Hey, I'm Irit (She/her)

Feeling lost, overwhelmed, or struggling with life's complexities? Are you finding it challenging to manage the various stressors in your life? Perhaps you are struggling with relationship issues, mental health, self-esteem, or just having a hard time finding a work-life balance. That is why I am here; to listen, understand, and help you with the varying life struggles you may be facing.

My approach is holistic as I will be focusing on all the various components that encompass your identity such as cognitive, physical, spiritual, and social. Since every individual is unique, I will be tailoring your treatment plan to your unique needs and goals and draw from a range of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Emotional Focused Therapy. As a first-generation immigrant, I understand the challenges of adapting and the complexities of navigating new cultural environments.

Through person-centered care, I aim to increase your self-awareness, making you feel heard, validated, safe, and understood. This, in turn, equips you with the skills, insight, and confidence needed to face life's stressors head-on. Together, we can build deeper connections with yourself, your community, and those around you.

Remember, change is the only constant in life. By seeking therapy, you've taken the first step toward a brighter future. Let's embark on this journey of self-discovery and personal growth together.

Benefits of Working with Me

  1. I use an integrative approach to counselling by incorporating varying therapeutic interventions while tailoring the treatment and therapy to fit your goals and needs.

  2. As someone who experienced immigration and the challenges of being separated from loved ones at a young age and difficulties surrounding acculturation, I have an understanding of the unique problems associated with such life circumstances.

  3. I aim to create a comfortable and safe environment that is judgement free through unconditional positive regard, empathy, and genuineness.

  4. I will work collaboratively with you to develop effective treatment plans while ensuring you feel validated, heard, and understood.

  5. I am an intuitive, compassionate and open-minded individual who will continuously strive to help you reach your full potential and become the best version of yourself.
