Meet the Team

Dayna Starke and Eva

Hello, and welcome!
We are so glad you are here.

Raven Key Psychology Inc. was created with the intention of sitting with the person beneath the story. Everyone has a story, and we believe that there is an immense power in how that story is told.  We intend to bring a space where your story has a gentle place to land, with two hearts in the room to help hold it. 

Animals have a unique way of instinctively knowing the person beneath their story.  Although they cannot help you write it, they can make it a little easier to tell it. Establishing an authentic connection with an animal does not always need words in order to be met with non-judgement. 

At Raven Key Psychology, you are welcome to be present in your story.  No matter what part of your story brings you here, we look forward to sitting with you while you tell it. 

Dayna Starke: Registered Psychologist

Dayna Starke

(she/her)

Helping people discover their strengths has always been at the heart of Dayna's work.  She began her career supporting neurodiverse children and adolescents, while partnering closely with the adults who cared for them.  Those early experiences shaped her collaborative, compassionate approach to therapy by recognizing that growth happens not only as individuals, but also among the relationships and communities that support them.​

​

As a former collegiate volleyball athlete and current Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach, she understands firsthand the connection between mental resilience, physical well-being, and personal growth.  Whether navigating life's challenges on the mats or in the therapy room, she believes that the courage to grow is built one step at a time. 

​

Dayna's goal is simple: to help you unlock the strongest, most resilient, and most authentic parts of yourself.  Therapy isn't about becoming someone new, it's about writing the next chapter of who you've always been, with a trusted guide by your side.
