You try to hold it together — but inside, you feel anxious, disconnected, or not enough. Maybe you’re struggling in your relationships — giving so much yet feeling unseen — or carrying wounds from the past that still shape how you show up today. I guide individuals and couples to heal relationships, self-doubt, and trauma to move towards meaningful connection, self-worth and peace. I’m a Registered Psychotherapist with 10+ yrs of experience, integrating emotion-focused, attachment & trauma-informed, IFS, and somatic approaches. Together, we’ll explore your story, past hurts, and the parts of you that learned to protect them.
As a Muslim, Pakistani woman, wife, and mother, I hold space with sensitivity to faith, culture, and identity. My practice honours the richness of who you are while helping you navigate life’s complexities with compassion and authenticity. Therapy can be a place where the risk of vulnerability can lead to healing that can be empowering and transformative.
Clients describe me as warm and grounded — someone who listens deeply and brings humour and heart. I love a good cup of tea, a scary movie, and laughter with loved ones. I aim to offer what I hope you’ll cultivate for yourself: curiosity, self-compassion, and belief in your own growth.
