Shanti Psychotherapy is an online and in person private therapy practice, specializing in South Asian Mental Health, care is inclusive to all other communities and aims to make therapy accessible, private, culturally sound, de-stigmatizing, compassionate and comfortable for those struggling with mental health issues, wellness or any of life’s challenges.

Founded by Angie Agrawal Holstein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist (she/her/hers):

"In private practice, I have noticed that South Asian clients of all ages were self-referring with the goal of working with a therapist of their own cultural background. They were seeking to feel truly understood within their unique backgrounds and experiences.


In this healing work with clients from my own South Asian heritage, I’ve been able to explore all that has been stored within me, learned from both my professional life and personal lived experience. Issues such as the growing up first generation Canadian, survival, resilience, enmeshment, trauma, chronic shame, “I'm not good enough” beliefs, stressed parents, delayed adulting, academic pressure, patriarchy, cultural discourse, anxiety, depression, racism, intergenerational trauma and the legacy burdens of colonialism."
