“May you have places and spaces where you don’t have to perform or pretend. May your
authentic self find or create soft places to land” – Dr. Thema Bryant.
Welcome! I understand how difficult it may be to exist in spaces where you feel you can’t
bring your authentic self. Whether it is because it hasn’t felt safe for you or because you
are exploring your identity, navigating life transitions, or managing mental health

concerns might impact your ability to do so. I strive to create a therapy space that
invites, embraces, and uplifts all parts of you-mind, body, heart, & spirit to show up
authentically. You can also expect me to show up as my authentic self, gentle, warm,
collaborative, and compassionate.
I practice with a culturally responsive & socially just lens, which means I consider how
cultural identity, values/beliefs, worldview, and positioning influence your overall well-
being and interact within the therapy space. I hold various intersectional identities, such
as being Tamil and a daughter of immigrants. These intersections and my lived
experience impact my passion for supporting BIPOC communities to heal from
culturally diverse challenges. My hope for you is to be seen, heard, & supported in
accessing culturally responsive therapy services. I embrace cultural humility and a
relational stance so therapy can be a safe(r) space for you to process life’s difficulties in a
way that prioritizes trauma-informed, equitable, anti-oppressive and decolonial values. I
offer free 15-minute consultation calls to determine if we would be a good fit to work
together, and I would be honoured to get to know and support you if it feels right.
A little bit about me: I enjoy practicing yoga spending time outside and with my loved
ones. I prefer sweets over savoury options, except I am a huge popcorn lover :)

If this is your first full-length couples counselling session and you’d like to meet via video, this is the option to choose.
