During my younger days, I was very interested in understanding human beings, particularly their thinking and behavioural systems. Due to the limited exposure to the psychology and counselling field during my generation, I enrolled in the engineering program, where I graduated and worked for two years as an engineer before operating my own Taekwondo gym.  To fulfill my existential wish to be a mental health professional, I began the journey in the therapeutic field with a practitioner diploma in clinical hypnotherapy and a master’s degree in counselling.

My area of expertise in counselling includes addiction, where I am currently dealing with clients with addiction problems. Besides addiction, my other areas of interest include depression, anxiety, stress management, LGBTQ, existential issues, personality, self-esteem, OCD, relationships, education, career, and dream analysis.

I am a strong believer in the idea that during every stage of life, regaining a sense of meaning will enhance the psychological well-being of individuals.

When I am not working, you will probably find me:

• Spending time with family members
• Going for a run or hitting the sandbag
• Self-hypnosis and self-talk
• ME time such as an LRT ride or driving around

How I recharge and stay grounded

• Food, buffet style
• Seeing old photographs induces a sense of appreciation for life
• Visiting old shopping malls or any kind of historical building
