Are you ready for more than just validation? Are you wrapped up tight in your suffering? I invite you to unfold here. Unfold and explore your pain, your curiousity, your resistance, your strength, your power, your joy, your vulnerability, and your peace. Hi, I’m Sarah - the founder of Abloom Therapy & Wellness based in Ontario. I spent 23+ years navigating the corporate professional world. In that time, I also married, became a mom, and divorced. I also discovered my most treasured core value - human connection - fueled by a desire to preserve and promote the well-being of others, and to nurture my own well-being in the same ways.

Life is filled with emotional experiences, changes, unexpected events, and challenging times—an inherent part of the human experience. However, you don’t have to navigate these alone. Recognizing the need for change in your life is a significant step and understanding that the current situation cannot continue can be a powerful realization. Reaching out for support reveals strength and signifies a pivotal step towards feeling better. Your willingness to honestly assess yourself and your actions, coupled with the decision to seek guidance after attempting to manage on your own, is truly admirable.

I came into this work through personal experiences of challenge and change that allowed me to connect deeply to what people need in challenging times. I was raised in West Africa, and then trained, lived and worked in the US (UCSF and Adler School), India, and Canada (Queens) during my Masters and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. My global upbringing, diverse training and in-depth trauma experience are the lenses that guide my therapeutic approach. I don’t take it lightly that I have the privilege and responsibility of meeting people often at their most vulnerable and open moments of their lives to help them heal.

As a former Psychologist and licensed Psychotherapist in Canada, I am dedicated to supporting individuals, couples, and families through various therapeutic modalities. My practice focuses on Gestalt-oriented therapy, providing a safe and nurturing space for clients to explore their emotions and experiences. With a background rooted in academic excellence, I earned my bachelor's degree in Psychology from the prestigious Middle East Technical University (ODTU), where I graduated with four honor degrees. Subsequently, I pursued my master's degree in Psychological Counseling at Hacettepe University, known for its top-tier education.

I am passionate about helping people navigate their issues and concerns, to find healthier coping strategies and a greater quality of life. My approach is gentle, non-judgemental, supportive and empowering. I work with children, adolescents, and adults in individual, couple, and family therapy sessions. Depending on the needs and goals of each client, I offer talk therapy, art therapy, and writing as ways to communicate and express oneself in the session. I provide a safe space to discuss and work through issues that may be difficult or challenging, and requires someone who can be objective, compassionate and understanding.

No wait list—Navigating life’s transitions as a teen or young adult can unleash a torrent of internal dialogue. Outwardly, you might seem fine, but internally, you may feel close to collapse. You look around and see friends who seem to have it all together, leaving you to wonder, "What's wrong with me? Why is it so hard?" You may even feel that your struggles aren’t significant enough for therapy. Drawing from my personal and professional experience, I specialize in helping you dismantle these barriers. Together, we'll explore every concern, validating your feelings and guiding you towards resilience and authentic self-discovery.

Being human isn't always a walk in the park. Maybe you’re feeling numb and finding it difficult to connect with others. Maybe your mind is swirling with thoughts and you're feeling overwhelmed. Maybe you’re anxious and having a hard time finding solid ground. Or maybe you're dealing with the impact of past traumas. Whatever you’re experiencing, you don't have to walk it alone. I work with clients 18+ from a body-centred approach using a combination of Gestalt therapy and expressive art. My work is trauma-informed and a safe place for those who identify as non-binary and LGBTQIA+

As a Clinical Psychologist, I have been trained and have the experience of working with clients who experience significant distress and/or mental illness. I can complete psychological assessments, including for the purposes of accommodations at school/work, to access other services, or to help people better understand their difficulties. I also provide psychotherapy, and work to help clients rebuild a fulfilling and meaningful life where they can experience joy, peace and satisfaction.

As the innovative Brené Brown once said "when we deny our story, it defines us, but when we own our story, we can write a brave new ending". We all have a story that's filled with difficult times, hardship and unique experiences that have shaped who you are now. What happens next is up to you, as you have more control than you might think. if you're ready to take the next step in changing your life for the better then I invite you to allow me to be a part of that, where I can offer a safe space free of judgement and criticism. Instead I can help guide you toward your goals offering clarity, perspective and empathic understanding.
