Vaishali Sharma

Why talk to me

Unity of body, mind and consciousness lies at the heart of my therapeutic practice. Radical acceptance, collaboration, compassion, and authenticity are some of the core values of my therapeutic presence. Resilience and strengths based approach privileges my clients to experience and utilize the inherent wisdom of their body and mind. At the heart of my work lies a safe and authentic relational presence that offers my clients an opportunity to heal attachment wounds and build relational safety as adults. Nurturing the authentic self of the client while working on developing healthier coping mechanisms is something I often chase with my clients in the therapy room.
