Specialized Training:
: I have a Masters in Social Work with a specialization in Disability Studies along with a Hons. B.Sc. in Life Sciences and Physiotherapy Assistant Diploma. My culturally sensitive therapy practice is catered to individuals with and without disabilities that are over the age of 18. I have prior experience in trauma and crisis counseling; grief and loss support, providing therapy to individuals fleeing domestic /intimate partner violence and abuse. I have also extensively worked with individuals from marginalized, racialized, and low-income communities especially from the South Asian, Black, and LGBTQ2IA+ communities. My therapy is informed by therapeutic modalities like Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, CBT, DBT, Mindfulness-based therapies, EFT tapping, and Breath & Body Work.
Personal Statement:
: Thank you for visiting my profile and considering how I can support you. My practice is rooted in the belief "Your mind is a garden. Your thoughts are the seeds. You can grow flowers or you can grow weeds.” My work as a therapist will focus on supporting you to grow the right seeds in the garden of your mind. In order to do that, I work from a client-centered, strength-based, and solution-focused approach. Focusing on the holistic nature of your life, together, we will embark on a journey looking at the various systems (mental, emotional, physical, social, environmental, spiritual, cultural) that might be relevant to you and your goals. I provide a safe, nurturing, inclusive and confidential environment for you to explore your emotions, thoughts, and feelings. I provide a free 20-minute initial consultation. I also provide video and phone counseling. If your financial situation is a barrier for you to seek therapeutic supports, I do offer a reduced rate (sliding scale) to a limited number of clients in need. Please get in touch with me to know more on how to get your mind's garden blooming!
