Life can be full of negative experiences that cause us to feel fear, anxiety, deep sadness and loneliness, yearning for love, low self-esteem, and have us question and doubt about our worth and value. You wake up feeling frustrated and trapped, and unable to have a fulfilling and purposeful life.

As a Master’s of Arts Degree in Counselling intern, we will explore your demotivation and stresses at school, dissatisfaction at work, disconnection in your relationships, confusion about life goals and direction, and lack of passion and interests, and I help you restructure your internal compass to allow you to live a happy, peaceful, meaningful, and calm existence.

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach, to help you identify beliefs and perspectives that may be hindering you. We will use problem-solving strategies and outside-the-box thinking to help you overcome your fears, sadness, loneliness, and frustrations. I also use Expressive Arts Therapy to help you process your thoughts and emotions that may be difficult for you to express verbally so that you can make sense of and heal your limiting life experiences in a healthy manner and make decisions and actions towards intentional living.

You’ve been trying to keep it all together — showing up for everyone, staying strong, holding in the emotions, keeping quiet — but deep down, you’re lonely, hurt, and lost.

You feel it at night when everything goes quiet. You feel it in your body, in your chest, in your thoughts that keep looping.

You’re exhausted. And a part of you knows… something needs to change.

This is where healing begins.

I’m Neelu, and I want you to know that you don’t have to do this all by yourself. Whether you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, disconnected, or just plain tired of pretending everything’s fine — I’m here to help you come home to yourself.

As a Canadian Certified Counsellor with over eight years of experience, I support children, teens, adults, couples, and families who are navigating pain, grief, anxiety, trauma, and relationship struggles. I create a calm, steady space where you can take a breath, drop the armour, and let someone else hold the weight with you — for a while.

My approach is steady, respectful, and attuned to how you’re doing moment-by-moment. I use a blend of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic therapy, and also play-based strategies for younger clients. I’m certified in Advanced Trauma Treatment and I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to support deeper trauma healing.

But above all — I offer a space and time where you can be fully seen and heard without judgment. Giving you attention where your pain is calling you. Where your story is held with care. And where real, lasting change can begin.

If you’re reading this and something inside you is saying, “I can’t keep doing this alone” — that’s your courage speaking. That’s your body calling for support.

I’m here. Let’s begin, together.

It can be exhausting to overcome life’s challenges on your own. You might be feeling stuck and unsure of what direction to take next. Perhaps you’re looking for tools to strengthen your relationships. Or, you’re feeling lost, burnt out, and hoping to gain more clarity. You aren’t sure what would help, but you know something has to change. I believe I can help you discover ways to changing your life for the better and finding your meaning and peace again. Together, we can build insight and perspective to support meaningful change in your life. Having worked across multiple sectors (non-profit, education, technology, and law enforcement), I’ve witnessed the gap in mental health support. Having immigrated to Canada as a school-aged child, I also understand the challenges of navigating cultural identity and finding alignment between values. In our work together, we will co-create a space where you feel heard and understood.

Currently working towards my Master of Counselling degree, I utilize evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy to explore your thought patterns, early experiences, and the stories that shape who you are.

I believe everyone deserves a space to pause, reflect, and grow. My aim in our work together is to support you in developing deeper self-understanding, gain clarity, and move toward your goals.

In life, we often face uncomfortable feelings and thoughts, such as excessive worrying, sadness, loneliness, powerlessness, hopelessness, and frustrations that may make it hard for you to live a wholehearted life, full of meaningful relationships and activities that feels like it fulfills your life’s purpose. I have had successful experiences supporting clients with traumatic experiences, families and parents around conflict, anxiety, depression, life and work stressors, executive functioning (i.e. ADHD), and sensory processing sensitivities.

I am dually licensed Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC #24226) and Registered Occupational Therapist, I lean on my strong understanding of your sensory system and executive functionings, and integrate them with somatic-informed psychotherapy and other evidence-based treatments, such as Polyvagal theory, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy/Exposure therapy, to help teenagers, individuals, and parent-child therapy and family therapy to connect and move towards what is important to them in their lives.

I am dedicated to work hard at providing you with a safe, effective, and transformational treatment. I am committed to fostering your resilience in your journey toward healing, growth, and development into the person you can be proud of, when you look back at how far you’ve come.

​​It is so lonely and difficult when you feel anxious, discouraged, or unsure about your place in the world. Perhaps you find yourself caught between what others expect of you and what you truly want for yourself. These struggles can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or questioning your worth. Carrying this all by yourself can feel heavy and isolating.

My approach to counselling is to create a space where you don’t have to carry your struggles alone. My role is to offer encouragement and walk alongside you as you begin to make sense of what feels heavy and what you need to let go of. I will focus on helping you feel safe, encouraged, seen, and fully understood by looking at the dissatisfying patterns in your life, the meanings you’ve given them, and how they may be holding you back. Together, we will acknowledge your strengths, explore new possibilities, and begin to build a sense of purpose in connections that feels authentic and “right” to you.

As a Master of Counselling Psychology intern, I draw from Adlerian Psychotherapy and evidence-based practices. This means I value your unique story, your relationships, and your life goals, not just your struggles. Under close clinical supervision, I bring warmth, openness, and respect into every session.

Over time, you may notice yourself moving with more confidence, forming stronger relationships, and living with greater clarity and meaning. I aim to help you gain new strategies, and more importantly, a deeper sense of belonging and possibility.

We’ll work on understanding your fears and negative stories that dominate your mind on a daily basis and then re-define how we want to live so that we can start to create the life you always desired. When we are feeling crushed by stress, indecision, scared of things not working out, unable to lead a life that we feel is meaningful, get into conflicts (or running away from conflicts) that has ripped relationships apart, and emotional dysregulation, our sessions will help you feel more grounded in your true Self, anchor into what is important to you, experience healthy and connecting relationships, and doing meaningful and purposeful work.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in Adlerian Psychotherapy, with an integration of attachment-based, trauma-healing/sensitive, sensory-based, developmental neuroscience- and evidence-based modalities with a focus on insight, relational dynamics, Inner Child work, nervous system regulation, and practical behavioural changes.

I graduated from my Master of Counselling Psychology program in 2012 from Adler University, a Registered Clinical Counsellor (#7447) and an Approved Clinical Supervisor. I am also an adjunct professor at City University and Adler University.
