Miss Shivani Khemka

Counseling Psychologist

I am a counselling psychologist and I am passionate about facilitating people's journey of accepting themselves and becoming more conscious of their feelings, thought, beliefs, & body, in order to establish a trusting relationship with themselves. My therapy modality includes Inner Child Therapy, EFT, Hypnotherapy, CBT

About Me

When you feel disconnected or unsure of yourself, I can help you build a stronger relationship with your inner world. We'll explore your feelings, thoughts, and beliefs, fostering deep self-acceptance. Using techniques like Inner Child Therapy, I guide you to understand your past and nurture a trusting bond with yourself. This approach is ideal if you seek to truly understand and embrace who you are.

Approach

When disconnection surfaces, I guide you to notice subtle bodily signals and small memories so the work feels exploratory and safely paced. Sessions—in Varanasi or online, in English or Hindi/Urdu—blend gentle somatic checks, guided imagery, brief experiments and reflective tasks you can try between meetings to test new ways of relating to yourself and others. I collaborate closely, naming patterns and holding curiosity rather than blame. This approach often fits people who want a steady, compassionate route back to emotional balance and clearer choices.
