Accepting New Clients

I am a passionate counselling therapist dedicated to supporting individuals on their journey to healing and self-discovery. As a multilingual professional fluent in English, Hindi, and Gujarati, I strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone feels understood and valued.

My diverse background as a teacher, school counsellor, psychologist, and yoga trainer has equipped me with a holistic perspective that allows me to see beyond the challenges my clients face. I specialize in assisting couples and adults with:

Coping Skills
Behavioural Issues
Cultural Adjustment
Depression
Anxiety
Trauma Recovery (including PTSD)
Relationship Issues
Addiction
Self-Esteem Rebuilding

By employing evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI), I empower my clients to harness their inner resilience and navigate life’s complexities.

Holding a Ph.D. (equivalent to a doctorate in Canada), along with a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in psychology and a diploma in Counselling Psychology and yoga education from Gujarat, India, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to my practice. I am particularly passionate about serving BIPOC and 2SLGBTQ+ communities, ensuring that my therapeutic approach is culturally attuned and empathetic.

When I’m not working with clients, you can find me immersed in classical dance, yoga, painting, graphic design, or experimenting in the kitchen. These creative outlets enrich my life and inform my therapeutic practice, allowing me to bring a unique, compassionate perspective to each client’s healing journey.
