Salam and hello. A client once shared a quote by Ram Dass that resonated with me: "We're all just walking each other home." Every time I "walk a client home," I feel honoured. I believe that everyone is born with immense amount of strength, but it can be hard to see your strength when you are going through a hard time. My work as a psychologist is built on the foundation of trusting relationship, non-judgmental space, and the positive regard I offer to my clients. I work collaboratively with my clients, supporting them in acknowledging and embracing their strengths and moving gently towards change.
My therapeutic lens is strengths-based and compassionate; I appreciate and attune to individuals’ diversity, culture, and experiences. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples from minority backgrounds but regardless of your skin colour, gender, culture, or religious background, you are welcome in my counselling space.
My passion for helping others has made my counselling journey an exciting one. For me, helping is about meeting my clients where they are and creating a safe space that allows for vulnerability. I look forward to meeting you, hearing your story, and building a genuine relationship wherein you can trust me to walk you home!
