety and security needed to make your healing happen.
