Asian Counselling in Warfield

How are you feeling? If you are feeling really low, anxious or lacking confidence, you are not alone. My team and I can help using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and psychotherapy to make you feel yourself again. We can help with depression, anxiety and stress. We support children, adolescents and adults. We have a lot of experience working with autistic clients, clients with health conditions, people who have a twin, and those from a South African or South Asian/Indian backgrounds. It’s so important to find a therapist that you can trust and open up to, so we work hard to create a non-judgemental, confidential and safe space.

As a therapist, I believe our personal experiences have a profound impact on how we perceive and interact with the world around us. We receive messages on how we should live our lives, and we learn to accommodate those messages in hopes to "fit in" with society. As an Asian gay man and being sent to boarding school, I understand the challenges of living authentically while also trying to honour the norms, values, and expectations of the community you come from.

Hi, I am Varsha and I would like to introduce myself. The slogan is "Everyone can transform from the ugly duckling to the real swan they are meant to be". In these few words of this quote, I am introducing myself. like you, I am a person who has experienced life's up's and down's, has been in the depth of the well of sadness, confusion, wanting to let everything go ... I have screamed, hidden, while been in the dark, cold and surrounded by walls that are getting more narrow by the hour. Strangely something inside me woke up because someone heard me screaming "help", even when I was embarrassed asking for support.

We all meet challenges, issues and pinch points in our lives and I am no exception. Whether it be making important decisions, dealing with loss, coping with challenging experiences/trauma, low confidence/self esteem it can be difficult to navigate our way through to lead our lives the way we want.

Talking therapy can help!

As a gestalt counselor, I believe we are all born equipped with resources and ability to lead fulfilling lives. However, often during childhood or later in life, something interrupts this process and we become stuck in fixed patterns and beliefs about our selves that get in the way. I see my task as a counselor to help you see more clearly what your situation is, find out how you are part of it and experiment with finding new solutions or ways to face the difficulty. I have direct experience working with adults and young people from different cultural backgrounds.
