Hey!
I'm Sagar, a counseling psychologist (Msc. Psychology) with 1+ years and 400+ sessions of experience.
I use a very personalized approach and depend on a mix of approaches in therapy, pulling from humanistic, existential, ACT, CBT, and DBT methods. Essentially, I help you explore your values and beliefs, accept tough feelings, and develop better ways to cope and relate to others, while also providing a safe and non-judgmental space for self-discovery and growth.
I work with concerns like social anxiety, relationship troubles, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress and lifestyle related concerns.
The therapist is your co-traveler on a difficult journey through the darkness within, hoping and striving diligently to find the light underneath.
Know More About Me as a Therapist
Therapy is a collaborative relationship between a therapist and a client where the goal is to alleviate suffering and facilitate growth. It's a process where the therapist puts effort to provide client with a safe space to share their concerns and strives to empathically understand the client and their lives. Once both, safety and understanding is established, the process involves making a collaborative effort towards achieving the goals of alleviating suffering and facilitating growth.
How I think of therapy
I strive to have the courage to confront (what seem to be) demons and the compassion to unleash the angels behind the demonic masks.
How I am as a therapist
I have been super curious to understand how to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. My deep and personal contact with suffering and a relentless desire to find answers to the complexity of human mind and life pulled me towards studying psychology. Become a therapist was a natural consequence of curiosity about life and contact with suffering.
Why I Became a Therapist
I get to dive deeper into understanding the root of human suffering and finding ways to alleviate it. Nothing is more meaningful to me than being able to help and support someone in alleviating their suffering and progress towards reaching their potential.
