The Team
Tanya Mah
Founder of Peaceful Mind Psychology Registered Psychologist and LENS Nuerofeedback Provider
Welcome! I’m Tanya Mah, the owner and founder of Peaceful Mind Psychology. I am an experienced Registered Psychologist on a mission to empower individuals and promote mental well-being. With 25 years of expertise in the field, I have dedicated my life to helping people overcome challenges, find their inner strength, and live more peaceful lives.
My passion for psychology stems from a deep belief in the power of human resilience and the potential for growth and healing. I offer a warm and nonjudgmental space where individuals can feel safe to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Through evidence-based therapies, tailored to each person's unique needs, I guide my clients on a transformative journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
My areas of specialization include anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence and relationships. I firmly believe in the power of a holistic approach, integrating various therapeutic techniques and tools to address not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes of distress. I believe in the importance of ongoing professional development and stay up to date on the latest research and therapeutic modalities. We are all unique and complex and require individual plans to facilitate change. I will work with you as a team to develop coping strategies, build resilience, and foster positive change using therapy techniques that are tailored to your needs.
Outside of my practice, I am an advocate for mental health awareness and de-stigmatization. I have contributed to community through workshops, speaking at conferences, and networking with professionals in my area of expertise from around the world on a consistent basis. I am certified in EMDR, Theraplay, as a Trauma Specialist, Positive Parenting and in Integrative Medicine for Mental Health. I am also a LENS neurofeedback provider. In my spare time I am spending time with my family and friends, walking my dog, doing yoga or hiking.
If you're seeking a compassionate and experienced psychologist who will support you on your journey towards well-being, I'm here to help. Let's work together to uncover your inner strength and create a life filled with purpose and fulfillment.

We all fall in life, but it is how we rise that matters more. As a provisional psychologist I assist my clients in climbing back up from a variety of mental health challenges (such as educational, ADHD, PTSD, trauma, grief, stress, depression and pain). I tend to rely on an Existential, (whole person) approach while using various intervention models in my practice. Using a combination of psychological disciplines, counselling and measurement allows me to better assist clients with their individual issues.
My graduate training in measurement and assessment allows me to investigate specific client concerns ranging from ADHD to psychoeducational challenges using a variety of reliable and valid instruments. When combined with counselling techniques the use of testing instruments can help create a picture of potentially troubling issues that clients are dealing with in their lives. Together with my clients we use the information to learn how to put these issues into perspective and figure out possible ways to work with them. We may use counselling techniques that include but are not limited to EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), cognitive processing and behavioural therapy, prolonged exposure therapy, hypnosis to gain a greater understanding of what each individual needs. I understand human beings are constantly changing from day to day and that it is crucial to assisting my clients in their healing journeys to be open to adapting treatment plans if this is what is needed.
My clinical goal for all clients is to support and assist in their healing journeys as they gradually become stronger and better able to stand independently in their own lives, now and in their futures.
When not researching and verifying new methods and strategies to assist my clients to face battles in life I enjoy spending time with my wife and our pets. Together we enjoy working to create a home where peace, artistry, and nature are cherished.
