She/Her | Teens and Adults | English, Tamil and French**
DAYTIME AND EVENING APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE
You may have grown up learning how to move between different cultures, expectations, and versions of yourself. Perhaps you often keep the peace, feel responsible for other people’s emotions, or struggle to make choices that honour both your relationships and your own needs.
Vaaraki supports teens and adults navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, cultural and family expectations, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and major life transitions. She particularly understands the experiences of first-generation and immigrant clients who may feel caught between what is expected of them and who they are becoming.
Her approach is warm, grounded, collaborative, and non-judgmental. She recognizes that opening up can feel unfamiliar or vulnerable, and carefully follows each client’s pace so that exploring difficult experiences never feels forced or rushed. Together, you may work toward understanding your emotional patterns, expressing your needs more confidently, and creating relationships that leave room for your authentic self.
Vaaraki draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, incorporating practical tools for emotional regulation, coping, communication, and meaningful change. Her previous experience in acute and hospital-based care also allows her to bring steadiness and clinical understanding when supporting clients through periods of distress or transition.
As a Tamil Sri Lankan immigrant, Vaaraki brings both professional knowledge and lived cultural understanding to her work. She offers therapy in English, Tamil, and French, allowing clients to express parts of their experiences without always having to translate them.
Vaaraki offers virtual therapy across Ontario and in-person appointments in Vaughan. You are welcome to book a complimentary consultation to ask questions and explore whether working together feels like the right fit.
