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
