I am a highly experienced mental health expert, therapist, and consultant specializing in resilience, addiction, trauma, and workplace well-being. With over 17 years of experience in mental health, forensic, and addiction services, I bring deep expertise to my roles as a clinician and consultant.

My approach is grounded in the belief that meaningful change is possible with empathetic support and practical tools. I focus on people rather than diagnoses, working collaboratively to address challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, substance use, and chronic illness. Guided by the philosophy that “the problem is the problem”, I help clients separate themselves from their struggles and uncover their strengths to achieve personal growth.

I use an integrative and holistic approach, blending evidence-based modalities such as Narrative Therapy, CBT, ACT, trauma-informed care, biofeedback, and mindfulness. This flexible framework allows me to tailor each session to your unique needs, fostering resilience, empowerment, and self-advocacy.

In addition to working with individuals, couples, and teens, I design mental health programs, provide crisis support, and deliver training to enhance workplace well-being. I am passionate about equipping clients with the skills and confidence to advocate for their needs within mental health and healthcare systems.

What I Offer:

A Safe Space: Emotionally and physically welcoming, where you can explore your innermost thoughts and feelings. Compassionate Support: Empathy, understanding, and unconditional positive regard in every session. Collaborative Care: Respect for your autonomy and agency, ensuring your voice is central to the process. Empowerment Tools: Practical strategies to build resilience and navigate life’s challenges. Growth and Connection: A focus on fostering personal strengths and meaningful relationships. I believe that therapy is not just about solving problems—it’s about creating the conditions for a more fulfilling and empowered life. If you’re ready to take the next step toward meaningful change, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can create a path forward that honours your journey and helps you thrive.

Hello, I’m Meral, a bilingual therapist (English and Turkish) with over 14 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. Having worked with diverse communities, particularly immigrant and indigenous individuals, I understand how culture, identity, and life transitions shape us. I work with individuals, couples and families. My approach blends trauma-informed care with a focus on attachment and personal growth. I believe that healing comes not just from understanding trauma but from understanding ourselves and the relationships we build—with a therapist, loved ones, or our own sense of self. Together, we will create a space where you are truly seen and heard, not just as a client but as a unique person with your own strengths and story. My commitment to learning and growth is my commitment to you: helping you turn challenges into opportunities for lasting change.

I work with clients using a gentle, holistic and collaborative approach where we tune into your inner world and address the root cause of your self sabotaging inner critic. Together we can discover what is really causing your anxiety so you can move forward with peace, calm and confidence. I offer a culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, and compassionate approach that helps clients safely explore their inner struggles and heal on a deeper level. Clients often describe my style as warm, welcoming, and calm, and I draw from my diverse training to tailor sessions to their unique context and goals. I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. My training includes Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, person-centred therapy, expressive arts, and somatic approaches.
