I am a strong believer that the mind is everything, and what you think, you can become. With the right tools one can make significant, and positive changes in personal growth. I believe seeking help is not a weakness, but a strength. I understand the complexities that people face in stressful situations, and work with clients to help resolve them whether that is your mood, thoughts, motivation, relationships, work, career or anything else that is important to you. I have a vast range of experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, domestic violence, custody and access issues, cultural, and intergenerational issues. 

​

I am registered in both British Columbia and Alberta as a Psychologist. I have worked in different front-line positions with those suffering with mental health problems related to trauma, family, relationships, substance misuse, parental and intergenerational trauma. This experience has informed my practice which uses a trauma and strength-based approach along with cognitive-behavioural and dialectical behavioural therapies, as well as an incorporation of mindfulness practice.

​

The ability to reach out shows resiliency to the temporary problem that one is enduring. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them establish and achieve their goals.

Therapy can be provided in English, and Punjabi.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor. My goal is to assist my clients in discovering the versions of themselves they aspire to become. In doing so, I work with my clients to understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours so that they can go forward and make changes that can improve their lives meaningfully and positively. My passion is to help my clients to feel supported, validated, and understood, with a more precise grasp of their challenges and everything that goes along. I prioritize the relationship between the therapist and the client and our teamwork when working with clients.

I have eight years of professional experience working with families and children with special needs, including those with ASD, OCD, ODD, ADHD, depression, anxiety, and much more. During sessions, I help clients identify obstacles to their goals and develop workable strategies and techniques. Child and youth counselling, anxiety, couples and family counselling are some of my key focus areas.

My approach to therapy includes cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), humanistic, and emotion-focused therapy (EFT). For my clients to achieve their goals, I use the client’s strengths to develop a treatment plan that works best for each individual and their journey.

I am currently accepting new clients.

I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) and Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC).

My framework for practice is informed by training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Mentalization Based Therapy (MBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I offer a safe and accepting space that honours the expertise of clients’ strengths and experience. I encourage clients through clarifying therapy goals and identifying any barriers in the way of living a life worth living.
