I’m Gia, a Registered Clinical Counsellor committed to creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for individuals navigating chronic health conditions, relationship challenges, developmental trauma, grief, life transitions and work-life imbalance.

My work in occupational rehabilitation and developmental trauma shapes my understanding of how trauma manifests physically and emotionally – influencing emotions, behaviours, and self-perception. I have supported individuals recovering from workplace injuries, chronic pain, stress-related conditions, victims of crime as well as those processing early life experiences that shape resilience and coping patterns.

I integrate CBT, ACT, SFBT, IFS, and Lifespan Integration, tailoring therapy to your unique needs to foster self-awareness, resilience, and meaningful change.

My personal and professional experiences across multiple countries have provided me with an insight into the complexities of cultural identity, cross-cultural differences and intergenerational dynamics. I speak English, Assamese, Bengali, Hindi, and Japanese, which allows me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds.
