Hi there! I am Kritika 👋
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with over 11 years of experience helping individuals navigate the beautiful mess that is life. Whether it’s understanding tangled emotions, healing from past hurts, or building a life that feels more like yours, I’m here to support you—no judgment, just a lot of compassion and maybe a dash of creativity & fun.
My approach? Think of it as a blend of science, creativity, and human connection. I draw from expressive arts therapy, CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy, tailoring everything to you. Basically, we’ll work together to build a toolbox full of strategies, insights, and whole lot of acceptance. I believe in the magic of creativity, mindfulness, and a strong therapeutic relationship to help you uncover your inner strength and face life’s curveballs.
The best part of my work? Hands down, it’s being invited into my clients’ lives and witnessing their incredible transformations. Every step forward—big or small—is a win worth celebrating.
When I’m not in the therapy room, you’ll probably find me creating art, binge-watching my favorite series (recommendations always welcome), or reorganizing my space for the millionth time. I’m also a devoted plant lady, a lover of animals, and always down to admire a cute pet photo or two.
If you’re ready to take that first step—or even just curious about what therapy could look like—let’s connect. Together, we can work toward a life that feels more authentic, fulfilling, and you.
My Journey
My journey as a therapist began way back in high school. Sitting in sessions with my own therapist, I couldn’t help but make mental notes about what I loved (and maybe didn’t love so much) about their approach. That’s when it clicked—I knew this was the path I wanted to follow.
Fast forward a few years, and after spending plenty of time on my own self-discovery (still a work in progress!), I’m now on the other side of the couch. My approach is client-centered, compassionate, and tailored to meet your unique needs.
I believe in creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and heard—a space free of judgment, where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with honesty and openness. Together, we’ll work to identify your goals and build practical strategies to help you navigate life’s twists and turns.
Whether you’re grappling with overwhelming emotions, wanting to strengthen relationships, or simply striving for a deeper sense of well-being, I’m here to walk this journey with you. Let’s take those steps together toward self-discovery, resilience, and a life that feels truly fulfilling.

Education and Training
With a profound commitment to mental health and well-being, I bring a unique blend of education, training, and experience to my practice.
I hold an MSc in Developmental Psychology from the University of Lancaster, UK where I specialized in developmental disorders. My academic journey provided me with a solid foundation in evidence-based practices and a deep understanding of human behavior and psychopathology. Additionally, I completed a certification in Arts Based Therapies (Visual Arts, Music, Movement and Mindfulness) from WCCLF, Pune, India.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO - #15214) and hold certifications in Art Therapies, Solution Focussed Brief Therapy (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT, tapping). My diverse training allows me to tailor treatment plans to meet the unique needs of each individual I work with.
What Sets Me Apart
Hi there! Let me tell you a bit about what makes my approach to therapy unique. I blend traditional psychotherapy with mindfulness and expressive arts to create a therapy experience that feels as human as it is helpful. My goal? To work with the whole you—mind, body, and spirit—in a safe and supportive space where you can unpack your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.
My journey has taken me from the UK to India, and now Toronto, giving me the privilege of connecting with people from all walks of life. Along the way, I’ve trained in psychotherapy and cultivated a deep understanding of human behavior, shaped by the rich diversity of cultures I’ve experienced.
I’ve spent over a decade working with youth, which means I’ve seen it all—big feelings, tricky transitions, and the moments where nothing seems to make sense. My global perspective and hands-on experience help me meet every client with empathy, sensitivity, and a dash of humor when it’s needed most.
What truly sets me apart is how I support you through your journey. I’m here to walk alongside you as you navigate the ups and downs, helping you find clarity, build resilience, and uncover the strength that’s already within you. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating—it’s just us, working together, step by step, to help you feel more connected to yourself and your life.
Let’s get started when you’re ready.
