A bit about me

I am a Sri Lankan Tamil psychotherapist who works from a strength based approach as I believe that cultural and intersectional identities form a rich foundation in meaning making and how learnt patterns play out within our narratives.

My therapeutic style is warm and explorative and I also use transcultural, person-centred, existential and narrative approaches as well as early attachment theories to frame our therapeutic work. I work from a trauma informed lens, and have experience working with sexual trauma as well as intergenerational trauma following migration within the NHS, charity and private sector.

People often come to see me about exploring their identities alongside relationships with their parents, friends, partners, balancing different cultures, trauma, sexual assault, race-related stress as well as a place to soundboard thoughts and ideas.

I am currently on a planned leave until 8th Jan 2026 when I’ll be back in practice.

When booking, any of our in person sessions can be changed to a virtual session. Book your session first and then pop the therapist and hey@theselfspace.com an email to let them know.
