Does this sound like you?
  • You feel guilty whenever you put yourself first.
  • Saying "no" to family feels impossible.
  • You're caught between your partner and your parents.
  • You carry pressure around career, marriage, or having children.
  • You look like you have it together, and you're exhausted underneath.
  • You want support that doesn't require explaining your culture first.

You can love your family deeply and still need support.

I understand it personally, too

The daughter of immigrant parents

I'm a Registered Psychotherapist and the daughter of immigrant parents from India. I grew up in Canada navigating the same competing messages many South Asian people experience:

  • Respect your family, but find your independence.
  • Make your parents proud, but figure out what you want.
  • Be grateful for their sacrifices, but your struggles still matter.

That lived experience informs my work, but it doesn't define yours. There is no single "South Asian experience." My role isn't to tell you what your culture should mean to you. It's to understand what it means to you.

If it feels right, we book a first session. If not, that's completely okay, and I can suggest other options.

Who I work with

Common questions

The initial 15-minute consultation is free. I'll confirm exact session fees on our call so there are no surprises. Payment is made directly to the practice and you'll receive a receipt to submit to your insurer. Direct billing to insurance companies is not offered.

Some extended health benefit plans include coverage for services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist, but coverage varies and not all plans include it. Please check your own policy for "psychotherapy" or "registered psychotherapist." Payment is made directly to the practice and a receipt is provided for you to submit to your insurer. Direct billing is not offered.

Only if you want to. Culturally responsive therapy means I understand the context without assuming it's the issue. Some clients want to explore family and cultural dynamics in depth. Others come for anxiety, work stress or a relationship and never focus on culture at all. You lead.

No. What you share is confidential, with the narrow legal exceptions around safety that I'll explain in our first session. Sessions can also be held online from wherever you feel most private.

Yes. I offer secure video sessions anywhere in Ontario, and in-person sessions at the Vaughan (Woodbridge) office. Many clients mix both depending on the week.

Completely. You don't need a diagnosis, a crisis, or the right words to start. "Something isn't working anymore" is enough to begin a conversation.

You can honour where you came from and still build a life that feels like yours.
