Welcome to Malina’s Therapy Room
A safe space to honour the courageous work of self-reflection. Together, we unpack, witness, and rebuild.
My Approach
As an integrative therapist, I draw from a range of theoretical models and clinical techniques to align with your needs in therapy. While I welcome individuals facing a broad spectrum of challenges, I specialise in supporting clients through the complexities of relationships and family dynamics, anxiety, navigating major life transitions, and personal development.
I recognise that this process requires profound reflective effort, including facing intimidating thoughts or a painful history. My role is to provide a secure therapeutic container where we can safely unpack your experiences in the present moment, untangle long-standing patterns, and collaboratively build a stronger foundation for your life moving forward.
“I feel like consistent therapy with someone who's there to hold space for all of you and who's gentle and patient has been one of the most
life-changing things I could've done for myself.”
What Clients are saying..
“I've attempted working with quite a few therapists in the past, but I've always found that I didn't feel fully safe with them, regardless of how long I stuck with them. Working with Malina has truly been a game changer for me, and has truly changed my trust in the practice of counseling.”
“As a South Asian woman, I especially value the cultural awareness she brings. I never have to explain the context of my experiences, which fosters a deep sense of trust and connection.”
FAQ

It’s very normal to be nervous before your first session. We'll start with a free consultation to determine your needs in therapy and whether we’re the right fit for each other.

Our first appointment serves as an intake session. We will spend this time moving through a collaborative framework together to understand the broader context of your life. We will gently explore your background, family history, and mental health history, while opening up a conversation around your goals and the specific areas you want to work on in our sessions moving forward.

It means your therapy is tailored entirely to you. Rather than relying on a single, rigid psychological theory, I intentionally draw from a range of different models and clinical techniques to align precisely with your specific goals, your pacing, and what we are actively working on in the room.
