Welcome!

Maybe you’ve been thinking about starting therapy
or wanting more significant change from your therapeutic journey

Maybe something in your life feels heavy right now,
too much to hold on your own.
You might be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, misaligned in your life, distressed relationally — or just ready for things to shift internally, externally.

Whatever brought you here, you don’t have to figure it out alone – let’s see if what I offer is a good fit for you; if together,
we can make more sense of things and make the changes you’re wanting.

I work with individuals who are curious about their inner lives and ready to work toward meaningful change.

You might be looking for talk therapy to better understand yourself, develop new tools, and find more effective ways to navigate life. Or you may feel ready to go deeper — turning toward core emotional or relational experiences through psychotherapy that supports the processing of unresolved material, so there’s ultimately less to carry and manage.

Let’s Begin
If something here resonates, email me to book a free consultation. We’ll take some time to connect, answer your questions, and see if working together feels like the right fit.

You don’t have to navigate this alone. Support is here when you're ready.

I also work with organizations to facilitate workshops on mental health and well being for groups and employees – find out more here.

About Me

ABOUT ME

Born in India, I grew up in Mi'kma'ki (colonially known as Nova Scotia), and now call Tkaronto home.

I was raised in a family that paid attention to power and privilege and the effects of it on people's ability to survive and thrive.

I've consistently sought to learn about systems of power and privilege, inequity and inequality, in large global scale contexts and in our everyday human interactions - and how all of these intersect and dance together in the complex, beautiful and hard layers of life we experience.

I work hard to continuously unlearn oppressive ways of being that we grow up internalizing. I'm committed to this deeply reflexive and accountable work personally as a way of life and my professional practice is part of that. I strive to co-create a therapeutic relationship and space that centers a person and where they are at with my utmost integrity, ethics and wholehearted presence, alongside skill and care.

I am an immigrant settler on this colonized land and within systems that continue to perpetuate systemic harm and ongoing genocide to indigenous people. I dream of a decolonial, anti-capitalist, anti-exploitative and anti-oppressive world were everyone has the means and support to take care of themselves, each other and creatively thrive in liberation. In the meantime, I muddle through, trying to disrupt systems of harm and create and live in systems of care as best as I can, as I learn and grow more towards that which I dream of.

I am a caste-privileged, queer, woc (she/her), who has come to my clinical practice from a place of figuring out where my skills and passion best meet empowerment, social justice and change. I have always sought roles that enable me to expand my capacity to be with people in a way they needed and yet also fit with what I could offer.

Ultimately, my own therapy journey lead me to develop my clinical skills professionally.

The therapeutic frameworks I offer and have trained in, are ones that I also benefit from in my personal therapy experience and therefore I resonate deeply with, beyond my clinical training.

THERAPEUTIC APPROACH

I work from a humanistic perspective. To me, this means: people are inherently good and try their best while developing protective ways of navigating through life that may not serve them when they aim to thrive and not just survive.

I welcome folks as you are, however you identify, orient and present.

I am sex/kink positive, body positive, 2SLGBTQQIA+ affirming,
and work with people in relationships of varying romantic and intimate structures.

I work from an anti-oppressive, anti-black racism, decolonial, feminist and systems perspectives that inform how larger and smaller systems and ways of being, weave together to shape our experiences.

I am trauma informed
I use an Attachment Theory lens
I'm trained in EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy),
along with parts work frameworks
- informed by IFS (Internal Family Systems)
- and Structural Dissociation Theory.

Alongside talk therapy, I provide psychotherapy with a focus in:

Parts Work - Structural Dissociation and Internal Family Systems IFS [Since 2019]
EMDR - Eye Motion Desensitizing Reprocessing [Since 2019]
DBR - Deep Brain Re-Orienting [Since 2021]

Combined with talk therapy, these modalities help people move beyond managing their day to day experiences towards resolving past undigested content - so that they have less to manage.

I am licensed and a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers
with a Masters in Social Work, a B.Ed in Outdoor and Experiential Education,
and a B.A in International Development Studies (converted to global power and inequity studies).
