Kiran has 25 years of experience in trauma-informed mental health approaches with neurodivergent and neurotypical children, youth and families. Kiran believes that every individual and family is unique with inherent strengths and abilities and the capacity to heal and thrive. She works with clients from a collaborative, engaging and strengths-based approach so that they may walk through life with a better understanding of themselves and the ways in which they can address challenges they are experiencing.
Kiran uses evidence-based counselling approaches, including CBT; DBT; EFT (emotionally-focused therapy; EFFT (emotion-focused family therapy); and expressive play therapy. She uses a combination of talk therapy, expressive arts and play, mindfulness, trauma processing, and skill-building to tailor the sessions to meet the specific needs of her clients.
Through her skilled guidance and support, Kiran helps her clients feel affirmed and empowered to find their way forward to their vision of positive well-being and quality of life. Kiran offers in person and virtual counselling to neurodivergent children, youth (5-18) and their parents/caregivers through the Family Neurodiversity Centre.
