Therapists in Milton, ON

Are you struggling with troubling thoughts or feeling stuck in life? Looking for clarity through difficult past or present? Please feel free to reach out. I am a registered psychotherapist, and I believe in empowering my clients with new skills and perspectives so they can grow and realize their own potential. My approach is client centred, and rooted in the idea of cultivating love and kindness for one self. Within the safety of our sessions, together we can examine and work on areas of your life that need kind attention.

Clarity is my hope for each person I see, whether we use Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy, Narrative approaches, EMDR, Mindfulness, yoga, polyvagal theory, or creative arts expression. Regardless if your struggle is with depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, or trauma, clarity means a better awareness and understanding of yourself in the current situation. Knowing yourself allows you to make choices best for you, consciously. It can be challenging to unravel and understand all of the often conflicting messages we hear and give ourselves, but it is crucial. This is the work I will support and guide you in.

The pressure is soul-crushing. Life looks great on paper but you’re burnt out. You were expected to be the perfect child. Speak and act right, best the best, achieve. Mistakes meant you failed. As an adult, there’s no room for rest. You’ll be bored. Seen as weak. It’s exhausting keeping up the façade. You’ve tried therapy to help with your stress, overwhelming thoughts, and unhappiness, but you were overbooked. You tried to squeeze it in, but finding the right therapist who didn’t judge felt impossible. I understand because I’ve been where you are. I was bullied at school and work, told “Get lost you Paki, go home to your country.”

Are you experiencing anxious thoughts, depressed mood, or finding it hard to adjust to major life transitions? Do unwanted and intrusive thoughts and feelings hinder your ability to fully engage in a meaningful life? Are you finding it challenging to cope with uncertainty in your life? Are you currently facing emotional challenges related to pregnancy or postpartum experience? We'll take time to discover your strengths and work towards your journey.

I have worked in the field of mental health for years within many respected organizations such as the Centre for Addition and Mental Health, Trillium Healthcare Partners and I currently work as a Therapist within Halton Health Care. I have started my own part time private practice in the Milton area. I specialize with helping people move forward by overcoming issues related to anxiety and depression by utilizing an integrated approach to practice and specifically Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques. I work with teens, adults and couples and can help you overcome issues related to anger, low self-esteem, depression, relationship conflict and anxiety.

You search for therapists but don’t know if you will go through the session because you’re afraid of what you might discover? Sometimes you may not even know why you feel the way you do. As a full time working mother, I get how hard it is to always be stressed, to feel frustrated, and overwhelmed. It’s hard prioritizing mental health when you are already burdened with so many responsibilities whether finances, home, kids, school, or work. Except, when you finally do put yourself first you realize how liberating it is...to be in control of your emotions, to have the coping mechanisms to help you through the difficult days...
