About

I’m a Clinical Psychologist with over 7 years of clinical experience and 2 years of specialized training during my MPhil (Clinical Psychology) program. I hold an M.Phil in Clinical Psychology and an M.A. in Applied Psychology, and I’m licensed by the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI Registration No. A63528).Over the years, I’ve worked in a variety of settings including psychiatric hospitals, rehabilitation centers, academic institutions, and private practice. My experience spans individual psychotherapy, couple therapy, psychometric assessment, and diagnostic evaluations — with special expertise in queer and trans affirmative care, trauma and addiction recovery.I am trained in a wide range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Behaviour Therapy (BT), Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET), Relapse Prevention Therapy (RPT), and many more. While these form a strong foundation of my clinical work, I feel deeply aligned with third-wave psychotherapies that shift the focus from purely symptom reduction to developing psychological flexibility, enhancing self-awareness, and building a values-driven life.
I draw from a range of third-wave modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based therapies, and Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), among others. I have pursued specialized training in trauma informed care and my therapeutic orientation is strongly rooted in mindfulness and Positive Psychology.I adopt an eclectic, client-centered approach—carefully tailoring interventions to the unique needs and context of each individual—because I firmly believe that there’s no one-size-fits-all in therapy.Currently, I offer therapy under the name The Affirmative Healing, an inclusive and affirming space where you can explore, heal, and grow — at your own pace, and in your own way.
