Hello, I’m Samantha, a Registered Psychotherapist (RP). I work with adults (18+) who are navigating stress, grief and loss, trauma, and attachment or relationship issues. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I believe in slowing things down and beginning from wherever you are. Grounded in nervous system and somatic awareness, I integrate talk therapy with body-based insight, drawing on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), tailoring each session to your unique needs. A special focus of my practice is offering support and training for service providers navigating burnout and vicarious trauma.

ello and welcome! I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), a Licensed Counselling Therapist (Candidate), and a Certified Canadian Counsellor. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) with Honours from Yorkville University, as well as an MBA from the University of New Brunswick. My academic background also includes a Bachelor of Commerce with a major in Accounting and a minor in Psychology from Saint Mary’s University, where I graduated cum laude.

My therapeutic experience has taken me across provinces and communities, particularly in nonprofit settings where I’ve supported individuals and families navigating life in a new country. I’ve worked with clients facing trauma, anxiety, depression, cultural transitions, relational conflict, immigration stress, intimate partner violence, life changes, burnout, and more. I also support survivors of motor vehicle accidents and individuals living with certain personality disorders.

My Approach

I believe our lived experiences—no matter how painful—hold the potential for meaning and transformation. Therapy with me is a collaborative journey: I create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where we can explore your story, uncover your strengths, and work toward the goals that matter most to you. I take a trauma-informed, client-centered approach that honors your unique pace and needs.

Colleagues and loved ones often describe me as someone who takes the road less travelled—and I bring that spirit of openness and adaptability into my work. I know that charting your own path in life is challenging, but with the right support, it can also be empowering and deeply rewarding.

A Culturally-Informed Lens

As an immigrant from Bangladesh, I’m especially passionate about supporting newcomers and individuals navigating multiple cultural identities. I understand firsthand the challenges of culture shock, transition, and rebuilding your sense of belonging—and I’m here to walk that path with you.

Who I Work With

I offer therapy for youth (12+) and adults of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you’re seeking support for your mental health, navigating a difficult transition, or looking for a space to simply be heard—I’m here to help.

Let’s Connect

If you’re curious about starting therapy or just want to see if we’re a good fit, I invite you to book a free 30-minute consultation. I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey.

I have completed an Honours BSc in Psychology and Exceptionality & Giftedness at the University of Toronto, as well as my Masters Level Diploma in Art Therapy at the Toronto Art Therapy Institute.

I believe providing a safe and non-judgmental space where the client is given space to express who they are and how their values, thoughts, and behaviours align is vital in therapy. I enjoy collaborating with clients during therapy sessions in order to provide support and strategies that allows them to have a personalized experience suited to their needs and goals.

During my time as an Art Therapist Candidate, I have introduced Art Therapy programs at several locations, including the Long-Term Care units at Milton District Hospital and Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital; at Nisa Homes for Women and Children; and at NRIO Etobicoke (formerly Bayshore Healthcare). I have worked with individuals aged 3 to 102 years old who have presented with varying mental health needs.

I am certified in: - Neurorehabilitation in Assisiting Individuals Living with Brain Injuries; - Specialized Autism Training for Mental Health Providers; and - ASIST Suicide Intervention.

I am trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based (Art) Therapy, CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, Play Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, and I am currently training in Gottman Couple’s Therapy.

During my free time I enjoy spending time with loved ones and engaging in creative and mindful tasks. I also enjoy reading, playing video games, and painting, and spending time in nature. I have exhibited my artwork at locations such as The Spinal Cord Injury of Ontario and Nuit Blanche 2017.
