I am dedicated to supporting clients and bring with me both professional expertise and life experiences. I offer psychotherapy and counselling services to people from different cultures and walks of life. I am able to build a strong therapeutic relationship with clients due to my empathetic and nonjudgmental approach and a strong listening ear.

I have extensive training and years of experience in working in the field of Autism and Behavioural sciences. I am equipped to help parents / caregivers of neurodivergent individuals improve their quality of life. I welcome and offer customized services for parents/caregiver, children and their siblings. During sessions, I meet with parents/caregivers and provide therapy services, skill building, education and service coordination.

My experience being a therapist in the corporate sector has given me the knowledge and tools to better support women in managing work related challenges (ie. work-life balance, work related stress, toxic workplace dynamics, work related burnout, work related anxiety, etc). I help women to navigate and manage perfectionism.
