Jaya Roy(She/Her/Hers)

Jaya (she/hers), LCSW, is a Liberation and Decolonizing based therapist who uses an integrative approach. Her deep understanding of oppression and white supremacy culture on impacting well-being, and extensive background in psychophysiology (psychobiology, neuroscience, nutrition and more) create a unique, socially conscious and whole person informed experience for deep healing.

Jaya works with a diverse range of clients, with a specialty focus on BIPOC, mixed-race, LQBTQIA2S+, and differently abled folks (neurodivergent, chronically ill or in pain). Most of her clients are individuals who are 16 years or older who are looking to have a compassionate and engaged provider to build better understanding what they are dealing with and ways to encourage transformative healing. Because harm impacts the entire being, Jaya relies on approaches that are holistic and flexible to address healing from a mind, body, and heart perspective such as Decolonized Interpersonal Neurobiology, Somatic Psychotherapy, Buddhist Psychology, and Liberation Psychology.

For relationship therapy, Jaya supports BIPOC, interracial, multicultural, and queer relationships where people feel stuck in a stressful pattern, feelings of being mis-understood, or wanting to deepen understanding of each other’s social identities to explore how equity and Decolonizing frameworks can strengthen the relationship.

Jaya holds an M.A. in Cognitive Psychology, M.S.W. in Social Work and extensive experience and training in Decolonized Interpersonal Neurobiology, Somatic Psychotherapy, and Domestic Violence.
