Our lives and all the intersecting parts can be too much to bear at times. Carrying around trauma, negative self-talk and heavy emotions is exhausting and impacts the mind and body. Having someone actively listen without blame, shame or judgment can be the life line needed when your struggling to cope, or just seeking balance and change. I am a Registered Social Worker and have over 18 years of experience working with individuals with complex mental health and addiction issues. Working with clients from diverse backgrounds, I provide professional and confidential counselling to address a number of issues such as anxiety, depression, stress management, life transitions, coping skills, self harming behaviours, communication skills and relationship issues. I believe in treating the whole person and tailor treatment to meet each individual’s personal needs and treatment goals. I work from an anti-oppressive, trauma-informed perspective and am trained in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Solution- Focused Brief Therapy, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Trauma-Informed treatment and Gottman Method of Couples therapy. I would be honored for you to share your story with me. Together, we can explore, unpack and work through new and old issues and challenges, locate yourself in your daily situations, reflect and influence positive change in your life.

If overwhelmed, stressed out, and anxious seem to be your common state of being, or if you are struggling with feelings of guilt, shame, and hopelessness, or if despite all your best efforts you can’t seem to get from where you are to where you want to be, leaving you feeling stuck; then therapy can provide you with a safe space to be seen, heard, and understood. We can uncover the root of why you are stuck and struggling and discover the innate wellness and wisdom that resides within you, which can help create a new way of being in the present, so that your future can look like what you desire.
In individual therapy, together by working with your mind and body, we can address thought, feeling, and behaviour patterns that are keeping you stuck. In couple and family therapy, we can work to reduce conflict cycles, harmful communication patters, and discover ways to be with each other’s differences, in order to support change and enhance connection.
My own personal journey alongside my years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families allows me to provide a safe, non-judgemental, and compassionate space for you to explore, uncover, and discover your self, which can allow you to move from where you are to where you want to be. I offer free 15-minute phone consultations.

Dayirai pronounced (Dye-Rye) is a registered Clinical Social Worker (RCSW) living in Alberta. In addition, she is registered to provide tele-practice in the following provinces: Ontario, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and the Northwest Territories.
Dayirai obtained her Master of Social Work degree from Ryerson University and has provided mental wellness, coaching and consulting services to individuals, families, couples, and communities for over 12 years. Her early beginnings as a grassroots social worker in Ontario exposed her to the dynamics of children and families marginalized in society, whether by language as new immigrants, economics, and generational problems of mental health, addiction, and trauma.
Dayirai’s social work career path has been intentionally varied in keeping with the profession’s presence in multiple spaces where social health and well-being are achieved through client-centeredness, collaboration, and leading change to promote social justice and social development.
“My passion is partnering and working with clients to help them navigate systems and thrive. I provide a compassionate and creative presence in attending to whatever the clients bring to our work. My approach is respectful, authentic, ‘straightforward,’ strengths-based, recovery-oriented, solution-focused, empowering, anti-oppressive, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I’m not afraid to talk about the hard or awkward stuff, and I’m also not afraid to let clients know when they’re standing in their way. My goal is to meet clients where they are and to be helpful in a way that is specific to their circumstances.”

I believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. I have helped hundreds of individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As a relational therapist, I appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. I do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, I see my clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. I see strengths and I see hope, even when it feels like there is none.
I provide a calm, non-judgmental, and supportive space for my clients to explore deeper emotions and gain insight. Further, by using a strength-based, solution-focused approach, I help my clients by collaboratively finding strategies to move forward, which is especially helpful when clients feel stuck with their mental health and relationships.
Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions. You can email me or book a free phone consultation on my website. And if I’m not the right fit for you, I’d be happy to help you find your therapist!

You might be feeling constant over-thinking or anxiety that is hard to quiet; not good enough, even when you try your best; stuck in relationship patterns that leave you hurt or confused; drained from people-pleasing or struggling to set boundaries, uncertain about who you are, and disconnected from yourself, emotions or body. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone and these patterns can shift.
We would shift these patterns through understanding thought processes, create connections with your emotions to express them safely, and get in touch with your body. Emphasis would be on emotional safety, collaboration, and nervous system regulation. We would focus on how your system learnt to survive relational pain and how to build safer ways of relate.
As a clinical supervisor, my focus is on the person of the clinician, as much as their clinical skills because who we are influences how we show up in the therapeutic space. I take on a relational style; so, my hope is to transition from a guide to a companion in the supervisory relationship to facilitate and encourage independence in supervisees.
