Facilitator Bio:
Facilitator: Saumya Gairola
There are some stories that are spoken out loud. But the others, they stay inside us; waiting to be heard, yet dreading expression- like the ache of being unseen in a relationship, or the confusion of staying when something in us longs to leave. Over the years, in my work as a psychotherapist, I’ve witnessed many such stories-of people holding tension between loyalty and loss, love and loneliness, silence and survival.
My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and grounded in presence. I often draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic theory, somatic practices, and mindfulness-based listening to help people make contact with parts of themselves they’ve long ignored or dimmed to keep peace. This group is not about fixing what’s broken. It’s about returning to yourself with gentleness. About finding language for what hurts. And about being met there; with care, and without judgment. I hold this space with deep respect for the complexity of marriage, honoring the coexistence of multiple truths and the quiet strength it takes to show up in the midst of uncertainty.
