About Salwa

If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or affected by past or ongoing relational stress, therapy can be a place to slow things down and feel supported. I offer trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy for children, teens, adults, and families, with a strong focus on safety, trust, and emotional attunement.

My work integrates EMDR, somatic and experiential strategies, and evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, and ACT. I’m especially supportive of clients who feel emotionally flooded or shut down, stuck in cycles of anxiety or self-criticism, or navigating the effects of relational or attachment-based trauma. Sessions are collaborative and paced with care, balancing insight with practical tools for regulation and change.

I have extensive experience supporting children and youth with big emotions, school stress, and family challenges, and I work closely with parents and caregivers to strengthen communication and emotional safety at home. Clients often describe me as warm, steady, and thoughtful in my approach. My goal is to help you feel understood while building resilience and meaningful, lasting change.

I offer virtual therapy and in-person sessions in Vaughan/Woodbridge, supporting clients across Ontario.
