My name is Manpreet and I am a practicum student attending City University, with a student membership with BCACC. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and currently am completing my masters degree in counselling. My approach to counselling is very person-centered with elements of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and solutions focused therapy (SFT). In working with trauma-related concerns I lean towards dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT), trauma focused CBT (TF-CBT), and mindfulness based somatic work. I aim to combine work from various modalities to find what works best for you.

As a therapist, my goal is to create an environment where you feel safe and comfortable sharing your experiences with me. I look forward to working with you!

I hold a Master of Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I have worked as a medical doctor in Amsterdam in various settings including long-term psychiatric care, substance abuse withdrawal management, and the public health sector. I have closely worked with vulnerable population groups, in particular individuals struggling with addiction issues, sex workers, homeless individuals, and the survivors of sexual abuse and intimate partner violence. I am passionate about supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, grief, substance abuse, and traumatic experiences. I believe that great counsellors are genuine, compassionate, possess an ability to hear, and not just listen, to what is being said and the unspoken, and are client empowering.

I am drawn to an eclectic approach and believe that the therapy should be tailored according to clients’ needs. In addition to my private practice, I co-facilitate the support group for Punjabi speaking women at the Moving Forward Family Services. Spending time in nature and listening to soothing music are my favourite leisure activities.

It’s so nice to meet you!

I am a Counselling Art Therapist with a passion for inclusive, holistic, and equity based counselling. My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and validating space for you to explore your experiences through traditional talk therapy with the support of art and the art making process. Sometimes words do not get our important thoughts and feelings quite right, and art can be a great way to explore what lies within. NO ART EXPERIENCE NEEDED!

I enjoy working with children, teens, and young adults. My areas of expertise include trauma-informed care for those with neurodivergence, members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, gender and sexuality counselling, somatic body based counselling, Family therapy, and play therapy. Whatever your unique lived experiences and counselling needs may be, you are welcome in my practice.

When I’m not in the office, I enjoy time with my busy family of five and our houseful of pets. I am an artist at heart with a love for playing the piano, creating for the sake of pleasure and enjoyment in my art room, and writing. You can always find me with a cup of coffee and book whenever there’s a spare moment.

Welcome! At the heart of my practice lies a commitment to holistic, trauma-informed care. I firmly believe that each client’s journey is unique and deserves an integrative approach that honours their individual experiences and needs. Drawing from a holistic perspective, I view healing as encompassing the mind, body, and spirit, recognizing the interconnectedness of these facets in our well-being.

I believe in embracing diverse therapeutic modalities and interventions, allowing for a flexible and personalized approach to treatment.

Hello and welcome, I am so glad you are here. Choosing to navigate a healing journey is hard and complex, but you don’t have to do this on your own. I am here to walk this journey with you and help you find again your inner voice and power.

I have around 8 years of experience working as both a psychiatric nurse and a counsellor. I had the privilege of supporting people from various backgrounds such as: domestic violence, sexual assault, developmental & complex trauma, grief & loss, chronic illnesses and individuals exploring their identities and sexual orientation. Having lived in three different countries, I value greatly cultural influences & your own family constellation. While working together, you will find me using an eclectic approach so I can honour and hold all parts of you with reverence. Some of the modalities I use are Somatic experiencing, IFS, ACT, EFT, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Narrative and Existential therapies.

I believe that the therapeutic space is a safe, non-judgmental space that can help you meet yourself on a deeper level and bring a deeper understanding to your experiences. I look forward to working together.
