I have a Master of Arts in Psychology and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC).

With over five years of research experience and extensive clinical training, I bring a thoughtful, culturally attuned, and trauma-informed approach to my counselling work. My background in studying human attention and boredom, combined with hands-on clinical practice, give me a unique lens into how stress, disconnection, and unmet needs impact emotional well-being.

I specialize in working with clients navigating the complexities of intergenerational trauma, cultural conflict, and identity struggles, particularly among immigrant families and individuals balancing traditional values with modern life. I am deeply attuned to the emotional toll that cultural expectations, family roles, and silent generational burdens can have on mental health.

My clinical experience includes roles as a Research Assistant at the Mood Disorders Lab at UBC, and as a Mental Health Support Worker in an assisted living facility supporting clients with acquired brain injuries related to addiction. I have worked in private practice, led non-profit counselling programs, and partnered with interdisciplinary teams to provide holistic care.

Fluent in English, Punjabi, and Hindi, I support newcomers, students, teens, seniors, and couples, helping them process anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I integrate CBT, DBT, EMDR, and the Gottman Method into my work to help clients heal, connect, and build healthier relationships—both with themselves and others.

Outside the therapy room, I enjoy cooking, reading, and traveling, and regularly facilitate mental health awareness workshops to reduce stigma in culturally diverse communities.
