About Me

I guide individuals grappling with depression and its related challenges. We explore human consciousness practices, helping you understand and manage your inner experience. My approach blends successful complimentary techniques, offering a holistic path to lasting relief. This work suits those ready to connect deeply with their mind and navigate persistent low mood.

Approach

Expertise in human consciousness informs how I structure sessions: concise psychodiagnostic checks, guided mindfulness and reflective dialogue that emphasize present-moment noticing and intentional shifts. From my base in Colombo I offer sessions in English and Singales, both in-person and online, paced to your readiness. Sessions blend assessment, spiritual reflection and collaborative planning; between meetings I may suggest simple practices to translate insight into steady mood changes. Those ready to explore inner experience with steady support tend to find this way helpful.
