Gunjan is a registered acupuncturist and founder of Echo Acupuncture.
They see their role as a champion of the innate healing drive, echoing its call.
Gunjan first encountered acupuncture while seeking safe and accessible care for their mental health in 2011. They immediately became involved in the movement to make acupuncture more accessible to more people: as a member of the People’s Organization of Community Acupuncture; working at community acupuncture clinics across Toronto; and organizing grassroots healing justice initiatives.
Gunjan graduated with honours from the SSC & Acupuncture Institute in 2015 and was licensed as a registered acupuncturist in 2016.
Gunjan has advanced training in supporting folks through psycho-emotional conditions, and fertility & pregnancy. Gunjan brings their background in politicized somatics and community organizing to providing trauma informed, neurodivergence affirming, anti-racist, body positive, and queer + trans affirming care.
Gunjan primarily practices a methodology called the Balance System, from the lineage of Richard Tan through Sifu Sonia Tan, which is a style of acupuncture that is known for the immediacy of its results and effectiveness over the long term. This method uses points away from the “sick” area to avoid aggravating the condition further, aiming for symptom relief on the treatment table whenever applicable. In 2020, Gunjan was certified as a Level 9 practitioner of the Balance System at Langara College. Gunjan also incorporates cupping, Gua Sha, Tui Na (Chinese meridian massage), and bodywork as appropriate.
Gunjan has a particular interest in supporting folks to have more autonomy and agency in navigating the role of digital technologies in our lives, incorporating the wisdom of Chinese medicine and their background in cybersecurity to meet this particular moment through a project called the Very Offline Club.
Outside of acupuncture, Gunjan practices Wing Chun kung fu, tells jokes, and writes.

Hello there!
My name is Michelle and I am a registered psychotherapist providing virtual psychotherapy services to adults across Ontario
As your therapist, I will:
• Take a warm, compassionate, and strengths-based approach to therapy
• Listen with empathy and non-judgement
• Meet you where you are right now
• Honour and trust your self-determination, personal strengths, and autonomy
• Explore your emotions and experiences with you in a safe way, at your own pace
I can help you:
• Cope with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, trauma, and grief/loss
• Manage and regulate heavy emotions and thoughts (shame, self-criticism, not feeling “good enough”, fear, worries for the future, hopelessness, feeling “stuck”)
• Achieve balance and address perfectionism in arts, athletics, career, or academics
• Understand the impact of trauma, structural violence, and chronic stress on the brain and our behavioural responses
• Navigate the challenges that can come along with being a human in our world, while embracing the full spectrum of human emotion
• Learn strategies and skills that will empower you to make positive changes and move forward in the direction of what is most important to you
More about my therapy approach:
In my practice, I integrate various therapy modalities, including:
• Neuroscience-based, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based approaches
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
• Internal Family Systems
• Compassion-focused Therapy
I strive to provide therapy that is culturally-informed and appreciates the intersectionality that contextualizes a person’s lived experiences. You may have experienced something completely terrifying, or continue to face chronic stress that has left you feeling overwhelmed or unable to cope. This might be related to harmful social structures, such as disparities across race, sex, gender, health, and socioeconomic status.
You may be feeling so anxious that you end up avoiding things that are important to you. You may be feeling stuck and unsure about how to move forward. The weight of all of this can be too much. As your therapist, I will do my best to carry this weight together with you. Part of our work may involve finding the balance between acceptance and change.
I can help you dive deep into the meaningful parts of your life experiences, or I can help you to manage the present day and look towards the future with hope. We can do a bit of both. We will work together to find the right approach for you.
Finding the right fit in therapy is so important. If you think we might be a good fit, we can set up a time to chat together soon. I look forward to meeting you.
More about me:
I love to go on nature and city walks, especially when it involves finding new cozy coffee shops. I am passionate about writing and reading poetry, and occasionally perform spoken word. For me, movement is vital for wellness. I have practiced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai kickboxing, competitive dance, yoga, Animal Flow, and weightlifting.

Hello and welcome, I am Kaushiki, a mental health therapist in Toronto.
What initially brought me to therapy was a personal crisis over a decade ago: therapy presented a path for undoing long-held patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. It invited and emboldened me toward becoming my full self.
As your therapist, I want to invite you to be your own full self.
My work brings this invitation into being in a relational and embodied way. I meet you where you are in each moment and follow you where you go during our time together. Drawing from my professional experience and what comes up from being in session with you, we together discover what is happening unconsciously within you and between us. I encourage you to deepen your exploration and support you as you set in motion your agenda and vision for life.
Apart from talking together, we might explore together through dramatic form and images. Sometimes I might invite you to embody and magnify a small part within yourself to deepen your access to that part. Instead of offering an interpretation, I aim to deepen or contain what is evoked for you. While I don’t use specific somatic modalities, I work in an embodied way and invite you to pay attention to your body’s sensations to help us explore how you are thinking and feeling. I use body-based techniques to teach grounding and centering, and paying attention to my own body informs me of where you might be.
My initial training was as a person-centered integrative therapist at Parivarthan Counselling, Training & Research Centre in India. This is where I began my practice. Earlier, I did my Bachelor’s degree in Anthropology at Amherst College in the United States and proceeded on to complete my Masters of Arts in the Social Sciences at the University of Chicago in the United States, graduating with distinction. The lens of these disciplines comes actively into my practice as I contemplate the social rootedness of our psyches. Currently I am a student at the Toronto Institute for Relational Psychotherapy (TIRP), which allows me to deepen my therapeutic lens.
I became a therapist because I began to see that structural inequality is held so deeply in our psyches and in our bodies. I expressly recognize that we live within structural contexts (gender, race, caste, capitalism to name a few) that come to trouble us from the inside. And I recognize that mental and emotional wellbeing are not disconnected from the impact of these contexts.
Over my many years of practice, I have done work with people struggling with a range of difficulties including anxiety, interpersonal troubles, depression, trauma, anger, shame, substance use, and I have particular experience with grief, suicide, self-harm and the dislocations of migration. Working collaboratively with psychiatrists, I have helped my clients make sense of psychiatric diagnoses that they may have received. Whether you seek help with a specific problem or are looking for a deeper exploration, I am skilled at working with my client towards the intentions you set. I look forward to witnessing your journey toward fullness.
Please feel free to book my free 15 minute virtual video or phone consultation to see if we are a good fit to work together.

I am a licensed Naturopathic Doctor (ND) and graduate from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM). Prior to CCNM, I completed my undergraduate studies in Political Science and Journalism. I subsequently worked as a writer, editor and youth facilitator.
I came into Naturopathic Medicine after a friend recommended I see an ND for a health issue at the time. I appreciated that the doctor took the time to get a full picture of what was happening with my health and then involved me in my care. Over the years I have developed a special interest in hormonal health, mental health and autoimmune conditions. I have successfully worked with people with a variety of conditions, including chronic eczema, hypothyroidism, hormonal imbalances, migraines, insomnia, anxiety, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic pain and menopausal concerns.
Combining up-to-date clinical research with traditional and natural therapies, naturopathic medicine focuses on supporting the body’s innate capacity to heal. You can see a Naturopathic Doctor (ND) for support with any condition – acute or chronic. It is important to make connections between bodily, mental and spiritual health and the larger socio-economic and cultural context. Recognizing that past and present experiences shape a person’s needs, I strive to provide a non-judgmental space. For more information on naturopathic medicine, conditions treated, and therapies offered see the brochure below or my website www.taniatabarnd.com.
