Welcome to my website
Hello, my name is Maya.
With heartfelt welcome thank you for visiting my site Maya.Scot.
Counsellor, Psychotherapist, Artist. These are my callings...
If you would like someone to talk to about struggles in your life...
...If you struggle to love and accept yourself as you are, feel free to get in touch with me, perhaps I can walk the path beside you for a while.
I provide online Zoom Counselling or Face to Face Counselling in Glasgow.
MY APPROACH:
Person-Centred, Integrative Therapy.
'Listening' to your energy and hearing what it has to say.
We will journey how you wish to journey. We will walk the road you wish to walk.
We can take the Holistic approach, working with energies, chakras, balance and going on a journey back in time to understand what has happened.
Or I can be a more Cognitive Behavioural Therapist for you, working with your thoughts and behavioural patterns, your habits and belief system. We can work to understand what has happened and how we can work together to rewire any unhealthy thought patterns that probably occured to initially protect you that may be resulting in painful patterns of behaviour.
As a Psychotherapist I delve a little deeper and this takes time. Usually at least 20 weeks is necessary for us to make some real changes together (6 sessions minimum for brief therapy). To explore, discover, understand, accept, relearn, consolidate new thoughts and routines and see a new beginning in the new approach.
MY ETHOS AND MY OWN PERSONAL JOURNEY:
I endeavour to embrace and unify an awareness and mindfulness of our earth to a connection of an awareness and mindfulness within myself .
Through a long painful journey have I come to finally love myself and love myself as I am.
I am also dyslexic so please don't be put off if you feel different. If you are neurodivergent I hope your journey helps you embrace your unique gifts that you have brought into the world.
MY BLESSED HOME, WHERE I LAY MY HEAD TO REST...
Scotland, which I feel honoured and privileged to live in is one of the most beautiful places, I live in a village and come home to lay my head to rest.
The Highlands of Scotland is a place I go to refresh and blow the cobwebs away and renew, rest and replenish, it is a place of glens (valleys), bens (mountains) and lochs (lakes) the Wild Healing side of Mother Nature!Mauritius is my maternal mother land where I go for my ancestral deep healing.
