My professional journey as a psychologist has seen me working with individuals from diverse backgrounds with a particular focus on adolescents and young professionals. I use an integrative approach which combines various tools and modalities such as trauma focused-Cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and solution-focused therapy, to create a tailored approach to the unique circumstances of each client.
I believe that holistic health includes mental health. I strive to provide a warm non-judgemental environment where clients can feel seen and heard. Where collaboration fosters healing and growth.
Its not always easy to take the first step and to ask for assistance. But your mental health matters and I look forward to walking this journey alongside you.
Take the first step to help. Michaela Moonsamy now
