Our Team


The word “Nala” embodies strength & the origin of the word holds many significant meanings such as: Successful, Water in the desert, Prosperity, Gift, Beloved & Abundance.

As the founder, my passion for healing & supporting our communities flourished as a thought and became what is known today as Nala Counseling & Wellness. My journey was to create a healing space that is welcoming, supportive, inclusive and accepting of all people. Our vision is to provide integrative, whole-person, soul-centered healing for every person.  

I am so honoured to work alongside a very special, genuine & compassionate community of practitioners with a commitment to guide you to your place of healing. We have come together to provide a space of security, compassion, sincerity & cultural sensitivity. You will have a space respecting & appreciating who you are authentically!
