Priya has been working in collaboration with clients for nearly 20 years in Alberta. Early in her career, she was introduced to somatic therapy and trauma therapy, which sparked her curiosity about how the body holds psychological burdens and patterns. Her undergraduate degree in neuropsychology shaped her belief that everything psychological is, at its core, biological. As a Certified Hakomi Practitioner, she learned various frameworks for understanding developmental patterns and the “stuckness” clients often experience. Her work is informed by Self-Regulation Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Attachment Theory, and Hakomi. Her curiosity later led her to explore psychedelic medicine and its potential to facilitate the softening and opening of the unconscious mind, which allows for easier access to these stuck patterns. She has trained with Numinus, Therapsil, Atma Journey, Numa Breathwork, and the Zendo Project, earning multiple certifications in areas such as Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy, Psilocybin-Assisted Psychotherapy, MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy, Breathwork, and Sitting and Integration Training.
