Ilham Jilani – Bri Counselling

I am a compassionate, culturally responsive, and a religiously sensitive social worker who creates a safe, caring, non-judgemental and confidential environment where clients can feel supported and comfortable being themselves. I am deeply committed to helping my clients achieve a better understanding of self through the exploration of feelings and emotions to ultimately cultivate the best version of themselves. I use a personalized approach to tailor to my client’s needs as they navigate through their unique journey. My goal is to empower, strengthen, and equip my clients with the tools they need to lead more resilient lives. I provide counselling to youth, adults, seniors, and families on their path to recovery and healing from trauma. I work with diverse populations experiencing mental health challenges, self-esteem concerns, anxiety, depression, loneliness and overall stress. I utilize a range of therapeutic approaches, grounded in anti-racism and anti-oppression principles. As a therapist at Become Resilient Individuals (BRI) Counselling Services, I create a warm, safe, welcoming and brave space where all voices can be heard, challenges overcome, and lives transformed. The BRI Counselling mission is to ignite hope, build strengths and empower people to become more resilient in all aspects of life.
