Self-Harming Therapists in M9B

I am a doctoral level psychologist with 12 years of clinical and research experience. I provide assessment, therapy, and consultation to help children, adolescents, and adults through academic, social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties. By building a genuine and caring therapeutic relationship, I help clients adapt and grow when faced with challenges. I also guide my clients to tap into their strengths so that they can make the most comfortable choices in order to move forward. Along the way, we work together to create new strategies while modifying existing ones so that clients and their families will become more resilient.

Having lived in Asia and now in Canada has blessed me with an acute ability to appreciate multicultural differences and understand diverse issues to help you in your path to emotional healing. I work with people who have experienced trauma, or are struggling with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, ADHD, OCD and other mental health disorders. I also work with people who are experiencing interpersonal relationship issues, career challenges, self-esteem issues, anger management issues, and other life's challenges.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed lately by your emotions and life demands? Do you sometimes feel like you have exhausted your coping resources and are stuck with where you are? Life can throw us many challenges and obstacles. Emotions, memories and thoughts - it can all be so overwhelming when we are trying to make change happen. I GET it and I'm here for you! I take a holistic approach to counselling therapy. I offer individual and couple's counselling for people struggling with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, loss of identity, grief, etc.

Stress feels like it's coming from all angles 24/7. Whether it's school, work, family, friends or something you can't quite put your finger on, it can feel inescapable & hopeless. That same experience, knowledge & unique set of skills that you bring with you is just as important as the therapy itself. Furthermore, the effectiveness of a strength-based approach in a calming, therapeutic space that is collaborative, transparent & trauma-informed can provide an excellent starting point to attain your goals.

Everyone’s story matters, and we all deserve a place to share it that is comfortable and non-judgmental. I believe that each person is an expert in their own life. As a therapist, it is my goal to bear witness to your story and help you navigate your current challenges, as well as deepen your knowledge, understanding, appreciation, and acceptance of yourself and others. I am a trauma-informed therapist who uses a client-centered approach, working with different modalities tailored to meet each client's unique needs.

I employ assessments to gain insight into the unique needs of my clients. Together, we collaboratively define achievable goals, laying the foundation for our work ahead. By offering a combination of psychoeducation and unwavering support, I guide clients on their journey toward realizing these goals. Struggling to identify the right goals is a common challenge. Many individuals falter in achieving their aspirations because their goals are often framed in ways that are unattainable. Drawing upon my expertise, I specialize in assisting individuals in discerning practical and manageable steps that align with their deepest desires.

Are your thoughts taking control? Not feeling yourself? Experienced something tough recently that you can't seem to get past? Going through family struggles, relationship conflict or communication breakdown? Or are you looking for help for a child or teen? Sometimes life struggles can become roadblocks that prevent us from working towards our goals and living our best, most fulfilling lives. As a therapist, I want to help you work through those roadblocks. I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental, and collaborative space to help you work through struggles, achieve your goals and get back to a fulfilling, meaningful life.

Therapy ver. Do you wanna build a snowman?-Knock, knock! Do you wanna feel better? Come on, let's talk. I am eager to meet you, please open the door. It's like you are isolating yourself. I know you’ve been feeling blue, and now it's time, I wish you would tell me why. Do you wanna feel better? It doesn't need to be better (feeling okay would be fine). Do you wanna feel better? Or have control over your life? I think some company is overdue, and I've started thinking of you! (Hang in there, gal/pal. ) The world gets a little lonely for people who don't ask for help, just watching time flying by.

Hi There! Are you ready to dive deep? Are you ready to make changes in your life? I offer a respectful safe space with a wealth of life and professional experience to draw upon. I value authenticity, transparency and pace the therapuetic process to suit your needs and goals. As one of my colleagues recently commented after observing me in a practice session: I offer "palpable unconditional positive regard." If you are ready to be seen, heard and make change, I am here for you.

Are you struggling to make changes in your life? Are you experiencing problems within your relationships? You may feel stuck, lost, sad, exhausted and burnt out. It is difficult to navigate life's many challenges if we are not taking care of ourselves in all areas of our life. This includes physically, emotionally, spiritually, mentally and financially.

These days EVERYTHING and NOTHING has changed. The pandemic impacted us all differently. Lockdowns were heavenly for some and devastating for others. Many are exhausted from the past couple years having to navigate dramatic and unexpected changes to daily life, employment, finances, school, parenting, relationships, hobbies, etc. If the ways you normally managed life aren't available anymore, aren't working anymore, are sabatoging your relationships or are just plain unhealthy, then maybe it's time to take a look at how you cope?

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.

I am a South- Asian therapist who grew up in the Middle East as an immigrant. I support adolescents(13+) and adults in their 20s and 30s. I believe every person is inherently driven toward and has the capacity for growth when in the right environment. While working together collaboratively, you can expect a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space allowing for self-reflection and self-understanding. I can help you focus and build on your strengths and supports, look for new perspectives, learn skills, and use them to work on yourself and your overall mental health.

Welcome! I am a bilingual counselor and I specialize in couples counselling. In a safe, warm and non-judgmental manner, I can help couples improve their relationship, enhance communication, re-establish trust, and deal more positively with daily stresses such as finances, parenting styles and family conflict. I work in particular with couples trying to reconstruct their relationship after an affair.

Does anxiety run your life? Are you always ready and waiting for the other shoe to drop? You fear that you won’t be able to cope and worry that you’ll lose control of your thoughts, emotions, and actions. Maybe you feel stuck in the past, haunted by painful experiences; churning over the same thoughts and images again and again. Imagine moving out of survival mode; being excited about life and feeling motivated by joy and not fear. Imagine being able to put the past behind you, and living fully in the present. You don't have to struggle alone. With compassion and authenticity, I am honoured to join you on your healing journey!

Therapy is not so much as "what do you need from me", but rather, "what do you need from you?" Who would you like to be for yourself? My humanistic background compels me to believe that clients often carry potential for growth that may be nurtured by the therapeutic relationship. While the specifics of clients' issues may vary, ultimately, many of us wish to be heard and understood. Although therapy may be directive at times, I often allow clients to lead and exercise their capacity for change.

I work with adults in individual therapy. I can help bring awareness to the specific obstacles that may be preventing you from living a more fulfilling life. Together, we can make shifts in your relationship with yourself, others, and the world around you that will support your goals. I will provide you with both a nurturing environment and the necessary tools for you to explore what's possible and move beyond what's currently holding you back from continued growth. Together, we’ll work through internal and external barriers so that you can develop strong coping mechanisms and skills that you can rely on.
