Do you seem calm on the outside but feel unsettled or hyperaware inside? Do you find yourself overworking or people‑pleasing due to family roles? Before moving to Canada, I worked for 5+ years as a Clinical Psychologist in Pakistan, supporting parents and children. That experience gave me deep understanding of how unresolved hurt—whether women’s issues, paternal identity, or marital struggles—can echo across families and communities. Now, as a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) I bring my international clinical experience and help adults untangle those patterns, calm their nervous system and create healthier ways forward.
My immigration journey uprooted my foundations, compelling me to redefine my identity. From that experience, I bring steadiness and empathy to clients who feel unmoored or disconnected from their sense of self. Using an attachment-based and trauma-informed lens, I support clients in finding self-compassion and reconciling different parts of their identity.
If you seek ways to dial down constant alertness, embrace your needs over perfection and nurture resilient self-trust, I'd be honored to hold space for you. I offer a free 30-minute consultation to help you see if this feels like the right fit.

I work with individuals navigating the effects of trauma, complex family dynamics, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. Our work together usually starts with understanding your story and identifying what feels most difficult right now. Over time, you can expect to deepen your self-understanding, gain new ways to manage emotions, and reconnect with your sense of agency and meaning.
