Ms Nimisha Goenka, MSc
Counseling Psychologist
“My philosophy is centered on the belief that every individual has the inner strength and potential to heal and grow. I view therapy as a collaborative journey, where the therapist acts as a guide, helping clients tap into their resilience and self-awareness. I whole-heartedly believe that emotional well-being stems from self-compassion, understanding one's own experiences, and embracing change. I value a holistic approach, addressing both the mind and body.”
About Me
What started as an elective subject in high school slowly unfolded into a lifelong calling. I’ve been immersed in the world of psychology through study, research, and practice, since 2016. Growing up, therapy was often kept behind closed doors, whispered about with deep-rooted stigma.
But as I learned more, I saw that therapy isn’t just for crisis or formal diagnoses - it is also a powerful tool for growth, healing, and navigating life’s messy, in-between moments. Along the way, I’ve seen just how deeply our mental health shapes every part of who we are - our thoughts, emotions, relationships and physical health.
This is my endeavour at creating the supportive and empathetic space I wish I had when I was younger. My hope is that this space not only offers compassionate support, but also helps spark a wider, kinder conversation about mental health and neurodiversity.
Approach
My eclectic approach towards therapy is rooted in empathy, active listening, and collaboration. I tailor our therapeutic methods to each individual, integrating practices like cognitive-behavioural therapy, mindfulness, and through a trauma-informed lens. My approach blends evidence-based techniques with a deep understanding of each client’s unique needs, empowering them to achieve emotional well-being and personal growth. I emphasize building a trusting therapeutic relationship, encouraging our clients to explore their emotions and experiences openly. This approach tends to suit adolescents, parents, and adults navigating transitions or overwhelm.
