Ms Kanika Gandhi

Certified Rehabilitation Counselor

Experienced psychologist with 8 years of experience in a school setting, hospital, and NGO. My objective is to make use of an eclectic approach with my clients. I am skilled in Play therapy, CBT, Parent-child interaction therapy, creative movement (certification), Solution -focused brief therapy, mindfulness.

About Me

Drawing on eight years in diverse settings—schools, hospitals, and NGOs—I support individuals and families navigating life's challenges. My eclectic approach blends techniques to fit your needs. We might use creative movement to express feelings, or Solution-Focused Brief Therapy for practical steps forward. I tailor sessions, whether for children with Play Therapy or parents seeking guidance. This varied background helps me meet you effectively, offering understanding and tools for your unique journey.

Approach

You'll find sessions are hands-on and goal-minded, using play, movement and creative expression to help name feelings and try new steps. I work with people in Delhi and online, offering care in English or Hindi/Urdu and adapting pace to your needs. We practice skills in-session, set small between-session experiments, and use mindful, values-based and expressive strategies to restore safety, function and choice after trauma or with physical disability. This approach often fits families and individuals seeking practical, compassionate progress.
