Description

Raised in Southern Alkebulan (colonially known as Africa), Dayirai (Dye-Rye) calls Zimbabwe (colonially known as Rhodesia) her first home. 

As an intersectional human, Dayirai has a personal awareness of how imposed identity interacts with gender, class, immigration status, and additional identities to influence how one moves within society. She is passionate and deeply invested in decolonizing and destigmatizing mental health care.

Dayirai offers virtual therapy children, teens, adults, couples, and families throughout Fort McMurray and the greater Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo.
