Bio: I’m a white-passing, Middle-Eastern / SWANA (Southwest Asian, North African), bisexual, cis-gender, neurotypical woman and a first-generation immigrant and settler (who came to Canada as a refugee, during childhood). My passion is to support people who are committed to self-exploration and healing, as part of their ongoing personal growth and professional development. This involves integrating what’s happened in our past with our present moment, finding balance, feeling grounded and content in ourselves, creating connections that nourish us, and leading a fulfilling life that captures every aspect of our identity. I specialize in working with women (ages 18-55), gender-diverse, queer and trans folks (2SLGBTQIA+), particularly first & second generation immigrants, people of colour (BIPOC), students, professionals, entrepreneurs, and people living with ADHD. I support my clients in exploring: – the impacts of immigration on their identity, relationships and life choices – their queer identity and connections to queer community – the challenges of coping with and moving through a separation, divorce or significant breakup (including an exploration of their needs, boundaries, communication style and conflict resolution in relationships) – the challenges of living with ADHD – the challenges of living with PCOS or other chronic illnesses and chronic pain – their experiences of chronic stress or burnout (including vicarious trauma / compassion fatigue / ethical pain / spiritual pain brought on by their work)
