Nestled in the heart of Vancouver, there exists a haven for those seeking solace and rejuvenation from the weights of emotional, mental, or physical burdens. It is here that Shama, a dedicated and compassionate transformational body psychotherapist and breath therapist, extends her hands in warm invitation to all who wish to step into a new way of being. With over 15 years of experience, Shama’s practice is more than just therapy; it is a gateway to transformation, targeting the deep-seated origins of depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and stress-related conditions.
Shama’s quest for self-discovery and healing began in 2002, leading her from the ancient lands of India to various corners of Europe and beyond. In her extensive travels, she immersed herself in the profound depths of meditation, breath work, and Reichian therapy methods, culminating in her mastery at the Diamond Breath School in Italy. Shama has not only learned from the masters but now stands among them, sharing her wisdom across the globe.
Her insatiable thirst for knowledge and understanding of human psychology compelled her to explore and train in numerous body-mind healing modalities. This rich tapestry of eastern and western therapy methods has enabled Shama to develop a distinctive approach to healing — an approach that is as unique as the individuals she assists.
A Custom-Made Healing Experience
Understanding that each person’s nervous system is as unique as their fingerprint, Shama adopts a personalized approach to therapy. She believes that to truly cater to individual needs, one must look beyond generic treatments. Her sessions are carefully crafted, combining breath work, Somatic Experiencing® techniques, bioenergetics, bodynamics, and meditation for an integrative healing experience. This bespoke approach ensures that every session is aligned with the client’s specific requirements, paving the way for profound transformation.
Unburdening the Self
In our fast-paced world, the mind’s incessant activity has disconnected many from the essence of true relaxation and the meditative states that ensue. Shama’s goal is to liberate individuals from the confines of a busy life and mind, guiding them back to a place of relaxation, silence, and connection with their true nature — love. Through her techniques, Shama helps her clients release old tensions, opening space for self-regulation, self-trust, and happiness.
Shama’s diverse training background — from Hypnotherapy in India to Somatic Experiencing training for trauma healing in Canada — equips her with the tools and techniques to address a wide array of issues. Her work in Transomatic Breath Work and the Revival Intensive Ultimate Stress Management program is a testament to her commitment to offering pathways to resilience and wellbeing.
A Global Mission
Shama’s passion isn’t limited to her private practice in Vancouver. She is a fervent advocate for healing and transformation across the globe.
