Hi, I’m Ummi (short for Ummehani). I know how heavy life can feel sometimes—when you’re stuck between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming, when relationships feel distant, or when the weight of expectations, emotions, or past experiences becomes too much to carry alone.
With over 10 years of experience in behaviour therapy and now as a registered psychotherapist, I offer a space that’s warm, grounded, and centered around you. I bring not just professional training, but my own lived experience navigating identity, change, and healing.
My approach is gentle and collaborative. We go at your pace, and together we explore what it means for you to feel safe, whole, and connected again. I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches—like CBT, DBT, EFT, and psychodynamic therapy—but above all, I center compassion, culture, and your unique story.
Therapy with me is available virtually across Ontario. I also offer sessions in English, Hindi, and Urdu.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. Just showing up is enough—and I’m here to walk alongside you.
