Ms Sakina Saraiya

Counselling Psychologist
3 years of experience
In my therapy sessions, I aim to make a meaningful difference in helping individuals achieve a sense of well-being and empowerment, while addressing various concerns. Hi, I'm Sakina, and my life philosophy is perfectly encapsulated by Carl Rogers: "The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination." Thus, I view therapy as a powerful tool for healing, growth, self-awareness, and self-compassion. In sessions with clients, I focus on mindfulness, compassion, connecting with your body, and deep healing. I have over 3100 hours of experience working with individuals on diverse concerns, including anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, relationships (premarital and marital), emotional regulation, self-development, and clinical issues such as eating disorders, substance abuse, and personality disorders. As a trauma-informed, queer affirmative therapist with an eclectic approach, I view therapy as a safe and collaborative space where you can express, explore, and learn more about yourself and the world around you. I believe a huge part of how successful therapy is depends on the therapeutic relationship between a client and therapist. To foster the same, I create a deep connection and trust throughout the sessions, focusing on narratives and the experience of the client within the therapy space and outside. Every interaction is unique, and I strive to adapt my approach to fit the uniqueness of every individual client.  In addition to my work with adults, I have training in working with children with special needs. I'm passionate about research, teaching, and volunteering, and I have completed several research papers on topics such as childhood trauma, self-compassion, and generational differences in mental health. In my therapy sessions, I aim to make a meaningful difference, no matter how small.

Ms Athira

Counselling Psychologist
2 years of experience
Therapy with me focuses on helping people grow, heal, and build resilience in a supportive, nonjudgmental space.  Hello! I'm Athira, an individual and couples therapist. My approach is integrative and centered on the unique needs of my clients. I use evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Trauma-Informed Care, and the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy.  In my journey as a therapist, I've discovered that embracing our humanity is the key to building genuine connections with clients. By being open about my challenges and limitations, I show clients that it's okay to be authentic and imperfect. This shared human experience forms the foundation of our relationship, allowing us to connect on a deeper level to cultivate meaningful change. In my experience of working with couples, my focus is on strengthening their relationships, improving communication, and navigating conflicts. I aim to help partners understand each other's perspectives, rebuild trust, and create meaningful connections that lead to lasting happiness. For individual clients, I provide support on their personal growth journeys. Whether they're dealing with anxiety, trauma, or life transitions, I help them explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build the resilience they need to thrive. With my clients, I focus on creating a personalized plan that supports their goals and fosters a collaborative and supportive therapeutic experience.
