About me

I am a South Asian Registered Clinical Counsellor supporting clients across BC and Ontario with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship challenges, and family conflict. I offer in-person and virtual counselling in Nanaimo, virtual counselling across BC, and virtual counselling for clients in Ontario.

My work is grounded in authenticity, security, and cultural understanding, with attention to the pressures many South Asian clients carry around family roles, shame, expectations, loyalty, identity, emotional expression, and intergenerational wounds. I draw from family systems, attachment theory, Internal Family Systems, DBT, and somatic approaches to help clients understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns they are ready to change.
