Ambika Shekhawat
Couple and Individual Psychotherapist
Ambika Shekhawat
Professional profile:
I am a qualified individual and couple psychotherapist, offering both short term and long term psychotherapy. I have trained at Tavistock Relationships, a well-reputed institute for psychotherapy and relationship counselling, where I also worked as a Visiting Clinician and Assessor.
Starting therapy can be an exciting yet daunting process. You may have a lot of questions or feel trepidation at the idea of embarking on it. What I hope to provide you with is a safe, empathetic and non-judgemental space where we can begin to explore these anxieties and work towards reducing conflict, fostering curiosity and building self-awareness. I specialise in the psychodynamic model, with the focus on making sense of past experiences and understanding its effect on the present.
The below are some of the areas that I work with:
- Difficulty Building Lasting Relationships
- Breakdown of Communication
- Anxiety, Depression, Grief & Loss
- Lack of Intimacy
- Pre Marital Counselling
- Infertility & Trouble Conceiving
- Parenting Difficulties
- Affairs & Betrayals
- Life Transitions
- Separation & Divorce
I also have experience working with couples and individuals from different ethnic communities and welcome clients from cross-cultural, mixed race and immigrant backgrounds.
Format
I offer both onsite and online therapy. Telephone sessions are also available for individuals.
