“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” — Rumi

Komal is a compassionate Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). With over 8 years of experience spanning behaviour therapy and counselling, Komal has worked with children, youth, and adults across diverse communities, driven by a deep commitment to elevating mental well-being at every stage of life. Her journey has enriched her understanding of the unique challenges individuals face and the extraordinary resilience they carry within them.

Komal holds a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from S.N.D.T. University, India, and brings a strong foundation in evidence-based practice to her work. She has completed training in Rational Emotive Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (RE-CBT) and Trauma-Informed Care, and is currently deepening her practice through ongoing training in Trauma-Informed Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Her approach is collaborative and whole-person, honouring the deep connection between mind and body, and integrating frameworks such as ACT, CBT, and trauma-informed care to meet each client where they are. Komal believes that people are inherently whole, and that struggle arises from circumstance, not brokenness. This belief is at the heart of everything she does.
She is fluent in English, Hindi, and Gujarati. Komal bridges language and cultural barriers to foster meaningful therapeutic relationships with clients from diverse backgrounds, particularly those navigating the complexities of South Asian and immigrant identity.

“Transformation looks different for everyone; it can be quiet or profound, brief or lifelong. Whatever your path looks like, I am here to support you through it. If you have been waiting for a space where you feel truly seen, understood, and safe, this is that space.” – Komal Pithava.
