Counsellor/Therapist, RP(Qualifying)
Much of the mental load of running a home falls onto women. Many times we are also conditioned to put others needs before our own, leading to stress and burnout. Together, we can work on setting boundaries and redistributing the mental load to relieve stress and overcome burnout.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
It's not easy being a woman or a gender-diverse person who lives and works in systems, institutions and communities that were historically created by men and for men. You may be feeling ignored, silenced or excluded. Your needs, strengths and contributions may be overlooked. And, you may be struggling to have equitable access to resources and opportunities for care and growth.
Through these experiences, many women and gender-diverse folks often feel shocked, outraged, confused, unwanted, misunderstood, alone, small and just not-good-enough!
Over time, it's easy to internalize others' mistreatment, which can negatively affect your confidence, self-worth, health and wellbeing, connections to others, and the opportunities that you allow yourself to pursue.
Let's work together to:
Disentangle from unrealistic, oppressive and exclusionary societal expectations, norms and standards.
Clarify your unique identities, strengths, needs, boundaries and goals.
Practice self-acceptance, self-compassion and self-advocacy.
Create nourishing and fulfilling connections with supportive and inclusive communities.

Life Coach, Board Certified Coach from the Centre of Credentialing Education , PhD in Educational Psychology from the Department of Education and Counselling Psychology, McGill University
As a Vietnamese-Canadian life coach with roots in the immigrant refugee experience, I specialize in addressing women's issues at the intersection of class, race, gender roles and intergenerational trauma. My approach is deeply informed by these complexities, offering targeted guidance to help women navigate and transcend the multifaceted challenges thrown at them by a capitalist patriarchal society. My goal is to foster resilience and empower you to reclaim your agency, guiding you toward finding your voice and establishing a resilient path in a world that frequently marginalizes your experiences.
