Varsha Kalyankumar

My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, creating a therapeutic space that prioritises safety, collaboration, choice, and respect. I incorporate body-based practices where appropriate, recognising that emotions and trauma are experienced not only through thoughts, but also through the body. I work at a slow, needs-based pace, allowing therapy to unfold according to each client’s readiness rather than following a predetermined timeline. I believe meaningful change occurs when clients feel safe enough to engage with difficult experiences. I also draw on a narrative-based perspective, helping clients explore and reshape the stories they hold about themselves in ways that foster meaning, resilience, and growth.
