Disorder in ourselves and our relationships is a manifestation of unmet needs. The pain and distress we experience is often what brings us to therapy, as a problem to sort out but in fact, this pain response is an adaptive and survival orientated signal, telling us to pay attention. These signals are built in mechanisms communicating to us that something is out of balance; and we need to do something in order to restore our sense of balance. If we try to ignore the message or suppress it with substances or distraction, the symptoms do not disappear but but rather become amplified. Chaos and discomfort are fertile soil for change.

My name is Nayana, pronounced "9na"/ "Nine-nah". When it comes to counselling, I believe that the sustained impact of a Client's counselling work actually begins when they leave my counselling space; where they, independently, apply what they've learnt and pursue a healthier relationship with themself and the environments they interact with. For this purpose, I collaborate with my Client to create a safe space to explore, acknowledge, and develop an understanding of their internal dynamics, coping mechanisms, and opportunities for change. I use relevant counselling approaches that are tailored to meet each Clients' unique needs.

As an experienced social worker with years of intensive experience, I offer a wide range of counseling services to address various client needs. From addiction counseling to mental health issues and stress management, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenging situations and find a path towards healing and growth. My extensive experience allows me to provide tailored support that meets the unique needs of each client, ensuring that they receive the highest level of care and guidance.

I am a licensed Independent Clinical Psychologist who renders psychological services and individualized therapy to children, adolescents and adults. I also enjoy working with couples, families and groups with psychological, emotional and behavioral challenges using an integrative evidence based approach. The therapeutic relationship is the most significant element of therapy and it is formed based on acceptance, authenticity, empathy and a non-judgemental stance for the client and their challenges.

Circumstances in life affect individuals on a daily basis, when these issues are left unattended they lead to mental illness which affects the total well-being of a person. You don't have to struggle in silence, share your experience, thoughts, and emotions with me, and working together we can restore hope in your life.

I like to work with individuals that realise that they need and deserve help, and someone who is ready and willing to work on themselves. Someone who wants to improve their coping mechanisms, their ability to manage stress, to manage their emotions, to deal with adjustment, to deal with change, to deal with past and current trauma, to learn to love and nurture themselves and improve their relationships wit others. People who want to shift old patterns that no longer serve them.
