About Heala

Heala is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master’s degree from Yorkville University and York University, with clinical training grounded in evidence‑based, trauma‑informed care, including her work at CMHA. She currently works in private practice, providing psychotherapy to adults navigating a wide range of emotional, relational, and life‑transition challenges. Heala’s clinical work is grounded in years of frontline counselling experience, where she supported individuals navigating complex emotional, relational, and systemic challenges. This foundation allows her to approach therapy with a balanced blend of compassion, attunement, and practical insight. She brings a thoughtful understanding of how personal history, family dynamics, cultural context, and life stressors interact to shape a person’s wellbeing. Her professional experience includes supporting clients living with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, low self‑esteem, stress, anger, and ongoing interpersonal conflict. She also works with individuals managing workplace pressures, identity‑related concerns, and the long‑term impact of difficult or overwhelming experiences. Heala’s therapeutic style is collaborative and client‑centred. She adapts her approach to each person’s needs, drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help shift unhelpful patterns; Solution‑Focused Therapy to highlight strengths and possibilities; Narrative Therapy to explore identity, meaning, and personal stories; and Motivational Interviewing to support readiness and momentum for change. She often blends these modalities to create a flexible, responsive treatment plan that aligns with each client’s goals and lived experience. Languages Spoken: English, Dari, and Farsi
