As an alumnus of University of Greenwich and Queen Mary’s university of London, I have had the opportunity to learn and research under the guidance of leading practitioners and experts in the field. I have learned state-of-the-art therapies from leading pioneers like Tien Kuei, Marrion Furr, Andy Phee offered by University of Oxford. These formative years were spent on understanding the nuances of this psychology, on engaging in experiential learning by undergoing the therapeutic process myself under the guidance of the best in the field. As Irvin Yalom rightfully said, “To fully relate to another, one must first relate to oneself”. It has chiselled my therapeutic skills and provided me with a unique perspective to therapy, growth, healing and meaning.
Now, I am getting the opportunity to return to my home-land and help my people with the resources I have gained in all these years. Outside of work, I am a self-proclaimed poet and a painter.
I embody a person-centred approach, guided by the client’s needs and wants in life. I am flexible and open which allows me to follow scientific traditions when useful and drop them as required by the client. I use warmth and an inviting presence to build a safe cocoon for my client where they can make mistakes, learn and grow. Being a FAP therapist, I bring my authentic self in the therapy room and focus on building a genuine therapeutic relationship.
