Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist, Individual and Family Therapist
As a social worker, psychotherapist and a child of South Asian immigrants, Farah’s practice is informed by a broad range of clinical, academic and cultural experiences.

Farah believes that we can all be resourceful and resilient in the face of adversity. With warmth, empathy and cultural humility, she supports people on their healing journeys.
For 17+ years, Farah has been providing support to families and children undergoing life-changing treatment at The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto.
