MSW, RSW
Registered Social Worker
As a Pakistani Muslim Canadian Therapist I specialize in trauma-informed therapy for individuals who have been hurt, let down or disappointed by their loved ones. Whether you have a difficult relationship with your parents, recovering from betrayal trauma after infidelity, or struggling with people-pleasing behaviors, I’m dedicated to helping you find your way toward healing and empowerment. I also support individuals going through separation and divorce, offering a compassionate space to work through the emotional complexities of these transitions.
In my work, I’ve seen how the impact of these experiences can manifest in various ways—feelings of sadness, confusion, or a sense of being lost. These emotions can be overwhelming, and it’s crucial to have a supportive environment where you can explore them without judgment. Trust is at the core of the therapeutic relationship, and I prioritize creating a space where you feel safe to express and process your emotions.
With extensive experience in these areas, I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques to help you build resilience and self-confidence.
For those dealing with the unique challenges of living with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and hormone imbalances, I provide specialized support to help manage the emotional and psychological aspects of these conditions.
If you’re ready to take the first step toward a more fulfilling and balanced life, I invite you to reach out for a FREE 15-minute consultation. Together, we can break cycles of generational trauma and help you achieve the emotional wellness and clarity you deserve.
