I am a dedicated and compassionate person with a strong commitment to helping individuals navigate life's challenges and find their path towards fulfillment and emotional well-being. I am in the process of completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and am being supervised by Danielle Ritsema, MSW, RSW. I am registered with the CRPO (College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario) as a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). This status signifies my ongoing journey to accumulate supervised clinical hours, working towards becoming a fully licensed psychotherapist.

My mission is to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. I am passionate about holistic well-being and approach my work through a Biopsychosocial and cultural framework. I have worked in the field of healthcare and social services in various capacities including being an employment counsellor for a number of years. In addition to working with the general population, I am experienced in working with refugees, newcomers, international students, youth and Indigenous folks. I am fluent in English, Punjabi and Hindi, and also have a working knowledge of Urdu. 

My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and collaboration. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to help you uncover your unique strengths and solutions. I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, tailoring my approach to your specific needs and goals through a person-centered culturally sensitive lens. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal growth, I am here to support you on your journey to healing and mental wellbeing.

Taking the first step toward seeking help is a courageous decision, and I commend you for considering therapy as a way to enhance your well-being. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a session, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to meeting you!
