Our Team
Michelle Srih (she/her)
Founder, Healer & Teacher
I am a cis woman, POC, immigrant and single mother. My family immigrated to Malaysia, Singapore and the UK from my ancestral homeland of India. I was born in London and emigrated from the UK to Canada as a child. My personal belief system is rooted in Buddhist philosophy and the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. I currently reside and work in Vancouver on the unceded traditional territories of the Coast Salish peoples xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
Since 2016, I have been supporting clients as a Holistic Therapist. I primarily work with other Therapists, Bodyworkers, Healers, Creatives, Artists and Entreprenuers. I utilize various approaches including, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Psychedelic Therapy, Yoga, Reiki, Chakra Balancing, ThetaHealing and Therapeutic Shamanism to get to the root cause of what you are experiencing. I am passionate about creating a safe space so you can cultivate a deeper connection to all the parts of yourself, live authentically and reach your goals.
Prior to becoming a Therapist, I was a Human Resources Business Partner in Vancouver’s Video Game, VFX and Animation industry. I worked at Electronic Arts, Pixar, Hootsuite, Wild Brain and Vancouver Film School. It was my own healing journey that brought me into the world of Yoga, Counselling Psychology, Spirituality, Psychedelics and Wellness.
In my free time, I enjoy being active and spending time with my family. I am a mother to a brilliant 9 year old daughter and 12 year old dog! I hike, paddle, read and am currently learning to play the ukulele and handpan. I also teach Yoga at Local Health Integrative Clinic in East Vancouver. One of the things I love most about life is traveling to vibrant places full of culture, warmth and natural beauty.

Ashley Will (she/her)
Counsellor & Yoga Teacher
I feel privileged to live and work in Vancouver, British Columbia, the sacred and unceded lands of the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh, and Musqueam Nations.
I am passionate about walking with other humans as they navigate the full spectrum of their experience. As a trauma informed, holistic counsellor, I support clients with embodiment. I specialize in grief and loss, body image, eating, LGBTQ+ topics and any challenges that come with being a body in the world. My approach is informed by Existentialism, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, Yoga (200HR), Mindfulness/Meditation, and the natural world. I aim for thoughtful and creative connection, drawing on my formal education and the depth of my personal healing journey to facilitate conversations that honour mind, body, and soul.
I believe that in slowing down to be with our innermost experience and the parts of ourselves that need tending to most, we can nurture inner resource and find a safe home within.
I can often be found wandering through the forest, seeking out laughter, playing my guitar, or creating beautiful food to share with those I love.
Prior to my counsellor training, I spent ten years investing in real estate. I learned many lessons through the trials of running my own construction company, most importantly, the value of rest. This was a time of invaluable learning that I am grateful for. I still maintain an interest in design and real estate. Anything to be built in the future will be done with soul.
Integrating these various learnings, I support clients in cultivating the curiosity and courage to create meaningful change and step into their lives with greater agency and authenticity.
Robelle Salvador (she/her)
Shamanic Counsellor &
Depth Hypnosis Practitioner
I am a second generation CIS Filipino woman. I was born and raised in Vancouver, BC by my mother and father who immigrated from the Philippines.
I work within a trauma-informed lens where I provide a safe space for people to heal from Life Transitions, Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Trauma, and Spiritual Crisis. In my practice, I draw from Hypnotherapy, Depth Hypnosis, Regression, Parts Work, Applied Shamanic Processes and Counselling, Energy and Sound Healing. I support clients in fostering their connection to their own inner guidance where they can feel a deep sense of trust in themselves and in their lives. My personal beliefs are influenced by earth-based wisdom drawn from Shamanism and Buddhism.
Since 2013, I have been practicing as a Psychiatric Nurse. I have had the privilege of supporting individuals experiencing mental health concerns within the emergency, inpatient, and consultation contexts. I have been fortunate to combine my experiences as a Psychiatric Nurse along with my training in Applied Shamanism and Depth Hypnosis to support clients with their healing journey. I want you to feel at home within yourself.
In my personal time, I enjoy spending time with my dogs Tako and Samba or with my friends and family. I am passionate about holistic health, spirituality, earth-based healing, and Buddhist philosophy. Furthermore, my hobbies include gardening, meditation, dancing, and being in nature.
