About Me

As a doctor with a passion for psychology, I offer a unique, informed perspective. My approach blends clinical understanding with compassionate psychological support. Drawing on my research background, I help you explore concerns and gain clarity. We can use practical techniques, including insights from NLP, to navigate challenges. Clients value my grounded style, finding a space where medical knowledge meets dedicated psychological care.

Approach

My sessions are grounded in clinical insight and focused on turning that understanding into practical steps you can apply in everyday life. I work with care and at a pace that feels safe for you, focusing on small, meaningful changes over time. Based in Chennai, I offer both in-person and online sessions in English, Tamil, and Telugu, making therapy more accessible and adaptable to your needs. Together, we combine present-moment awareness, values-based decision-making, and evidence-informed practices tailored to concerns such as abuse, anxiety, sexual difficulties, mood changes, or burnout, while leaving space for reflection and gentle exploration.
