About Radha:
Psychologist
Radha is a psychologist with extensive international experience and a deep understanding of delivering comprehensive mental health services to diverse populations. Although her primary interest lies in working with children and adolescents, Radha has extensive experience and knowledge working across the lifespan as she adopts a collaborative approach to ensure optimal outcomes for her clients. Radha has a wealth of experience in dealing with a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, transition, ADHD management, adjustment difficulties, OCD and PANDAS. She firmly believes that regardless of location, psychological well-being plays a crucial role in individuals’ daily lives, impacting their families, friends, schools, neighbourhoods, and communities.
Radha is committed to staying current with evidence-based therapeutic approaches to ensure she provides effective therapy. Her therapeutic approach is predominantly grounded in Cognitive Therapy, with a strong focus on cognitive-behavioural principles. She places great emphasis on understanding and challenging dysfunctional thought patterns, as she believes this directly influences emotions and behaviours. Radha prioritizes building a strong therapeutic rapport, recognizing it as the cornerstone of effective therapy, and aims to establish a supportive and trusting environment early in the therapeutic process. Her therapy sessions encourage individuals to engage in safe and non-judgmental self-reflection, exploring alternative perspectives on problems, and acquiring practical coping skills and strategies to effectively manage future difficulties.
Radha has valuable experience working in telehealth and recognize its benefits. Telehealth provides an opportunity for individuals who may have otherwise been unable to seek treatment to access therapy. Recognizing that therapy can be overwhelming for some clients, telehealth offers a medium through which they can acquire the necessary skills to manage distressing times. Additionally, the flexibility of engaging in therapy from any location makes it a desirable and widely accessible option.
Radha consults in English.
