I provide a personalized, supportive approach to help clients navigate their unique challenges. By creating a warm, understanding environment, I guide clients through practical strategies that fit their lives and offer tools for managing stress, improving emotional resilience, and building stronger relationships. With experience across diverse backgrounds, I ensure clients feel respected and valued, whether sessions are in English, Gujarati, or Hindi.
In our work together, clients feel understood and supported as they gain insight and develop effective coping skills. Many find a renewed sense of confidence and connection, feeling more empowered to face challenges and build a fulfilling life.

Momenta Clinic for Psychological Wellness

At our clinics, we embrace a compassionate, evidence-based therapeutic approach tailored to the unique needs of each individual, regardless of background or identity. We are committed to breaking down the barriers and stigma often associated with men seeking mental health treatment, offering a safe space for growth and healing. For us, part of creating a psychologically safe space for men is through providing a confidential and non-judgmental environment where every client feels valued and heard. Our diverse range of therapies, from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to mindfulness practices, is designed to empower our clients, helping them navigate life’s challenges with strength and resilience.
Note: In Ontario, we only recommend therapists who meet our minimum qualification standards, which include holding a Master’s degree and being registered with the CPO, OCSWSSW, CRPO, or CCPA.

My clients receive a genuine, dedicated, and committed therapist. I always make sure I am checking in and seeking feedback to ensure our time together is meaningful and beneficial. I have been told many times that I am approachable, funny, and easy to talk to. If I can make someone laugh when they are dealing with a difficult situation, then why not? I am straight-forward and supportive. I have a decade of experience as a social worker and have the clinical skills to know how to approach different personalities in order to build rapport in a short time frame.
