About

I am a queer-affirmative, trauma-informed, inclusive and eclectic Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist in private practice (online & offline), trained in psychometry and psychotherapy for all mental illnesses and allied emotional disturbances.

I believe that the act of healing through psychological interventions is an authentic human endeavor based on the pillars of genuine understanding, empathy and compassion. I advocate that individuals feel the most empowered when they can rise above their diagnoses and are taught to take charge of their emotional and mental well-being in a team-effort, despite constitutional vulnerabilities and environmental adversities.

I prefer eclecticism in the way I work as effective management in my experience needs to be custom-tailored individually for each person.

I have been trained extensively in conducting personality, intelligence, diagnostic and neuropsychological assessments among others.

I also have experience in various intervention modalities such as Psychoeducation, Supportive Therapy, Behavioral Therapy and Modification, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Cognitive Training and Remediation, Humanistic Therapy, Psychodynamic and Existential Therapy, Parental Training and Counseling, Crisis intervention, Couple Therapy and Group Meetings and Therapy. In the past few years of my vocational training and professional involvements, I have received exposure in several clinical settings such as government and private hospitals, private clinics, NGO’s, special schools, rehabilitation and de-addiction centres, shelters and homes, therapeutic communities and In-Patient set ups.

I have specifically executed treatment plans for cases with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, conditions of psychosis, substance abuse and dependence, neurocognitive disorders, autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disability, emotional and behavioral problems, situational and familial stress, relationship conflict and psychological problems owing to other medical conditions. 

I also have experience in conducting workshops and I have 2 national and 1 international publications to my credit.
