Hi there! I am Muskaan, a counselling psychologist working with adults who feel stuck in patterns that don’t neatly fit into a checkbox, that can be confusing, persistent, and not always easy to name. I work with, but am not limited to, specific diagnoses. We can work on challenges that could be acute and visible, or quieter and more hidden.

Work with me is relational and trauma-informed, and importantly context-sensitive since therapy doesn’t exist in isolation, but emerges from the world you already live in (with your own past experiences, relationships, and unique ways of being). Sessions with me are a mix of slowing things down, making sense of patterns, and gently experimenting with new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating.

There are days of “I never thought of it this way” and others of “I knew this" and these moments slowly compound into intentional change. I’m as human as you are. And somewhere in that shared humanness, we’ll figure things out, sometimes slowly and gently, sometimes quickly and imperfectly but always with a bit of creativity and a whole lot of trust and safety. Here's to little first steps towards meaningful changes, I am excited to work together!
