What is therapy to me? I believe that therapy is a process and the therapist is like a mirror who helps to get an objective opinion about the situation, life, people around us which in turn helps to improve their quality of life. Psychotherapy does not seek to transport one to an impossible state of happiness, but to help (the client) acquire steadfastness and patience during suffering.

Therapeutic approach: I believe in a strength-based appraoch. It is important to identify one’s character strengths like courage, humanity, justice and optimism to reach a purposeful and meaningful life. One can strive to find the resources and learn the coping strategies to make life worth living. Hence, therapy can train them to harness the power of shifting one’s perspective to maximize the potential for contentment in everyday behaviours.
