Working with Mahsan has been life changing. The way she is able to link your current struggles to your past and able to help you work through your issues is second to none. I've worked with a few counsellors but struggled to find someone who was culturally appropriate and understood me. Now that I have found Mahsan, I am so happy I no longer have to worry about those things!

I went to see Mahsan when I was facing a critical decision in my life. Within a very short span of weeks Mahsan not only gave me the tools to better face my problems but also delved into issues with me that I was unconsciously suppressing. Regardless of the reason you chose to go, Mahsan is a qualified professional that is passionate to help you. Could not recommend her more. Thank you for all your help Mahsan!

Puts in 110% of her effort into her work. Super devoted& vibrant& helpful. Although it has been almost two years since our last meeting, I can still hear her voice guiding me through difficult life challenges. Mahsan is an amazing counselor, and she definitely created such a great positive impact in my life.

Every week, I count the days to get to my session with Mahsan. She is a truly skilled professional who listens and picks up the most miniscule of details. She provides a safe platform for you to learn about yourself and to think critically. As a young Canadian with a Middle Eastern background, I often found it hard to connect to many therapists, even if language was never an issue. There was always a certain cultural gap and lack of connection with others. However, Mahsan is able to fully understand me and my nuances effortlessly. With her years of experience and her compassionate approach, I recommend

I see Mahsan once a week. Her contribution to my recovery from, and adjustment to, a serious break up and the anxiety and grief that came with it has been incredible. She helped me understand how better to help people in my life who have suffered trauma and how to not blame myself for things out of my control, and she has taught me techniques to manage my difficulties. It would have taken me years on my own to make the discoveries she has helped guide me to, and her abilities, knowledge and personality combine to make her a person I trust. I look forward to my sessions every week.
