counselling services facilitated by mental health professionals 

i'm dimple manoj melwani. i'm an RCI-registered and licensed clinical psychologist. ever since i was little, i've been fascinated by how our minds work. now, i'm turning that lifelong curiosity into my dream career! i've always wondered why everyone is ready to help a blind person cross the road or show kindness to someone suffering from a physical illness, but no one seems to stay kind and compassionate to those going through emotional struggles. maybe it's because we can't see the emotional pain one is experiencing. that's why i refer to mental health issues as the "invisible discomfort". i aspire to support individuals going through this invisible discomfort. it's been about 8 years of dreaming, working, studying, breaking down, trying, failing, and finally arriving here. as i've journeyed toward becoming a clinical psychologist, i've grown not only professionally but personally too. i work with various mental health-related issues, ranging from common mental illnesses to severe mental disorders and with clients across all ages- from children to adults and even our golden-oldies! when it comes to languages, i can be the most therapist-y in english, hindi, sindhi, and a bit of tamil too! i am passionate about working with caregivers of individuals with mental health concerns. i use an eclectic approach that is usually client-centric. as a clinician, i practice counselling, behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, brief therapy, and trauma-informed care. also, i'm a proud plant momma- sunflowers and money plants are my babies! and nothing gets me going like a good cup of coffee (seriously, it's like my magic potion!). oh, and don't even get me started on cooking and baking – talk about therapeutic! a little nugget of wisdom that i live by- "stay away from the bad vibes, go only where there are good vibes." and speaking of good vibes, at the end of every session, i always leave my clients with a sprinkle of ‘happy healing’!
