Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Gavleborg County

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 8 years of experience. I have worked as a psychologist in Sweden, the United Kingdom and the UAE. My mission is to create a safe and open place where you can explore your feelings, thoughts and life challenges. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout or other psychological concerns such as low self-esteem or identity issues? Are you adjusting to a major life transition? Facing existential concerns? I am here to provide you with accessible and effective support and guidance.

I aim to help do self analysis constructively and get insight into various problems. Together with the client find solutions to personal and professional issues. I help my clients to manage stress, anxiety, reduce conflicts in relationships, improve rational thinking, depression, negative thinking and have worked with all age groups. Together we analyse the situations, people and the tasks at hand to get positive outcomes. I have successfully handled cases of exam anxiety, pathological job changing behaviour, pathological liar, parenting of teenagers, marriage counselling, couple counselling, learning disability, social anxiety.

Maybe you dwell alot on the past or the future. You worry about your loved ones or your own challenges in life. Critize yourself and often feel anxiety even if much in your life is satisfying. Trouble setting/upholding boundaries? Feel exhausted due to the challenges in life. And what you would love is to be able to manage your thoughts/your overthinking and feel more peace and contentment in life.

One of the core principles in Cognitive Psychotherapy states that the way in which people understand, explain and conceptualize the problems they suffer in life is itself a big part of those problems. You might be feeling anxiety as a consequence of overthinking, you might be experiencing your mood going down after using certain concepts or words to define yourself, you might be feeling frustrated after a relationship didn't work out as you expected... In all cases your mind plays a main role, and the way how your thoughts connect with your emotions and create certain behaviours forms patterns that we can discuss in a safe space.

I am an enthusiastic, energetic and reliable individual with a wealth of experiences combined with appropriate qualifications who has been supporting individuals through general, complex and diverse issues they may experience. I believe in creative yet simple ways to bring out positive emotional, social and cognitive changes in people. I have a diverse and comprehensive educational background from the University of Adelaide and Delhi (India). I have current police checks, all my DCSI screenings. Providing E-Counselling to Asians and Indians. In one sentence, encouraging self care, positivity and mental health is my life’s passion.

Some times, all it takes is a change in perspective, an idea, or a small encounter that can transform your life. I have struggled with depression and anxiety and have found a way to live differently. I have decided to change my life and moved to a different country. I have suffered heartbreak and kept the courage to continue to love. I have changed jobs countless times. In these short years of life, I can say I have found people, ideas, theories, and practices that have helped me become a stronger human being. I want share what I have learned and help you also to create your life as you intend to live it.

I work with clients who are suffering from stress or anxiety, or struggling with low mood or feeling unhappy . I have helped people get rid of problem behaviours and the thought patterns preventing them from making the most of their lives and relationships. I also help people with culture shock, and adapting to life in a new country.
