Miss Nadeeka Nilmini, MPsych

Psychologist

verified by TherapyRoute

Professional psychologist who works with a multidisciplinary team with special needs and differently-abled children. I offer therapeutic services for children and adolescents. Also, offer internship opportunities for students.

About Me

I am a psychologist dedicated to supporting children and adolescents, especially those with special needs or different abilities. I work closely with families, often collaborating with a multidisciplinary team, to create tailored therapeutic services. This ensures a comprehensive, nurturing space where young people can explore their feelings and develop skills. Ultimately, I help your child thrive, building confidence and resilience for their unique journey.

Approach

Helping your child thrive translates into sessions paced around attention spans and sensory needs, blending brief, playful tasks with quiet reflection to build skills and confidence. At my Rajagiriya clinic I work in English and Sinhalese, include caregivers in short check-ins, and coordinate with schools or therapists when helpful. Therapy often uses simple experiential steps, gentle values-focused work and guided visualisation, with clear, practical feedback between meetings to reinforce progress. Families seeking collaborative, structured support for children with diverse learning or developmental profiles tend to find this approach useful.
