About MindBound

  • At MindBound Therapy, I welcome you into a space where your story is honored with deep compassion and gentle curiosity. Life’s challenges can leave us feeling disconnected, but I truly believe that within each of us lies an innate ability to heal, grow, and reconnect with our authentic selves. Whether you are navigating trauma, seeking clarity, or simply longing for a deeper connection to yourself, I am here to support you on that journey. Together, we will cultivate resilience, foster self-discovery, and help you rediscover the path back home—to a place of wholeness, inner peace, and self-acceptance. You are not alone on this path, and healing is always possible.

    I am proud to serve Kingston and surrounding areas including Gananoque, Napanee and Belleville, both online and in person. I also offer affordable therapy options for students and individuals without extended health benefits.

About Me…

Hi, I am Ekta, and I am so glad you are here. If you are looking to embark on a journey to become the best version of yourself or looking to navigate challenging life transitions, I will be honoured to walk with you. As a counsellor my goal is to provide you with a space where you can focus on your thoughts, feelings and needs. I am here to help you uncover more about yourself and move towards what is meaningful to you. As your therapist, apart from focusing on immediate coping needs I encourage self-reflection and self-exploration as a way of gaining a deeper insight into your thoughts and beliefs to facilitate long term wellbeing.

 

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with a passion for helping individuals experiencing, trauma, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, perfectionism, relationship challenges, PTSD and more. I utilize a relational, strengths-based trauma-informed lens that is neurodiversity and 2SLGBTQ+ affirming. I draw from a variety of research-based techniques including psychoanalytic framework, CBT, ACT, DBT, Narrative, and Integrative mind-body trauma-informed approaches to help you meet your goals. My aim is to create a comforting and warm experience where you feel safe to share your unique story and empowered to engage in journey to healing and living a fulfilling life.
