About Nicole
I am a Registered Psychotherapist and hold a master’s degree in counselling and psychotherapy with a collaborative degree in sexual diversity studies from the University of Toronto. I have earned two bachelor’s degrees from the University of Western Ontario, including an honours BA in psychology. My research focused on sexual communication and negotiation tactics utilized by BDSM practitioners. I am a fully registered member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and general member of the Ontario Society of Registered Psychotherapists.
​
I am a queer, neurodivergent person and second-generation immigrant with arab ancestry. I often practice through the lens of lived experience alongside my professional experience to better connect with my clients.
​
I have had the honour of working as a sex and BDSM educator for many years before my therapeutic work, teaching workshops to individuals, couples, and groups with a focus on communication, harm-reduction, and pleasure.
What it's like to work with me
I approach each session with compassion, humility, and curiosity. I seek to build an authentic connection with my clients and to co-create a space where no topic feels off-limits and can be approached at your own pace. The journey of healing and self-discovery looks different for everyone, and I advocate that each person deserves individualized care that addresses their unique needs and goals. I look forward to accompanying my clients on that journey so that we can make sense of it together. Read more about which therapeutic approaches I use in session.

I welcome you to reach out to tell me a bit about what you're looking for and to schedule your free consultation. Within the consultation, I would be happy to answer any questions you have about my approach, and we can both get a sense of whether we're a good therapeutic fit!
