Gauhar Shariff Therapist

Gauhar Shariff Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP,

My name is Gauhar Shariff, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist with over 13 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges. I understand that every person who comes to therapy brings a unique set of concerns, needs, and goals. My aim is to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can speak openly, feel heard, and work toward meaningful change.

I help clients explore their thoughts and emotions, better understand patterns in their lives, and develop practical strategies for coping and growth. My approach is integrative and grounded in evidence-based care, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and psychoeducation. I also incorporate psychoanalytic interpretation, which can help bring greater awareness to deeper patterns that may be contributing to present-day difficulties.

My goal is to support you in building a more fulfilling and satisfying life. I believe therapy can be a powerful space for reflection, healing, and growth, and I am honored to support clients in that process. If you are ready to take the next step, I welcome you to reach out to schedule a consultation.
