About me and my therapy practice
I am a warm, approachable, caring and an experienced Psychotherapist, Counsellor & Supervisor, offering you a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space. I work with Adults, Couples, Trainees & Supervisees, Families & Young people (16+).I am also an accredited member of the UKCP.
Practice description
I am of Indian origin and have grown up in the UK most of my life, so English is my main language. I have experienced various life challenges between the values of my own heritage, and those I have grown up with in the UK. I therefore take a very considered and empathetic approach in understanding you and your life experiences. I will fully embrace and respect you at all times, regardless of your background.
I view Supervision as being crucial to supporting trainees and qualified therapists in developing and gaining insights into their client work, as well as continually maintaining and refining good practice. Consequently my role as your Supervisor will be to support you with your client work and empower you to enhance your professional development. Although my main approach to supervision is Transactional Analysis, I also use other integrative methods in my work to best suit supervises needs and specific challenges they may be facing in their client work.
With my role as a psychotherapist, my approach at all times is to empower clients to make own decisions, and support them in making choices that lead them to living a more joyful, positive and fulfilling life; one that focuses on wellness, success, and having closer relationship with others.
