Maya Dousti
Registered Psychotherapist
Life often sends things our way we feel unprepared for, which can make us feel stuck, scared, or lost. Psychotherapy can help to develop the skills to navigate through what we cannot expect. Recognizing the cultural differences in acknowledging mental health, it is important for me to provide a space for all individuals to explore their challenges and overcome their obstacles. To me, therapy is about self-awareness and healing. It takes a lot of courage to seek help, and I admire your first step into this unknown. By seeking support, you have already taken the first vital step towards self-growth.
I work with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, emotional dysregulation, self-esteem, life transitions, racial/cultural issues, new parenthood, identity, family and interpersonal relationships. I work eclectically, borrowing from several modalities to meet my client's needs. I have experience using CBT, DBT, Trauma-Focused Therapy, Attachment Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Therapy. I always work from a relational, culturally sensitive, interpersonal and Trauma-informed lens.
In therapy, I focus on providing a safe space and building a strong relationship with you based in openness and collaboration. Therapy is not always easy, and it requires hard work. I want to support you to develop skills in order to thrive. I believe that lasting, positive change comes from self-awareness and the use of concrete tools to work on your goals.
