Therapists in Bond Head, ON

As your therapist, I will cultivate a safe space for you in deeply unhappy, uncomfortable, or unfulfilled moments, to address all that challenges you. Together, we will navigate new ways for you to be able to thrive in your own resilience, creativity, and resourcefulness. We'll be collaborators in your healing process, and I'll maintain a flexible response to your changing needs. I believe that when you feel safe, heard, and at ease within an empathetic and understanding environment, you will be able to unburden your past suffering, and explore coping methods that work best for your present struggles.

Reaching out for support can be difficult—I commend you for the courage to see what therapy can offer! As a person of colour and member of the LGBTQ+ communities, I have lived experience and special insight into what it’s like to navigate the unique challenges that come with intersectionality. I have a background in working with sexual health, resilience, wellbeing and challenges that uniquely affect intersecting persons of colour, gender and sexuality. I’m grateful to have supported many folx who went through a difficult time in their life, dealt with a mental health concern, or wanted to explore more about themselves.

Welcome! I see clients both in-person and virtually. My approach is led by a belief that feeling deeply is what makes us human and that we all can benefit from shining light on areas that need more love and compassion on our healing journey. I specialize and work with clients who experience anxiety, people pleasing tendencies, perfectionism, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges (romantic, family and friends), and difficulties with regulating emotions. As a child of immigrants, I also hold space in sessions to discuss the impact of intergenerational trauma and ancestral burdens.

I believe that asking for help and being vulnerable takes great courage. Therefore, by establishing a healthy therapeutic relationship through a non-judgemental, empathetic, collaborative, and psychodynamic approach, I help you unpack what may be at the core of your concerns and improve your ability to cope with the challenges that brought you to therapy.

Banupriya has a strong commitment to being helpful, no matter the approach. Her approach to psychotherapy is integrative and is rooted in the belief that longstanding difficulties in our relationships with ourselves and others have their origins in our early developmental experiences. These difficulties may include abandonment anxiety, perfectionism, conflicts about dependence, difficulty being vulnerable with others, challenges asserting boundaries, feeling stuck in unsatisfying relationship patterns, and excessive self-blame.

Trauma, loneliness, and pain are a part of life. We can't choose when these experiences find us, but we can choose how we respond and maybe even open new paths.

Do you feel trapped in a cycle of strained relationship? You feel like people in your life are pushing your triggers and it is causing you more distress than bringing you peace. This type of anxiety, anger, stress, sadness can take a toll on you. No matter what you are doing, you end up feeling like the bad person every single time. You feel like you are not enough in the relationship and you feel like you are the only one wanting this relationship to work. When there is past trauma or the other person is not willing to work with you, healing and moving forward becomes harder. We start wondering if we are the problem.

Dr. Khan has completed her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and is registered in supervised practice with the College of Psychologists of Ontario.

Our struggles with life and mental health often make us forget how to offer compassion and kindness to ourselves. While we "demonize" our body's response to seemingly easy "routine" functions, therapy can help us understand & recognize how our experiences have shaped our survival strategies and ways of being. My practice is grounded in my work in community-based mental health programs, as well as lived experience of systemic issues. I draw on EMDR, internal family systems, somatic and anti-oppressive approaches, based on the individual/couple's needs. I have specialized training in working with trauma, abuse and relationships.

I have been working in the clinical field for 13 years and have extensive experience working with adult and adolescent clients, helping them deal with issues such as: anxiety, complex trauma, addiction, depression, postpartum depression, and family/relationship issues. I employ an integrative approach to psychotherapy, utilizing techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). As well as Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT-C) for Couples.

Therapy with me, is a chance to understand your complicated feelings, emotions and desires and discover how to make choices that work for you. You can move from being disconnected, alienated and alone to being active, lively and engaged with the world.
