Meet Amina

Amina Purac supports clients navigating anxiety, overwhelm, stress, depression, anger, reactivity, and recovery from narcissistic abuse. She recognizes how difficult relationships can leave people feeling invalidated, isolated, or unseen. Her client-centred, non-judgmental approach adapts to each person’s needs through practical skills, psychoeducation, and nature-based interventions when helpful. Amina brings cultural awareness shaped by growing up in a Muslim household and working with clients from diverse backgrounds. She works to earn trust, make room for honest storytelling without fear or shame, and help clients leave sessions feeling lighter, supported, and equipped with tools for the future.

My experiences and interests give me a unique understanding of…
  • What it is like to grow up with immigrant parents, often trying to live in two different worlds. 
  • I have also worked through my own mental health journey, grieving, learning to live in a difficult world, and battling my own demons.
My cultural or ancestral background is…
  • Bosnian, and I grew up in a Muslim household.
My clients describe me using words like…
  • Authentic
  • Open and welcoming
  • Easy to talk to
  • Relaxed
  • Knowledgeable
  • Flexible

Booking FAQ

Does Amina offer direct billing with my insurance? Or how does payment work?

First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs, and your card is charged, you will receive a PDF receipt to your email with all of the details you will need to get reimbursed (therapist name, license/designation, license number, address, etc). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage.

We always recommend you check with your insurance provider to confirm what coverage you have.

How do I know if Amina is a good fit?

You are the expert when it comes to knowing who is the right fit. Ensure you’ve watched the therapist video at the top of their profile and see if you get a good feeling from the message and the energy they are putting out. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut! Booking a free consultation is a great first step to asses fit.
