Hi, I’m Arya, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. With an Honours Bachelor’s Degree in Bioethics and Law from the University of Toronto, I bring a thoughtful and ethical lens to my practice. My goal is to help you bridge the gaps between your past, present, and future, guiding you toward physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

I have experience working with children in the educational system as an elementary school teacher in a private school setting, which has equipped me with unique insights into supporting youth and their families. This background allows me to connect with clients aged 7 and up, helping them navigate challenges like anxiety, stress, and behavioural concerns.

In my practice, I focus on creating a culturally sensitive, individually tailored approach for each client. I work in areas including anxiety, youth behaviour, complex trauma, infidelity, intimacy concerns, and divorce. Divorce can be a challenging transition, often affecting every aspect of your life, from emotional stability to relationships with children and co-parents. I help you navigate these changes with tools that foster healing, communication, and resilience, enabling you to build a new path forward.

By addressing struggles with a strength-based perspective, I empower you to harness your inner resilience and develop practical, lifelong tools. I provide SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) goals, helping you move forward at a manageable pace. Therapy with me often involves self-reflection, empathy, and compassion, creating a safe space for healing.

I believe well all carry broken pieces of a mirror that make life’s picture unclear. Through therapy, we work together to connect these pieces, forming a clear, full-length reflection of your life. Whether you're facing complex trauma, relationship challenges, divorce, or navigating life’s transitions, I’m here to support you in finding clarity, balance, and peace.

Let’s build those bridges and take the next step on your journey toward wellness.
