About Me

I support individuals of all ages, from children to the elderly, and couples navigating their relationships. Together, we can explore a wide range of psychological issues. My approach integrates creative music therapy and focused hypnotherapy, offering diverse ways to process feelings and gain clarity. This flexible, client-centred style ensures support is tailored to your unique needs, helping you find lasting ways forward.

Approach

Therapy here blends focused conversation with guided relaxation and musical moments that help you name what's happening and try new responses. Sessions are held in Colombo and I work in English, Singales and Tamil, keeping the space accessible for children, adolescents, adults, couples and parents. We move at your pace—short practical exercises, reflective listening, occasional hypnotherapeutic focus and simple music-based practices to process anxiety, trauma, relationship strain or parenting challenges between meetings. Those seeking clearer perspective, steadier moods or stronger connections often find this approach helpful.
