Description

I am a South Asian, first-generation immigrant, third culture kid, and father of three. I support BIPOC clients navigating marital conflicts, parenting struggles, family issues, life transitions (e.g., marriage, fatherhood, immigration), emotion regulation, and self-awareness. With native comprehension of Urdu and a deep understanding of Middle Eastern cultures, I relate well to diverse backgrounds. Outside therapy, I facilitate men’s support groups and workshops, addressing mental health gaps in BIPOC communities. My approach is empathetic, nonjudgmental, and honest.

Summary

At LifeCycle Counselling we recognize how difficult it is to take the first step towards therapy, speak about your difficulties and explore uncomfortable emotions. We are a diverse group of therapists, many of whom have had our own mental health challenges and obstacles. We use client-centered approaches because we understand how important it is to meet you where you are. We respect differences, opinions, values, and attitudes. Many of our team members have extensive experience in dealing with a wide variety of issues and are familiar with various therapeutic modalities.
