He/ Him

Do you feel heard? Have you ever struggled with being seen? Are you validated as your authentic self? If you have ever struggled with ANY of these experiences, you have come to the right place. We are all in relationships, whether we know it or not. My job is to help you in your relationship with yourself and others.

My goal as your therapist is to help you explore and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others. As a Black male, second-generation immigrant, I’m aware of how culture, heritage, and family shape our stories. I have over a decade of experience as a former law enforcement officer, and I understand the value of a mental health journey focused on self-care and resilience while balancing professional and personal demands.

I have always been curious about relationships and how they shape us. In my experience, love, joy, grief, loss, trauma, anger, conflict, and other emotions and conditions all happen in the context of relationships.

I am a registered psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I mainly draw on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Therapy, and Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy, using a strength-based approach to help individuals, couples, and families.

Do you find yourself replaying conversations, expecting the worst, or getting stuck in the same thoughts over and over again?Anxiety can make it difficult to switch off, even when you know your thoughts aren’t helping. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps you identify unhelpful thinking patterns, challenge them, and develop practical tools to respond differently.Learn how CBT can help you break free from cycles of worry and build healthier ways of coping.📞 Book a free consultation to learn more: https://www.shantipsychotherapy.ca/#CBT #AnxietySupport #Overthinking #MentalHealthSupport #Psychotherapy

Not every relationship that starts with connection ends in safety.Toxic relationships often develop slowly — through patterns that create confusion, self-doubt, and emotional exhaustion. Over time, you may find yourself questioning your feelings, minimizing your needs, or walking on eggshells.Recognizing these patterns is the first step.�Healing takes time, support, and self-compassion.
You deserve relationships that feel safe, respectful, and steady.If you’re navigating the impact of a toxic relationship, therapy can help you rebuild your sense of self and move forward with clarity.#toxicrelationships #mentalhealthawareness #therapy #healingjourney #selfworth boundaries emotionalwellbeing

“Narcissism” is a word we hear often — but it’s more than confidence or a big ego.
Narcissistic patterns can include manipulation, lack of accountability, and a strong need for admiration, often leaving others feeling confused, invalidated, or emotionally drained.Understanding these dynamics can help you recognize what’s happening and begin to set healthier boundaries.
You are allowed to protect your well-being.If you’re struggling in a relationship impacted by these patterns, therapy can provide support, clarity, and tools to move forward.Learn more on our website, in a blog post by Registered Psychotherapist Rashmi Kumar!#narcissism #mentalhealth #therapy #boundaries selfawareness healing emotionalhealth psychotherapy
