Nisha

Ms Nisha Philips

Psychological Counselor

A counselor with practical experience with individuals for over 6 years. I am an ardent listener, dedicated to creating a nurturing and safe place to express your thoughts and feelings. I use a mix of approaches based on the need, from Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) to Client-Centered and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.

About Me

I support individuals, drawing on over six years’ experience to create a nurturing and safe space. As an ardent listener, I tailor our sessions to your unique needs. We might explore practical Cognitive Behavioural tools or focus on your unique perspective in a client-centred way. This flexible approach helps clients understand themselves and find clear ways forward.

Approach

Sessions move at a pace you set: we listen closely to what matters most, try practical steps together, and reflect on what shifts feel useful. I offer appointments in Bengaluru and online, working in English and Malayalam so you can use the language that helps you think and feel most clearly. Conversations often combine short, focused tools with deeper reflection—safety, boundaries and day-to-day coping are threaded through, with brief tasks between meetings to notice change. This way of working suits people seeking clear, collaborative support.
