Approach to therapy

Hi, I’m Hartika. Thank you for visiting my website.
As a counselling psychologist, my approach is warm, eclectic, and grounded in a client-centred framework. I truly believe that healing happens in a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected, and I work to build a therapeutic relationship that honours your unique experiences and pace. I draw from a blend of evidence-based approaches—using tools from dialectical behaviour therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and trauma-informed principles. My approach is collaborative and flexible, and I aim to meet you where you are, supporting insight, resilience, and meaningful change in a way that feels manageable and right for you. In my experience so far, this approach is especially helpful for individuals who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or impacted by past experiences—offering both practical tools and a supportive space to reconnect with themselves and move toward the life they want to create.

“Each person is an island unto himself, in a very real sense: and he can only build bridges to other islands if he is first of all willing to be himself and permitted to be himself.”
