BOOK A SESSION WITH MAITREYI

Relationships and connection have become the focal point of my work over the past 5 years. I was originally drawn to the field of Psychology following an early lecture on infant attachment theory, and over a decade later I continue my interest in attachment by understanding adult relationships. 

Attachment, along with the interactional, sociocultural, organizational, intrapsychic, and intergenerational processes, are layers I use to understand the multidimensionality that contributes to behaviour—why we behave the way we do, what got us to this place, and how we can get closer to the individuals we want to be given our unique set of experiences. 

Clients tell me they appreciate and clearly see the work I put into each session. Each individual is different, and therefore so is each case. Because of my interest in research, I do incorporate psychoeducation whenever possible. This works best for clients who want to understand their patterns and behaviours within a context—knowing what is happening, and why it’s happening at a particular instance.
