I believe everyone has strengths, support, and a desire for growth. Such support needs to encompass unconditional positive regard and understanding. It is important to meet clients where they are and strive towards their goals with compassion, while gently challenging beliefs. I believe that all clients have a unique perspective of their situation, which is rooted in their identity, values, and culture. My previous work with disadvantaged populations and clients on their grief journey taught me that the challenges individuals face are contextualized to their sociocultural positionality, identity, and relationship dynamics.

My approach to counselling is client-centred, strengths-based, evidence-based, and culturally responsive to meet client needs. I draw from Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Let’s discover your strength and resilience together to get closer to your goals. I recognize client outcomes are associated with a good fit between the therapist and client. Therefore, I offer a 15-minute, no-cost phone consultation so we can get to know each other before a session. I offer therapy in English and Punjabi.
