“I breathe this work. The therapeutic connection is my oxygen. There is no greater joy then walking alongside humans that successfully reach their goals and surpass their own limits”
Tharshiga Elankeeran
FOUNDER & DIRECTOR
Welcome to MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy Services, where Tharshiga, our founder & Director, is dedicated to empowering you on your journey to making life-affirming decisions that align with your deepest values. Our mission is to guide you back home to your true essence, where all the answers you seek reside within you.
With over a decade of experience in diverse settings such as Addiction services, Community Health Centre, High school, University, and Hospital, Tharshiga brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her practice. She firmly believes that every client is an expert in their own unique experiences and endeavors to honor her role in assisting you on your path.
Beyond therapy, Tharshiga’s commitment to making a positive impact extends to co-founding a Charity organization that supports survivors of child sexual abuse. Her passion for teaching led her to share her insights at George Brown College in the SSW program, and now she continues to inspire and guide the next generation of therapists by supervising Qualifying Registered Psychotherapists.
At MindfulWe, we know that a wholehearted life is within your reach, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Embrace your true essence and take charge of your well-being with our holistic psychotherapy services.
