Zenisha S - Counselling Psychologist

Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to get to know more about me. I have had the privilege of working with both children and adults for the past 5 years.My professional journey has been inspired by a profound passion for mental health, learning and the captivating narratives that define us. Within the therapeutic space, my mission is to create a nurturing, safe, collaborative environment where clients can explore their unique journeys, supported through life's challenges, fostering transformation, healing, and empowerment. Having navigated diverse landscapes, from vibrant school communities to engaging with adults online and offline in wellness spaces, I offer trauma-informed, holistic support. Drawing from methodologies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), mindfulness, positive psychology, expressive arts therapy, and humanistic psychology, my approach is tailored to individual needs. I am currently interested in pursuing somatic based trauma processing practices. Beyond my professional calling, I find solace in nature's embrace, exploring new corners of the world, engaging my senses through good food, stories, experiences or art. I look forward to the opportunity to connect, support, grow with and hear your unique story. Educational Background: M.A. in Developmental Psychology from Columbia University, New York, B.A. in psychology honours and a P.G. Diploma in Life Skills and Personal Safety Education. Certifications:_counselling skills, Cognitive behavioural therapy(CBT), trauma informed psychological interventions, and Emotional Freedom technique(EFT).
