Cultivating Your Unique Path to Wellness

Your therapeutic journey is a garden of possibilities, and I am here to guide you in nurturing and cultivating the seeds of a new beginning. With my background as an immigrant and a South Asian-Canadian woman, I bring a deep understanding of the complexities involved in navigating multiple cultural identities. This perspective enriches our work together and supports a truly inclusive therapeutic experience.
