Mrs Sathiya Venkatesan

Professional Nurse

An experienced mental health nurse, practising in UK currently. I am dealing with extensive range of mental health conditions in assessing the needs/ problems and offering psychological interventions like counselling, psycho education, depression &anxiety management, DBT, CBT etc.,

About Me

As an experienced mental health nurse in the UK, I help individuals navigate a wide range of mental health challenges. We’ll collaboratively assess your unique needs, offering tailored psychological interventions. For example, I provide practical psychoeducation to help you make sense of your experiences. This approach supports you in managing conditions like depression and anxiety, offering clear guidance and effective tools. It suits those seeking a grounded, comprehensive path towards improved well-being.

Approach

When we meet, my priority is turning assessment into a clear, practical plan you can use straight away. I work from Gateshead, offering sessions in English and Tamil and online across the UK, and I keep each meeting focused and time‑sensitive so you leave with one or two manageable steps. Sessions mix focused listening, brief skills practice and collaborative problem‑solving, with simple between‑session tasks to build momentum. This way of working tends to help adults facing anxiety, life changes, stress or relationship strain.
