Hi, I am Shiuli. I'm a psychotherapist offering online therapy sessions to adolescents and adults between the ages of 16 and 40. I hold a Master’s in Psychology (Psycho-social Clinical Studies) from Ambedkar University Delhi, with over a year of experience conducting individual therapy sessions under supervision.

My work is informed by psychoanalytical and relational approaches. In practice, this means I tend to work long-term and in-depth, staying responsive to what emerges in our sessions while remaining attentive to the entirety of your inner life. What draws me to this work is my interest in the ways we can know something about ourselves and yet find ourselves living in ways that seem to contradict what we know. For me, therapy is a space where this gap can be lived, explored, and thought about.

A central aspect of the work we do together is creating a space where you can speak as freely as possible, and where your thoughts, feelings and dreams can be met with empathetic listening. I see this kind of listening can allow us to engage with your experiences differently than you have before, and open up possibilities for understanding what may have previously felt difficult to make sense of. Alongside what you are able to speak about, we also make room for and remain attentive to aspects of your experience that are difficult to talk about, that resist articulation, or that remain outside of conscious awareness. Such experiences may make themselves known through recurring patterns, a sense of stuckness, painful relationship dynamics, or other forms of psychic distress. Through the process of speaking and listening and staying with what emerges, we can begin to explore these experiences together. At the core of this process is the therapeutic relationship we build over time. I see this relationship as creating a space where sustained and reflective engagement with difficult experiences.can gradually make way for meaningful change, and for a life with more room in it for work, play, and love.
