Hello!  My name is Hiral, and I’m glad you're here.  Let me take this opportunity to share a bit about myself.

I am a compassionate and highly-skilled psychotherapist dedicated to helping you overcome emotional challenges, achieve optimal mental well-being, and meet your specific goals, even if you've been struggling with these for a while. With almost a decade of experience working with a wide variety people and mental health issues, I have cultivated a deep understanding of the complexities of the human mind, and the intricate dynamics that shape our behaviours, emotions, and relationships.

Through my own life experience, including my immigration process, I have  learned the many challenges of major life transitions, as well as their complex impact.  As such, I have committed to learning the necessary aspects for deep coping, adjustment, and growth.  Combined with advanced education in human psychology, and extensive training in numerous therapeutic modalities, I love helping individuals meet even complex personal and mental health goals.  As a part of this, we'll use very effective and evidence-based therapies such as EMDR, Somatic Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Gestalt Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based interventions - and we'll apply these in a way that's unique and nuanced to your particular needs and style.

Having worked with a diverse population of adolescents and adults, I am committed to establishing a warm, non-judgmental, and empathetic therapeutic environment where you can feel safe to explore your deepest concerns.  Through a paced, trusting, and collaborative relationship, we'll uncover the true causes of your challenges, while establishing new and enduring ways to feel more empowered in your life.

Finally, I am passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest advancements in the mental health field.  Therefore, I continually engage in ongoing professional development and training.  By integrating the most current research information and therapeutic techniques into your process,  you'll receive the most effective treatment available, tailored to your needs, timing, and goals.
