About Me

Namaste!

"Have you ever longed for help from someone who actually gets you?"

I am so glad you’re here.

I’m Kanishka.A seasoned Licensed Clinical and Forensic Psychologist. I do try to see people from where they are coming from which helps me in connecting with them in a much better manner.As a therapist I am humbled by the experience of walking with hundreds of people on their journey through difficulties and obstacles in life to emerge with a new sense of Direction, Purpose and Peace. 

I am NOT a smile and nod therapist; that's just not my style.  Instead, I roll up my sleeves and get in the 'Storm' with you. I believe in your capacity to grow because I see my clients doing that everyday.

Languages I speak- English, Hindi

“Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect
of mental health;safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.”

My Approach and Specialty areas.

People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, 
I don't find myself saying, "Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner.
I don't try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds.”
― Carl R. Rogers, A Way of Being

My backgroud is in Third wave Cognitive behavior therapies like Dialectical Behavior therapy, Acceptance & Commitment therapy, Emotional Focussed Therapy , Metacognitive therapy , RF- CBT and Trauma focussed approaches like Structural dissociation Model and Internal family systems therapy(IFS).

In my point of view therapy is more than just talk with some structure and skills training you can be helped in a better manner through therapy . You will also see me using some assessments and questionnaires with you so that I can make sure that the therapy is moving ahead on the right track.
