Hi, I'm Rashna! I’m a trauma-informed independent mental health practitioner and a trained EMDR therapist. I specialise in working with adults experiencing Anxiety, Trauma, Mood Concerns and Relational Concerns. Why did I choose to work in the field of mental health? It is much too often that I get asked this very question. A glimpse into the world of psychology was all it took to help me find my safe space and my anchor. Studying and eventually exploring the world of mental health has impacted me at the very molecular level. Now, my in-depth training and professional experiences have come together to help me create a non-judgemental safe space for my clients to fall, break down and rebuild themselves back up again. Professionally, I carry out one-on-one therapy sessions using my training and experience with EMDR, RECBT to name a few. However, my approach to therapy is often eclectic and tailor-made with an emphasis on human connection. Ever-so-often, I also combine my practice of therapy with my love for the written word, conduct group endeavours and give guest speeches.
