Welcome! I was born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, and I come from two cultures, with my father’s side being Punjabi-Canadian and my mother’s side being German-Canadian.
Coming from a bi-cultural background, I have great respect and appreciation for cultural diversity, and I take a culturally sensitive, strengths-based, and trauma-informed approach to counselling.
That being said, it is important to me to learn what is unique about you and to understand your values, interests, and strengths.
Through my own counselling journey, I understand and appreciate what it feels like to be in the client’s chair, and I prioritize building a therapeutic relationship that is built on trust, safety, collaboration, respect, and care.
I take a curious, empathic, and flexible approach to working with clients and I always tailor my treatment to whatever will work best for your personal needs, goals, and preferences.
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Trinity Western University, as well as a Master’s in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University.
In addition, I am a registered early childhood educator with the B.C. Ministry of Children and Family Development, and I have over ten years of experience supporting toddlers and preschool-age children in childcare settings. I am also the parent of a teen.
I work with individuals aged 20-70 who are dealing with a wide range of issues, including:
- Anxiety and stress
- Depression
- Boundary setting
- Codependency
- Anger
- Relationship difficulties
- Friendship challenges
- Emotional and verbal abuse
- Narcissistic abuse recovery
- Self-esteem and self-worth
- Grief and loss
- Childhood trauma
- Single parenting
- Spiritual/existential concerns
In my work with clients, I draw on interventions from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gestalt, and Mindfulness techniques. My aim is to support you in your goals and empower you on the path toward greater self-awareness, insight, healing, and personal growth.
In my free time, I enjoy going for hikes, playing with my dog, and spending time with my family and friends.
