“My therapy approach is holistic and integrative. I help clients understand how their past has shaped their present, and work towards changing how they think, feel, and behave.”
Licensed Psychologist (CHCPBC# 2259)
I have been seeing clients since 2005.
I treat clients as unique individuals who bring their life stories, hopes, aspirations, struggles, and strengths into the session. I tailor my therapy approach to meet the unique cultural characteristics and needs of each client.
Personally, there is nothing more rewarding for me than helping others heal. It is a privilege to be invited into my client's lives, and I enjoy the journey of venturing into the unknown with them.
I look forward to working with you.

I believe that navigating through life entails having a set of skills and tools. Through our work together, you will acquire new, concrete, and science-informed skills to help you overcome your struggles. What might work for someone else might not necessarily work for you, so I will make every effort to help you build a "toolbox" that works specifically for you.
I am known to have a warm, compassionate, and engaging presence. I am also known to be goal-oriented and transparent in my therapeutic style. By transparent I mean I offer clients my honest feedback and inform them, at every step of the process, what interventions I am thinking of implementing and why. I believe it is this fine balance of warmth, firmness, and authenticity that sets the foundation of a strong working relationship.

I am a bit of a melting pot, having lived in Spain, Taiwan, Costa Rica, Panama, New York City, Toronto, and now Vancouver. Lifelong immersion in very distinctive cultural contexts has given me the gift of multilingualism (English, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish) and a deep appreciation of and sensitivity towards cultural differences. You can be assured that my practice is firmly rooted in culturally-responsive and anti-oppressive practices, whether it is related to your ethnicity, sex/gender, religion, age, and sexual orientation.
My academic and work background has provided me the skills to work effectively with clients who have experienced discrimination and varying forms of oppression either in their work place or in their personal lives.

My therapy approach is holistic and integrative, drawing primarily upon Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioural, Emotion-Focused, Experiential, and Sensorimotor approaches.
This means I help clients understand how their past has shaped their present, and work towards changing how they think, feel, and behave. I help clients maintain these changes. Mindfulness and Self-Compassion work are also integral in my work with clients.

“ My approach in therapy is grounded in warmth, empathy and non-judgment. I help clients challenge unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, and replace them with more positive ones.”

“I believe that understanding is the foundation of meaningful change. Before we can decide where you want to go, it’s important that we first understand where you’ve been and how your experiences have shaped the person you are today. ”

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) candidate in Clinical Psychology. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families in both community mental health and private practice settings.
Throughout my training, I have supported individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, relationship difficulties, chronic stress, and challenges related to identity and cultural expectations.
As a doctoral student in clinical psychology, I remain committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care while continuing to learn and grow as a clinician.

I believe that understanding is the foundation of meaningful change. Before we can decide where you want to go, it's important that we first understand where you've been and how your experiences have shaped the person you are today.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your individual needs. Together, we will work to better understand what’s keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and identify practical ways to help you move forward. While my work is primarily informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), I recognize that every client is unique, and I tailor therapy to fit your goals and experiences.
I also recognize that our identities, cultures, and family experiences influence how we understand ourselves and the challenges we face. My goal is to create a space where you can talk openly, ask difficult questions, and feel understood without judgement.

I was born in India and moved to Canada when I was eight years old. As someone with a South Asian cultural background who has grown up in a multicultural community, I have had the opportunity to learn from people with many different cultures, traditions, and life experiences. Those experiences continue to shape how I see the world and connect with others.
I have always been fascinated by people's stories and the many ways people make sense of both life's joys and its challenges. Outside of my clinical work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, trying new restaurants, travelling, and continuing to learn both professionally and personally. I feel incredibly grateful to do work that allows me to connect with people, learn from their experiences, and support them as they move toward the life they want to build.
