Hey! I am Ankita and I’m a Psychotherapist. I have a double Masters in Clinical psychology with an experience of 8 years. I am also a Certified EMDR  (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) practitioner, trained in helping clients process trauma and distressing experiences.

I deeply believe in working toward people’s potential to rewrite their own stories. Witnessing clients making progress and working toward their goals is a fulfilling and rewarding experience for me.​ Using an eclectic framework, I assist the clients to gain awareness about the context of their responses, cultivate radical acceptance, and build adaptive resources to facilitate healing. ​

As a therapist, I adopt a trauma-informed lens in my work as it enables me to honor a client’s journey from a more compassionate than a critical lens. Using effective relational practices, I am able to affirm the clients’ lived experiences. Major themes of my work with a client include building physical and emotional safety, trust, and maintaining a collaborative association by offering choice and control to the client, focusing on their strengths, and empowering them to build skillsets and a sense of agency.
