She/Her
Hello! I am Jaya and am pleased you are here. With a lifelong commitment to wellness, I bring a vast wealth of education and lived experience to the Rosemary Heights Counselling team. I have navigated life from being a Textile Designer to a Corporate Trainer, Meditation Teacher, and Counsellor. I hold a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology, as well as a Masters Degree in Industrial Design and I believe life is a lifelong continuous learning, each experience, and person offering opportunities for growth. I am equipped with resilience to help people come out of trauma, grief, and depression.
My strength lies in establishing strong therapeutic connections with empathy, compassion, and understanding, providing clients with a safe and supportive environment along with acceptance and encouragement.
I always tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs. As a meditation teacher and stress relief instructor for the Art of Living, I view everyone as being on a spiritual journey. Having lived across the world spanning India, the Middle East and Canada, I’m very culturally competent to deal with clients from diverse backgrounds. I guide every client on a journey of self-discovery with empathy, helping them explore various aspects of life and heal past wounds.
When not working, I spend time singing, exploring nature, cooking, or painting. I’m fluent in English, Hindi, Urdu, Telugu, and Punjabi, with some understanding of Arabic and French.

If you’d like to find out more, I invite you to schedule the first free consultation with me. This is an information gathering call to make sure I am the right fit for you. During this first initial 15-minute phone consultation, I will tell you a bit more about my work and approach to therapy, and you’ll get to ask your therapy-related questions. If you decide to start full therapy with me, I will provide you with all the details and next steps.
