About Me

Anahata is my practice where I provide a safe space for anyone who wants to find their healing.

Hello & Welcome!

 

I am Gayathri. Thanks for visiting my website. 

I have a M.Sc., in Counselling and Psychotherapy. 

My practice is called Anāhata-The Heart Mind therapy.

Our heart is a mind in itself that harbours memories of the past and nurtures the visions of our future. To heal oneself holistically and to live a fulfilling future of our dreams, healing the heart of its painful memories is essential.

Fun Fact: Research into testimonies gathered from people who have had heart transplants prove this.  

My passion is helping people harness their own power and potential to lead a more meaningful life. I do this by helping individuals navigate their inner world and find balance. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives and nurture well-being. 

This is why, in my practice as a person-centred therapist, I consider and centre you as the experiencer, astute observer and active driver of your own life. For example, I believe that when you feel the life you have been living is causing you to experience discomfort, confusion, frustration, sadness and any other emotions, you may make a conscious choice to change it for yourself. 

 

​My role as a therapist is to create a space where openness, impartiality, safety, stability, trustworthiness, and confidentiality are prioritised.

 

A space where you feel your thoughts are allowed to be aloud without restriction and your feelings and emotions can have an expression.

My Approach

 Person Centered Approach

Carl Rogers, the founder of person-centered approach is explaining it briefly below...

​I believe that you as a client know best what hurts and that you have within you the capacity to begin your healing.

 

Therefore, I provide an environment where you can experience

 

1. Unconditional positive regard - A deep acceptance of You.

 

2. Empathy - A willingness to understand You.

 

3. Congruence - A commitment to being genuine in our relationship with You.​

 

These distinctive qualities, offered professionally and consistently, in a safe, supportive and reflective therapeutic environment has the benefit of causing change.

 Motivational Interviewing Approach

Here is a video that explains how Motivational interviewing technique is used in counselling...

​I use Motivational Interviewing (MI) to guide clients who require more goal-oriented approach towards change.

 

For e.g., for presenting issues such as Addiction, Depression and Lack of motivation MI is proved to be beneficial.​

 

1. Guiding - This is a guiding style communication that follows your own motivation for change.

 

2. Client's Autonomy - This style focusses on empowering you by focussing on your own capacity and importance for change.

 

3. Therapist way of being - The process is facilitated by the therapist remaining respectful and curious of your process of change.
