We all have times in our lives that leave us in pain, confused, feeling lost or afraid. Whether it’s a feeling of being alone or a simple desire to have someone to talk to—your feelings and experiences are valid and true. And you are not alone.

I aim to provide you with a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space where you can be yourself and where we can work together to address your goals; from building on your strengths to learning new skills and more.

Having graduated with a master’s degree in social work from the University of Windsor, I am a registered social worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) and the Ontario Association of Social Workers (OASW). I am qualified to work with any resident of Ontario province.

My experiences have allowed me the honour to work with a diverse field of clients including individuals, youth, adults, and groups from all walks of life. I have worked extensively with women in areas of self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma, communication, building coping skills, and interpersonal relationships.

I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I work from a trauma-informed, intersectional lens that puts you, the client, at the center.

My identity as a second-generation immigrant woman of Pakistani descent makes me keenly aware of the value and importance that race, gender, faith, ability, self, and personal experience play in our lives. I welcome you to bring your authentic self to our sessions and hope we can work together.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, bike riding, taking long walks and spending time with friends and family.

IMPORTANT (1): I only provide services to the residents of Ontario, Canada

Important (2): If you are under the age of 16 years old, signed consent from your parent or legal guardian will be needed before any counselling can start.

Real growth happens with being uncomfortable, with pushing yourself, setting boundaries and investing in your healing each day.” - S.H

I practice from a compassionate client-centered lens. I strongly believe my clients are the authors of their lives, and I will be there to guide them every step of the way. We have all gone through trials, fallen off course, and felt lost at one point or another. If you are reading this, that means you have taken the first step in changing your life. I will be there to help you navigate through these obstacles. I will walk alongside you and help you adapt better coping mechanisms and work with you to formulate a plan on the road to healing.

As a Registered Social Worker with a Bachelor of Social Work degree from Ryerson University, I have obtained a Masters in social work from Wilfrid Laurier University. Specializing in teens, young adults, grief counseling, and life coaching, I also provide counseling for individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, postpartum depression, self-limiting beliefs, feeling stuck, and relationship issues. The theoretical approaches I implement are based on my client’s unique needs and include CBT, strength-based, and solution-focused therapy. I practice from a culturally sensitive lens and offer faith-based therapy, utilizing an anti-oppression framework.

With over 10 years of professional experience, I have worked with a diverse range of clients both in person and virtually. I have experienced overcoming grief, intergenerational trauma, and postpartum anxiety. I was able to work through these issues and learn new coping mechanisms, change my negative habits, and rewire my brain to become the best version of myself. We are all broken in some way or another. However, we do not have to stay broken. Due to my personal and professional experience, I have been able to help countless individuals like yourself transform, heal, and grow. I am committed to helping you do the same.
