My name is Mina and I am a Canadian Certified Councillor dedicated to assisting individuals, couples and families through life’s unique challenges. My practice provides a warm and safe place for people to be seen, heard and supported when life feels overwhelming. Drawing upon a depth of life experience and a mixed cultural upbringing (Pakistani and Bosnian), I am well qualified to assist you through life’s challenging moments and transitions. After teaching high school students for over 20 years and seeing so many of them struggle with their mental health, I was inspired to go back to school to become a therapist. For me the mind-body connection is foundational in therapy. Trauma and emotional overwhelm often live in the nervous system, so before moving into cognitive or narrative processing, I focus on regulation, resourcing and safety. Integrating my extensive knowledge of yoga and somatic work into my sessions provides unique tools for my clients to build awareness. When clients feel safe, we can slow down and create space, in that space we can see new perspectives to respond rather than react to life’s challenges.
