Highlighting some of the providers that work at this clinic

Angie Agrawal HolsteinRegistered Clinical Counselor

BackgroundIn private practice, I have noticed that South Asian clients of all ages were self-referring with the goal of working with a therapist of their own cultural background. They were seeking to feel truly understood within their unique backgrounds and experiences. In this healing work with clients from my own South Asian heritage, I’ve been able to explore all that has been stored within me, learned from both my professional life and personal lived experience. Issues such as the growing up first generation Canadian, survival, resilience, enmeshment, trauma, chronic shame, “I'm not good enough” beliefs, stressed parents, delayed adulting, academic pressure, patriarchy, cultural discourse, anxiety, depression, racism, intergenerational traumaSpecialty / ServicesTrauma, EMDR, South Asian Mental Health, Teen Mental Health, Relationship Issues, Acculturation Stress, First Generation Issues, Maternal Mental Health, Mental Health Issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, sleep issues.

Deena AzizRegistered Psychotherapist

BackgroundMy experience includes working with clients who experience anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, adult ADD, PTSD, grief and loss, anger management and who want to improve their communication and social skills training. I have provided therapy services to clients from all over South Asia as well as Indo-Caribbean and Indo-African. A commonality is our heritage leading to similar values, beliefs, and attitudes. In addition, maintaining those values, beliefs, and attitudes while navigating the wider Canadian culture can cause cognitive dissonance or warring thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.Specialty / ServicesPresenting Issues: anxiety, depression, bipolar, adult ADD, PTSD, assertiveness/communication/social skills training, grief and loss, anger/chronic pain management.
