Summary

I have five years of experience working in the field of psychology. I have worked with a wide range of clients of all ages in a variety of settings, including schools, psychiatric wards, and counseling centers. I support an eclectic approach, believing that different therapies are effective for different types of clients. I also spend a lot of time observing clients and engaging with them. I worked with patients who were experiencing drug misuse, low self-esteem, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts. I was also a member of a team at the Vadodara international suicide prevention conference. I also have case history, mental status examination (MSE), and psychological testing experience.
