Guraksha

I am a bi-lingual (Hindi and English) Licensed Clinician. I have a graduate degree in Clinical Psychology (Counseling Practices) from Roosevelt University, Illinois, USA and a diploma in Marriage, Couples and Family Counseling from IGNOU, New Delhi. I specialize in working with adolescents, parents, families, couples, and adults. I utilize various approaches to counseling such as, trauma-informed therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, family systems, and coping skills training to help clients improve their quality of life. I am passionate about helping others and my goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment. I also believe that building rapport is first and the most important step toward success and works in collaboration with clients to identify treatment goals to promote changes. I have experience working in a health department, hospitals, and university. My internship was at Dominican University where I worked with young adults that were struggling with phase of life issues such as starting college, struggling in classes or breakup/divorce and other mental health issues.
