No matter how long taking that first step has been on your mind, I'm here and I'm eager to hear you out. Whether it is major life challenges, unresolved feelings from the past or anxieties facing into your future, I'm your sounding board backed with accredited training and experience in counselling and I'm working towards a pathway to being a provisional psychologist.
I also have a male Wellness Coach working in my practice who is fluent in Tamil and has working proficiency in Malayalam and Hindi who can assist with general wellness concerns.
Many clients say to me that I "just get it" and this is what I do best - helping you feel acknowledged, supported and understood. I'm here to help with the little things that may be holding you back or to stand by your side as you take on bigger challenges, no matter how dark they may appear.
My aim is to create a safe road to recovery, toward the ultimate goal of not only feeling better, but also to go out in the world on your own with confidence. If any of this resonates with you, feel free to set a time with me or reach out for a 15-minute consultation to hear a bit more.
