In Person Therapists in Guelph, ON
I have a unique background of over 30 years experience working with young children, adolescents and their families. I offer a variety of client centred psychotherapeutic services specializing in individual and family therapy. My relaxed play-based approach helps children explore difficult emotions and situations. I use a strength-based approach helping adolescents building their self confidence, self esteem and coping strategies. When parents feel capable and they are better able to understand their child's individuality the potential risks for mental health concerns decrease for every family member.

I specialize in ADHD & Autism Lvl. 1 and also have experience working with social & general anxiety, trauma, depression, suicidal feelings, substance abuse, video game addiction, stress, and relationship concerns (family, romantic, and friendships). Working with neurodivergent kids, adults, couples, & families is very important to me because I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and struggled a lot without proper support. I get how frustrating navigating the mental health and education systems can be and want to support others in learning to harness their amazing abilities and make lasting positive change.

Do you live with the painful belief that you are not enough, despite your best efforts? Feeling stuck in a pattern of behaviours that do not align with what your values or goals? Do you struggle to show yourself the same kindness you may have for others? If any of these experiences resonates with you, I want you to know that you are not alone and that change is possible. It can be difficult to understand the impact our early experiences have had on our mind, emotions, body, and behaviours and I am here to help you make sense of it.

If you are on this page, you may feel alone or like your voice is unheard by those around you. Maybe you are at a crossroads in your life or looking to make a change. As a queer and trans Indian individual who grew up in Texas, I understand what it can be like to feel invisible and unheard. I believe we all have a voice worth hearing and a story worth telling, and I am here to support you as you work toward your goals, however big or small. Because each of us is unique in our strengths and struggles, I take a person-centred and intersectional approach, drawing from narrative therapy, relational-cultural theory, and mindfulness.

There comes a point in someone’s life where they decide, “enough is enough. Something has to change, and this change starts with me.” My ideal client is someone who is tired of old unhelpful repeated life patterns and who is determined to grow and become a better version of themselves. They are individuals who are ready to put in the work to see the results that will lead them to the life outcomes they long for. The issues I have worked for are addictions, men’s mental health, experiences from a multicultural lens, relational issues, and anxiety & coping skills.

Accepting New Clients. 'Everything, all at once, everywhere' and 'it's like a salad bar,' are two of my favorite phrases about ADH(D) and Autism. The first captures the sometimes chaotic, sometimes invigorating nature of ADH(D). The second, captures the vast diversity of the Autistic experience. Being an ADH(D)er, Autistic person, or both, AuDH(D)er, brings many strengths, and due to living in a world not designed for our brains, many challenges. Perhaps you keep burning out in a boom/bust cycle. Perhaps you blame yourself for struggling to do things the way you "should." Perhaps the demands of work, school or home are overwhelming.

Life isn't always easy. It is full of stressors big and small. Some are predictable. Others are totally unexpected. And some are cumulative in that we don't even know that we are being impacted until that day that we hit the wall and find that we just aren't functioning the way we want. We try everything we know to get through tough times, to change how we are feeling, acting, and thinking, but sometimes we need a little extra help.
