Sandeep Kaur Marwaha

Occupational Therapist, Psychotherapist

Born and raised in Tkaronto (now known as Toronto) as a ​daughter of Punjabi Sikh immigrants and currently raising a multi-​ethnic family, my life crosses multiple intersections of identity. I ​bring this awareness, along with my lived experiences with ​depression, anxiety, and chronic illness, into my work. I employ ​culturally-sensitive, anti-oppressive, and trauma-aware ​approaches to create an atmosphere of safety and ​collaboration. I support folks from immigrant and global majority backgrounds ​navigate relationships, enhance their emotional health, and ​connect to their internal wisdom to thrive in today's hectic world. I sprinkle different approaches into my practice, including Sensorimotor ​Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ​Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. One thing I ​haven't learned is to fix my face, so sessions might also include a dash of humour, ​an F-bomb or two, and definitely my expressive face! For me, therapy is about building relationship and partnership. I view my role as ​that of a teammate: we both bring our experiences and knowledge into the space ​and work together towards a common goal. Sometimes I will teach, sometimes I ​will learn, sometimes I will push you, and through it all, I will always be your ​cheerleader. When not working, you might catch me napping, in a yoga or ​pilates class, reading, daydreaming about a beach in Barbados, ​drinking coffee, trying to frantically corral my two school-age ​kids, or sitting on the couch snacking on popcorn with my ​favourite person in the world, my husband.
