Senior Clinical Psychologist
M.Phil, M.A
4 years of experience
Hello! I am a Clinical Psychologist trained in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Client-centred therapy and Trauma-focused therapy. I aim to provide a safe space to the clients to help them express and accept their vulnerabilities. I have experience in working with clients who have struggled with anxiety disorders, mood disorders, post traumatic stress disorder and personality disorders. I believe that the individual is much more than their diagnostic labels and presenting complaints which is why I aim to work on solution building. I believe that by helping the client identify their strengths and building resilience, both their short term and long term goals can be achieved. I aim to use a holistic approach in my therapy to tend to the overall growth of the individual. When not reading or taking therapy sessions, I spend my time drawing mandalas and watching netflix.

FAQs
Why did you choose to become a therapist?
Psychology was not my first career option. I studied commerce for 5 years, somehow managed to thrive but was not happy with my everyday life. I heard about psychology from someone and started reading on the subject. The subject touched my core. It resonated with me. Schools of psychology interested me much more than any balance sheets ever could. I switched my career, immersed myself in Freud's, Erikson's and Jung's theories and the subject accepted me with open arms. Everything followed organically and here I am a licensed clinical psychologist who feels immense gratitude everyday for being able to follow my gut and getting introduced to this field.
