I’m Ilham Jilani, a Registered Social Worker providing psychotherapy with a strong commitment to cultural and religious sensitivity. Taking the step to consider therapy is an act of courage, and you don’t have to carry it all alone anymore.
I believe therapy is a collaborative journey. Together, we will explore your challenges, build on your strengths, and develop tools to help you navigate life with more balance, confidence, and self-compassion. I also recognize that the systems around us shape our experiences, and I strive to create a safe, inclusive space where you feel seen, respected, and supported.

Clients often share that they feel safe, respected, and deeply understood in our sessions. I bring empathy and cultural sensitivity, which help clients feel comfortable sharing their stories. My goal is not only to help you manage what is difficult, but also to support you in rediscovering your inner voice and creating a life that feels meaningful.

Outside of sessions, I truly cherish spending time with my friends and family. I find joy in expressing my creativity through painting and exploring new baking recipes in the kitchen. Traveling to new destinations is another passion of mine, as it allows me to immerse myself in different cultures and savour a variety of unique and exciting foods. These activities bring me happiness and personal growth, while also inspiring me in many aspects of life.
