If you are a neurodivergent, chronically ill, BIPOC &/or immigrant women, queer or trans person (18-55) across Alberta, Nova Scotia and Ontario, you may be struggling to feel a sense of belonging and acceptance in a world and system that wasn’t built for you and doesn’t capture the unique intersections of your identity and lived experiences.
I believe in your inherent capacity to heal, grow, discover who you are, connect deeply with others, and lead a fulfilling life.
I have over 10 years of experience supporting women, queer & trans folks (18-55), including BIPOC, immigrant, chronically ill and neurodivergent students, professionals and entrepreneurs.
I help my clients to explore: the impacts of immigration on their identity, relationships and life choices; their queer identity and connections to queer community; coping with and learning from a separation, divorce or significant breakup; the challenges of living with ADHD, PCOS &/or other chronic illnesses; their experiences of stress & burnout (including vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and ethical / spiritual pain).
My approach is eclectic and holistic, integrating different perspectives and modalities to fit your unique needs and identities.
Most of my clients see a gradual improvement in 4-6 sessions, with sustained change and growth thereafter.
If you’re committed to self-discovery and healing as part of your ongoing personal growth and professional development, then let's work together to put the pieces of your life, work and relationships back into balance.

Everyone’s needs and wants differ. There are circumstances that hinder the ability to attend in-office sessions, and those that prefer online or telephone sessions. Therefore, video (through a secure platform) and telephone sessions are offered to those seeking counselling online or via the telephone. Online and telephone sessions enable access as well as continuity of therapy, and progress.
I offer online audio or video counselling and psychotherapy, life coaching and relationship coaching, couple counselling sessions via Skype or Zoom for Sri Lankans and overseas individual and couple clients in English. Each online session lasts around 60 minutes (one hour) duration for an individual sessions, and two hours for couple / marriage counselling sessions.
I offer online therapy to adults and adolescents living within the greater Calgary Metropolitan Area, across western Canada, and abroad. If you'd like to learn more about how online therapy works, please feel free to contact me to arrange a free 30-minute consultation session.
Providing the same level of care as with face-to-face counselling, online counselling is carried out via video call. We will be able to read each other’s facial expressions, body language and mannerisms in real time and be able to form a client-therapist relationship just as if we are in a face-to face setting. Online counselling offers greater accessibility and flexibility than face-to-face counselling.
Life can sometimes get messy and sorting it all out can be difficult. When we struggle to cope or face challenges we don’t know how to deal with, it can be helpful to have support. Sometimes, we just need someone to validate what we are going through and help us clarify our next steps. At other times, we may want to build our skills to manage stress; navigate relationships; or face illness, anxiety, or depression. Whatever you are experiencing, I provide strengths-based counselling that centres around exploring personal values and building self-acceptance and self-compassion.
I assist individual adults with various issues such as trauma, difficult relationships, depression, stress, anxiety, anger, substance use, and other issues. All adults are welcome. My approach is collaborative, and I draw on the strengths of a variety of different therapies, such as cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), positive psychotherapy, and many others, to help you achieve your therapy goals. I provide my clients with a safe and non-judgmental space to clarify and address their thoughts and emotions, and feedback I often get is that I am easy to talk to. I have been in practice for 15 years, starting off in California, then in Toronto, and now in Alberta. I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist and a Counselling Therapist in Alberta, a Canadian Certified Counsellor (pan-Canada), a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counsellor (California).
