My approach to working with clients is collaborative and caring. I believe that the relationship between a client and therapist is one of the most important factors to successful therapy and building a strong, trusting foundation is key. I really enjoy supporting people to work through the emotional blocks which are preventing them from living their fullest life. The focus of my work is usually around developing an understanding a client's story and their unmet needs, supporting them to meet those needs, develop compassion for themselves, and cope with challenges.

I love helping people make sense of their issues and get past them. Psychological science has come a long way and there are excellent strategies for most problems - often all that is needed is a clear grasp of what’s happening, a path forward, and some effort to put in the work.

Feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Putting your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Wondering if life should feel better and happier? Many people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how to manage their relationships, careers, and lives now more than ever. Ignoring your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. I believe that living a better life shouldn't be so hard.

I started Insession Counselling to provide therapy to people from all cultural backgrounds, gender identities and sexual orientations. Navigating my own experiences of marginalisation and intersectionality as a queer Sri-Lankan woman has allowed me to truly understand how culture, gender and sexuality shape so much of who we are and how we experience relationships. I combine this lived experience with evidence-based psychological interventions so that the therapy you receive is tailored specifically to you.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the challenges of your disability or new medical diagnosis? ​Disability and medical diagnosis can cause deep levels of distress, uncertainty, fear and overwhelm. It is a time when lots of new medical information is being presented bringing up both familiar and unfamiliar feelings. This makes it difficult to absorb and unpack information, manage daily tasks, get quality sleep and mobilise. If you have have lived with a disability for some time you might be struggling with a new challenging life moment that is impacting on your happiness and quality of life.

I also help people navigate the challenges associated with relationships, life transitions, depression, and anxiety. My therapy style is integrative, utilising evidence-based modalities like EMDR, Schema, IFS, psychodynamic approaches, Mindfulness, and ACT. As a trained yoga teacher, I weave these practices along with somatic work into therapy. Additionally, I am appropriately trained to provide psychedelic integration & preperation support.
