We work with the belief that each one of us is capable of finding solutions for himself/herself. Many of us go through situations where we feel lonely or lost, not knowing what to do or how to move forward. Thoughts are cluttered, feelings unacknowledged, and actions lack the conviction of purpose. We look for someone who can listen to us, who can clarify our thoughts and feelings and can facilitate exploring options which can help us move forward in life.
Counselling is a process that can help in bringing clarity to our thinking and help us tap into our internal resources to address situations differently. It can help in the elimination of lots of unwanted thoughts and behaviours thus reducing the risk of serious problems later on. Usually, people don’t need advice. Most of the time, all they need is a hand to hold, an ear to listen and a heart to understand. That is what counselling is all about.
We offer personal counselling services to adults and one-on-one parenting guidance. We also work with children one-on-one (in specific cases) with play therapy.
We have a holistic approach to addressing issues. We are focused on the parent-child domain and work with adults and children. We work with children who are going through behavioral issues or are going through a phase where they are having difficulty expressing their emotions. This is done using various interventions that can help address the issue. We also undertake play therapy wherever necessary. Children are at their natural when they are at play.
Child-centered play therapy is a non-intrusive /non-interrogative way to relate to a child with compassion. Giving the child acceptance helps the child to work out his/her emotions/ problems making him/her capable of dealing with a lot of things in the real world. The parent is also equally involved in the whole process of facilitating change. We work with the parent in parallel.
Subha Parthasarathy would be taking the counselling sessions. Please share as much information as possible in the enquiry form along with the time lines and we will get back to you soon. Most counselling slots are booked well in advance. Regarding children who are not adults, we meet the parents to understand the challenges and interact with the child only if necessary. Post covid, our counselling sessions are done online.
