Manupriya Mehra MA Psychology, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor ( RTC-ACCT),Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist ( C.HypTM – Trauma Specialist)

My personal and professional guiding philosophy is simple: Spreading smiles.

If our paths cross, my intention is to facilitate a collaborative space for counseling and healing so that you can confidently take charge of your life. While therapy does not offer guaranteed overnight fixes, I believe that by working together, we can help relieve your distress and bring a genuine sense of joy back into your days. I have been in this field for over two decades—working in hospitals, schools, and managing my own mental wellness clinic in India, before establishing my practice here in Canada. Through it all, my deep reverence for the human spirit has remained unchanged. I am genuinely curious about the hidden layers of our experiences: the subconscious patterns, the stored somatic energy, and what becomes possible when we finally bridge the gap between the mind, body, and soul. I help you understand and together we gently explore the root cause of your current challenges. By navigating these underlying patterns together, you can release stored physical tension and create profound, lasting peace. First and foremost, I am firmly rooted in evidence-based clinical approaches and committed to solution-focused outcomes. My approach is fiercely integrative and universally trauma-informed. I do not have one standard approach because true recovery is rarely one-dimensional. What differentiates my practice is the seamless blending of evidence-based clinical psychology with transcendental, spiritual, and subconscious frameworks. Regardless of what brings you into my office—whether you are navigating relationship issues, a life transition, seeking spiritual growth, or recovering from a severe accident—every single session is held through a trauma-informed lens. I understand that our histories shape our nervous systems. I prioritize your safety and pacing, drawing heavily from Clinical Hypnotherapy and regression techniques to safely access deeper trauma and energetic blockages, alongside solution-focused strategies for conscious processing. What that looks like in practice is that I pay attention to your whole self—your physical tension, your energetic blocks, and your spiritual readiness. I tailor our work to help you heal at every level. I will gently challenge you, ground our work in clinical approaches, and equip you with actionable tools to create meaningful change in your daily life. Who I Support: • Adults (18+) • Elders • Trauma Survivors • Individuals recovering from accidents, chronic pain, and physical or emotional distress ( ICBC , CVAP ) Areas of Focus: • Boundaries & Relationship Support • Cultural & Identity Challenges • Attachment & Family-Rooted Issues • Body-Mind Connection & Self-Awareness • Mood – Stress/Anxiety/Fears/Anger/Depression/Suicidality • Trauma – Loss & Grief, Abuse/Neglect, Violence, and all forms of mental, emotional, and physical trauma • Lifespan Development & Transitions • Self-Esteem/Self-worth • Accident Recovery – ICBC claims and other accidents, addressing accident traumas with chronic pain and physical/emotional distress • Crime victim assistance program ( CVAP)

A Trauma-Informed, Integrative Approach: • Evidence-Based Clinical Frameworks: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gestalt, and Solution-Focused Counseling. • Nervous System & Somatic Care: Polyvagal-Informed Methods, Nervous System Regulation, and Somatic Release. • Subconscious & Spiritual Integration: Clinical Hypnotherapy, Regression Therapy, Transcendental & Spiritual Counseling, Energy Balancing. • Mindfulness & Reprogramming: Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Mindful Meditation, Breathwork, and Grounding Techniques.

Languages Spoken: English, Punjabi, Hindi

A bit about me outside the office:I share my life with my husband—who works in the medical field as a physician and anesthesiologist—and our two sons. When I am not in the clinic, I love to travel to new places and deeply immerse myself in different cultures. I am also passionate about cooking, which serves as a wonderful stress buster for me. I believe food is a vital necessity, but it is also a vessel for healing. I practice what I teach—whether through meditation or making a meal—and I bring that same authentic, full-hearted energy into the therapy room with you. I look forward to connecting with you, and it would be an honor to be a guiding lamp and a pillar of strength on your healing journey.

I am a Somatic Counsellor, artist, mother, and lifelong student of the body. For fifteen years, my work has been guided by a simple truth: we cannot separate our attitudes from how the body is organized.

Many of the people who find their way to me are exhausted—depleted by the pressure to perform, by the inner voice that says they’re not enough, and by a culture that demands they look, feel and act a certain way.

Some are healthcare professionals, leaders, and high achievers who have succeeded by every external measure, yet find they are running on empty. Others are living with unresolved trauma, chronic pain or injuries that traditional approaches have not fully addressed.

As an Integrative Somatic Counsellor, I offer a space where what you are carrying can be met with compassion, curiosity and care. My approach is resource- and body-oriented, drawing from somatic trauma therapy, expressive arts, and conscious movement. Together, we listen to the wisdom of the body, creating space for insight, integration and meaningful change to emerge in its own time.

Healing is relational, shaped by our connection to ourselves, to one another and to the environments that sustain us. Alongside individual sessions, I offer group experiences where community, shared growth and mutual support become part of the healing process.

My hope is to support you in cultivating a deeper, more compassionate relationship with yourself—one that allows you to navigate life’s complexity with greater ease and move through the world in a way that feels aligned with your true heart’s intentions.

I am currently deepening my studies in somatic expressive arts, therapeutic qigong and the integration of Buddhist practice and somatic work. I am also currently advancing my education in the Hakomi method with the Hakomi Education Network.

I live, work, and raise my family on the unceded territories of the Semiahmoo First Nation and am committed to ongoing learning with the Peoples and lands on which I practice.

I believe that taking the time to properly communicate with my patients in order to diagnose and treat them is the most important part of my job. My work also needs to be about building trusted relationships with my patients so that they can feel safe and assured in order to be able to become grounded and release their stress. Pre and post-assessments as well as prescribing proper home care is also essential in achieving a patients desired outcome. I graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 2008 and I have been practicing since 2009. In the course of my career, I have treated a variety of conditions including: whiplash, tension headaches, Morton’s Neuroma, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, sciatica, oedema, lumbago, migraines and more. Some of the techniques I prefer to use in my practice are: Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue, Craniosacral Therapy, Trigger Point Release, Muscle Energy Technique and Passive Stretching. In my private time I love playing soccer, philosophizing, walking in nature, and playing music.
