Issues I can help with
I have experience working with a wide range of complex issues, be it in individual or group settings, from private practice to working in the charitable sector.
This has helped my clinical work, by providing me with the knowledge, understanding, and skills needed to relate to people from a range of cultural and social backgrounds.
It has also raised my awareness of the factors that may impact a person’s experience of mental health problems.
Where I can, I utilise my language skills and ‘mother tongue to support clients if it's applicable, which also helps to make the connection fluid. Services are available in Gujarati and Hindi.
I embrace a relational orientation with a particular interest in cultural and intergenerational trauma.
I am personally interested in the interaction between culture and therapeutic experience.
