About Me
I am a Doctor of Clinical Psychology (PsyD), a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), and the Founder and Director of 1Life - Centre for Counselling and Research with more than 0 years of experience in the field. Over the course of my career, I have supported individuals and families through provincially and federally funded programs, including the Crime Victims Assistance Program (CVAP), Stopping the Violence (STV), Employee Assistance Programs, and Family Preservation & Reunification Programs.
I help people of all ages work through trauma, grief, anxiety, relationships, and life challenges. Using approaches like Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Clinical Hypnosis, and solution-focused methods, I provide personalized care and support, including for high-risk situations.
As a first-generation immigrant, I provide accessible, compassionate counselling—especially for immigrants and women facing trauma—while connecting with diverse communities in Punjabi, Hindi, and Urdu.
With a flexible, client-centered approach, I offer virtual counselling sessions designed to empower individuals, foster resilience, and enhance overall well-being. My goal is to walk alongside clients as they work toward healing, growth, and lasting positive change.
