Wonderful to have you here! The word "Aishan" in my practice, Aishan Counselling, translates to "Loving Kindness". You may require a safe and supportive space to process your emotions and thoughts.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and burnt out? Do you find yourself so caught up in the ‘what ifs’ that you struggle to enjoy the present? Perhaps you put on a carefree mask for the outside world, but inside you’re quietly suffering from racing thoughts, feelings of dread, and constant self-doubt. The fear of failure, rejection, or abandonment can cause you to avoid the things that matter most to a meaningful life, like trying new things, having vulnerable conversations, or putting your needs first. I'm here to help you break this cycle of avoidance and create more fulfillment in your life.

I specialized in working with patients who have experience trauma and are struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety, OCD, and addiction. I also specialize working with couples to help them learn to better connect and rebuild their relationships.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming and stressful, thus making it difficult to cope. Therefore, my hope is to help you work through some of your issues (i.e., anxiety, grief, loss) that you are struggling with by providing the skills, insight, and knowledge you need to lead a life you want. I know talking to someone about painful emotions and memories can be difficult so thank you for taking the first step to seeking help.

Are you struggling with your health, pain, or illness? Are you experiencing a new physical or mental health diagnosis? Has your chronic condition worsened? Has the pandemic impacted your health? Are you experiencing Long Covid Symptoms? Have medical treatments been overwhelming? With compassionate support you can navigate chronic physical and mental health challenges better. You want skills and tools to better manage the day-to-day challenges like pain, fatigue, disability, body image, and relationship troubles. You need a safe place to share your story and process overwhelming past experiences.

I work with individuals seeking guidance, emotional support, mental clarity, harmony in mind and body. Whether experiencing relationship conflict, stress, grief, trauma or seeking new perspectives and fresh solutions on your life journey, the essence of my approach is to provide a safe, supportive base where you can explore, understand, and heal issues causing discomfort and imbalance in your life. Physical limitations, social discomfort, and the challenge of living in a fast-paced changing world all contribute to "dis-ease" in the body/mind. This can present itself in the form of anxiety, depression, chronic pain, insomnia, eating disorders, addiction and more.

I help adults who want to be confident and enjoy life but are feeling stuck and are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression or work and career challenges. I also help couples who want to feel closer and more connected but are having challenges in that regard. My areas of care include trauma, anxiety, panic attacks, shame, anger, grief, communication and vocational direction. My clinical focus uses an attachment-based, trauma informed approach in counselling. I am trained in the integration of different models of counselling. I work with individuals, couples and families.

I am a registered clinical psychologist who serves children, adolescents, and their families. For more than 20 years, I have provided psychological assessment, treatment, and consultation services in both public and private mental health settings. I have had the opportunity to work many years with complex populations through McMaster Children's Hospital and an outpatient mental health clinic housed on the University of Guelph campus. I am trained and have experience working with children and their families struggling with a wide range of issues including anxiety disorders, depression, learning difficulties, trauma, adjustment issues, interpersonal and relationship issues.

A client asked me once: Is therapy just TALKING?  In a way it is.  Just talking ... words, words, words. Sometimes words are meaningless and pointless.  They lead to conflicts, misunderstandings, hurt, pain, crises.  What could happen when words are meaningful, relevant, clear, aimed at understanding you and the other?  What difference would it make when the right words are spoken, and they are heard at the right time? Would they make your wants, needs, wishes and dreams more real and attainable?

If you are experiencing anxiety that can be debilitating, the effects of trauma that has not been processed or is "stuck", life can seem like a mountain that is too high to climb. What you are doing now, by seeking help, is a huge first step. There is hope, and I can help you discover and strengthen the skills required to get you where you'd like to be.
