Dr. Karanvir Singh
Dr. Karanvir Singh is a Registered Clinical Counsellor who offers a human, collaborative approach grounded in presence, authenticity, and genuine care. He believes therapy is not about having all the answers, but about creating a space where clients feel heard, understood, and free to explore without judgment. Drawing from his own experiences with pressure, expectations, and feeling stuck, Karanvir brings empathy and relatability to his work. Clients can expect a supportive yet gently challenging environment that balances insight with practical growth. He has a special interest in helping clients understand patterns, build self-awareness, and develop confidence and clarity. Karanvir invites you to take the first step with willingness and begin a meaningful process of change.
- What it feels like to appear capable and composed on the outside while navigating anxiety, stress, or emotional overwhelm internally. Many of the individuals I work with are high functioning in their roles, yet find themselves stuck in patterns that are difficult to shift without structured support.
- Navigating cultural expectations, life transitions, and the pressure of balancing personal, professional, and relational roles. These experiences often shape how we relate to ourselves and others, particularly in moments of stress or uncertainty.
- Neurodiversity, including ADHD, autism, and related differences in emotional regulation, communication, and processing.
- Integrating evidence-based approaches that are practical, structured, and aligned with each individual’s lived experience.
- Creating an inclusive, respectful, and affirming space for individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds and identities, including LGBTQ+ clients.
- Grounding my work in each person’s unique context while supporting meaningful and sustainable change.
- Indian, with lived and educational experience across multiple countries, including the United Kingdom, Singapore, Australia, and now Canada.
- Shaped by diverse cultural perspectives, migration experiences, and navigating identity across different environments.
- Informed by an awareness of how cultural values, family dynamics, and societal expectations influence mental health, relationships, and personal decision-making.
- Reflected in a culturally responsive and respectful approach that honours each individual’s unique background and lived experience.

Therapeutic Frameworks & Approach
- Clearer about what is actually happening beneath your thoughts, emotions, and reactions, not just in theory but in real situations you are navigating. Our work will help you slow things down, make sense of patterns, and respond differently when it matters most.
- A shift from feeling overwhelmed or stuck to feeling more steady and in control of how you think, feel, and engage with others. Sessions are active and focused, so you leave with something concrete to work with, whether that is a way to manage anxiety in the moment, regulate emotional intensity, or approach a situation differently.
- That the space remains grounded, respectful, and non judgmental, where you can explore your experiences without pressure, while still being supported to move forward in a meaningful way.

Service Offerings & Rates
- What has been bringing you to therapy at this point in your life and what feels most important for you to work on right now.
- Your current challenges, whether that is anxiety, stress, ADHD, trauma, or relationship concerns, and how these are showing up in your day to day experience.
- How I typically approach therapy, what our work together could look like, and how sessions are structured so you have a clear sense of what to expect.
- Any questions about the process, my approach, or anything else that would help you decide if this feels like the right fit.
- Clarifying anything you need to feel comfortable to make an informed decision about moving forward.
- Not let you stay stuck in the same loop session after session. When something isn’t working, we will pause, look at it closely, and figure out what needs to shift, not just talk about it.
- Be engaged and direct in a way that still feels respectful. If I notice a pattern, whether it is overthinking, shutting down, reacting quickly, or getting pulled into the same relationship dynamic, I will name it and work through it with you in real time.
- Focus on situations that are actually happening in your life, not just abstract ideas. That might mean slowing down a recent interaction, understanding what happened internally for you, and finding a different way to respond next time. The goal is that you begin to notice these shifts outside of sessions, when it matters.
- Hold space for you without judgment. You do not need to have the right words or a clear starting point. We will figure it out together, at a pace that feels manageable, while still moving forward in a way that feels real.

Booking FAQ
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.
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.
