What is my approach, and areas & age groups I work with?
I use an integrative approach (being trauma and neuro-queer aware) in therapy and counselling, where I source in different tools and techniques from diverse therapeutic styles, to best facilitate the client’s needs and ways to address their core concerns. I work in a long-term, sustained therapy format, which involves depth work and forming a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I provide my clients a safe space, rooted in empathy, compassion and genuineness. My specialised areas of work are : Emotional disturbances (anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation), Grief & Loss, Stress & Burnout, Motivation, Self-Esteem & Body Image, Trauma & Psychosomatic concerns, Postpartum Depression. Individuals I work with: Young Adults & Adults (Age 20-45), Children & Adolescent (Age 6-19), Parent-Child Relationships, Relationship dynamics (marital, romantic), Pre & Post Natal Counselling.

Prior appointment: Advance booking of the session a minimum of 7 days prior is advisable. This is essential for the therapist to ensure their availability for you, and from your end a small step of commitment towards your well-being. No of sessions: There are no set number of sessions that guarantee change. My modality is working on a long-term basis. A mutual check in on the progress of therapy is usually done after every 5-7 sessions. Duration: An ideal single session is 50 mins. For specific concerns or initial 1-3 sessions, extended session of 80 mins is advisable. Frequency: Sessions usually start with once a week and a sustained once a week session for a few months is highly recommended. Frequency of sessions will eventually taper, based on mutually decided parameters. Showing up on time: This is applicable for both, the therapist as well as the client. It is a simple yet effective gesture of respect and professionalism for the commitment towards the work. Adherence to the time-frame: This is a key framework in helping establish a safe, structured, and clear dynamic of containment in the therapeutic alliance. The therapist usually indicates 7-10 mins before the end of the session, to facilitate a closure to that session. Clear communication from both ends is the key for these frameworks to continue running effectively. In the first session, You and I shall sit through these logistics and ensure that therapy is a place where both of us show up with as much intention and care as possible.
Individuals seek therapy for various reasons and there are multiple approaches that therapists practice. However, long-term psychotherapy is for anyone who is inclined towards learning to have in-depth awareness & understanding of themselves, bring congruence in their thoughts-feelings-behaviour, reflect on patterns, develop mind-body integration, acquire skills to improve community/relationship connections, unlearn-relearn-build on healthy coping strategies, and gain insights & perspectives to navigate life situations/targeted concerns in a way that is helpful rather than causing distress. Psychotherapy is not a quick fix to your problems. It is an enduring, self-sustained commitment towards yourself and your healing.
