Hi! I am Maitreyi (She/Her), a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) based in British Columbia. My personal journey with anxiety and depression has influenced my professional trajectory, and therefore, I am committed to providing you with a safe and nurturing environment where you can embark on your journey towards healing. Central to my approach is my profound belief in your inherent resilience ensuring that your lived experience, wisdom and strengths guide your therapeutic journey. It is my earnest desire to support you in a manner that aligns perfectly with your unique needs. I firmly advocate for personalized therapy, tailored specifically to you, ensuring that you are at the helm of your healing journey.
I am a bicultural, first generation settler and have navigated the challenging waters of chronic pain. I have experienced the repercussions of transgenerational colonial trauma. I work from an anti-oppressive and de-colonizing framework because I recognize that trauma and many of the other struggles faced by us today cannot be seen in isolation from our colonial past, systemic racism, oppression and cultural marginalization. I hope to work with you towards reclaiming your culture and identity and embrace your true authentic self away from the dominant cultural discourse. I hope to be by your side as you dissect your past, your life experiences and rediscover your true self.
