About Me

Drawing on 18 years of clinical experience, I guide individuals and couples. My approach integrates Counseling psychology with practical tools like clinical hypnotherapy. I offer tailored support for your unique journey. We can explore past trauma or develop new life skills, fostering resilience. Clients appreciate my calm, experienced presence and the comprehensive, adaptable space I create for growth.

Approach

With training in counselling psychology, hypnotherapy, trauma-specialist techniques and coaching, I shape sessions around your pace and priorities so change feels manageable and clear. Working from Colombo and online in English, sessions are steady and focused — short checks, deeper explorations, and practical homework between meetings to anchor progress. I use gentle trance work, grounding tools and targeted conversation to help shift patterns, repair relationships and reduce overwhelm. This way of working suits people who want practical, paced change with compassionate clinical support.
