ABOUT MAYA
“Naturally and purposefully, Maya uses the ancient through the lens of the present to facilitate the pivotal transitions and advancements of her clients.”
Born in the Netherlands and raised along the wild, natural coast of British Columbia, Canada, Maya Doytchinova is a daughter of Denmark’s myths and folklore on her mother’s side, and Bulgaria’s mystics and medicine on her father’s. Through her natural environments and life’s inevitable twists and spirals, long periods of introspection and shamanic training were unavoidable. For over a decade, she immersed herself into integrative study within the realms of mythology, symbology, and the fine line where universal and personal truths meet.
A distillation of the crème de la crème of esoteric & therapeutic tools —
With precision, unapologetic truth, and a “to the point” approach, Maya’s work is to bridge your reality with a higher perspective of vision, clarity, and direction. Sessions are unequivocally unique — no one way is followed, but together, we develop and utilize yours — incorporating holistic systems and classical teachings, including Astrology, the Tarot, and Family Constellations.
Currently, you will find Maya close to the shores of the sea, where she conducts her international consultations + sessions online.
