Summary

Hi! I am Lakshmi Kashyap, a practicing Counselling Psychologist. I have experience dealing with stress management, adjustment issues, interpersonal challenges, relationship difficulties, self-esteem and worth, grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, eating disorders, among other things. I adopt an eclectic approach with client-centered roots. I also draw insights from bio-socio perspectives, with cultural connotation, helping me be mindful of the client's cultural background. This helps me tailor my treatments and interventions to best suit each client's unique needs and purposes. I am positive that I will be a great addition to your organization. I am constantly upskilling in order to keep up with the current trends in practices.

I bring a set of comprehensive skills that I believe will be valuable to your organization. My people-centric nature and compassion have offered me excellent communication skills. I am excited to contribute my proficiency and talents in planning toward your team's efforts. As an engaging communicator with a proven record in developing plans of action for treatment and everyday challenges, my focus on building strong professional relationships has been a beneficial asset throughout my career.
