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.

We help clients gain clarity, make informed decisions, and develop strategies to tackle challenges effectively. We provide a non judgmental and confidential environment in which clients can engage the messiness of life with curiosity, perspective and creativity.

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.

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.

My primary goal is to help individuals navigate life's challenges, understand their emotions, thoughts, and behaviours, and foster positive mental well-being. I specialise in providing, counselling, and psychological assessments tailored to each client's unique needs. Utilising evidence-based practices and a compassionate approach, I work collaboratively with clients to identify patterns, develop coping strategies, and promote personal growth and resilience. I aim to empower individuals to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives.
