About…

As a child of immigrant parents who sought refuge in Canada due to war, I understand the complexities of navigating multiple cultural identities, intergenerational trauma, and balancing expectations. Growing up, I witnessed firsthand the challenges my family faced—language barriers, cultural disconnects in healthcare, and the struggle to access mental health support that truly understood our experiences. These moments shaped my passion for providing accessible, client-centered therapy through a socially just and culturally informed lens. I am committed to creating a space where clients feel seen, understood, and valued.

As a Pre-Licensed Professional and MA in Counselling Psychology student under supervision, I understand how overwhelming it can be to carry self-doubt and responsibility while navigating two cultural worlds. I offer a compassionate space where all parts of you are welcome as we explore your story and build a future aligned with your values.

I integrate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) to support my clients in meaningful ways: 

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to distress. Together, we will work on recognizing negative thinking patterns and developing healthier ways to cope with challenges.
  • Narrative Therapy: An approach that explores and reshapes your life story. I will help you reauthor your experiences in a way that highlights your strengths, resilience, and personal growth.
  • Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT): Focuses on strengths and possibilities, helping clients identify goals and build on what is already working in their lives to create positive change. Our sessions will center on practical steps you can take to move forward, emphasizing your existing abilities and successes.

I’m here to support you, recognize your strengths, and help you build a future that reflects your values and goals. If this resonates with you, feel free to book a complimentary 30-minute consultation.
