Myria Rei Solas

At the heart of Myria Rei Solas’s practice is a quiet conviction: that every person already carries within them the capacity to heal. A Registered Psychotherapist based in Peterborough, Ontario, Myria has spent more than two decades working alongside children, youth, and adults in community settings, bringing that same foundational belief into individual sessions, groups, and parenting support. She holds a Master’s in Counselling Psychology and Art Therapy, and her work is also rooted in the healing arts — she continues to offer Reiki and other alternative modalities on request.

Myria works with children as young as seven through to adults, supporting people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, learning difficulties, and the particular pressures of parenting. Her sessions may involve conversation, art-making, poetry, sand tray, or play — not as novelties, but as genuine ways of knowing. She fits the approach to the person rather than the other way around, because she understands that each client arrives with a distinct inner world and a pace that belongs entirely to them.

Beyond individual work, Myria facilitates women’s art therapy groups, workshops, and occasional retreats, and offers supervision for art therapy students and therapists. She is a member of the CRPO, CATA, and the Canadian Play Therapy Association. Sessions are available online.
