About me

🌟 Hello, I'm Vivek Kumar G!🌟 I’m a dedicated trainee counselling psychologist based in Bengaluru, currently pursuing a Master’s in Psychological Counselling. My passion lies in making mental health support accessible, particularly for children. I believe in a person-centred approach, tailoring therapy to each individual’s unique needs, ensuring a safe space for growth and self-expression. For children, I incorporate Play therapy to help them express emotions in a creative and non-threatening way. 🎨💬 As a certified lay counselor at ASK, I provide pro bono counselling services to those in need, fostering an environment built on trust, empathy, and confidentiality. In addition to my counselling work, I’m developing a mental health program for schools, focusing on stress management and building coping strategies, particularly for students from marginalized communities. 🏫✨ I currently serve as a School Counsellor at Excellent English School, where I conduct individual and group sessions, develop mental health programs, and ensure that every student has the support needed to thrive emotionally and socially. 🌈 I also actively volunteer at NIMHANS, contributing to community outreach efforts that raise awareness about mental health, reduce stigma, and empower families with coping strategies and certification in Motivational Interviewing, Mental Health Education & Promotion and Internships at NIMHANS.💬 My work is grounded in various therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT). These approaches help clients overcome challenges, reframe negative thought patterns, and achieve their personal goals with confidence. If you're ready to take the first step toward emotional well-being, I’d be honoured to work with you! ✨
