Mandy Rai

I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor who helps clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion, authenticity, and respect. My approach is collaborative and person‑centred, grounded in a trauma‑informed and culturally sensitive framework that honours each person’s innate worth and resilience.

I’m trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) — evidence‑based therapies proven effective for healing from trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and complex PTSD. These approaches allow us to move gently beyond symptoms and into the deeper story of what has happened in your life, creating space for understanding, healing, and lasting neurobiological change.

My own healing journey from trauma, my own healing journey, combined with years working in both counselling and corporate environments, has shaped the way I work. I know first‑hand how stress, loss, and adversity can touch every part of our lives — influencing our emotions, relationships, and sense of self. This lived experience, together with my training, helps me meet clients with deep empathy, a belief in their inherent goodness, and an unwavering commitment to their healing.

In our work together, you’ll find a safe, non‑judgmental space to explore your inner world at your own pace. Whether you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or ready to reconnect with your authentic self, I’ll walk alongside you with care and compassion.

It takes courage to reach out — you don’t have to do it alone. Contact me today to take the first step toward healing and growth.

I offer in-person sessions along with virtual.
