Wise Mind

I complete 17 sessions with Dr Sharika as of today, and these 17 sessions have helped me learn, understand and regulate emotions and responses originating through my traumas and attachment system better. Therapy with Dr Sharika has been nothing short of a life changing experience for me. She is warm, welcoming and kind in her approach and helps me validate my emotions without judgement. She is driven towards helping growth. She mentioned this once that she loved plants because she loves witnessing things grow, and this value reflects in her process. It may be difficult to precisely word my progress and the changes I experienced through therapy, but I feel like a changed person within: a growing and progressive change.

Highly recommend her. I found her approach really comforting and out-giving. She quickly got what I was going through and she made it easy for me to open up and talk about things. She helped me in recognising the patterns I keep repeating and was pretty non-judgemental. Feels like talking to a good friend who provides you with valuable feedback alongwith insights to help you understand your own thoughts better. If you're at a place right now where you're not sure what you want out of therapy exactly but do realise you need some kind of help, I'd say try taking up a couple of sessions with her and you will have a better understanding of how you wanna proceed further.

I started working with Sharika at a time when I was feeling a great deal of mistrust towards therapy because of unhelpful past experiences with other professionals, but I was in great need of help and guidance but wasn't able to reach out or find the right doctor. Unlike the few doctors I tried connecting with after my bad experiences, Sharika was compassionate and patient right from the start before I even became a client of hers. She helped me rebuild my trust in therapy and actively guided me on healthy ways of navigating therapy in addition to the therapy itself. By helping me build this pillar, Sharika not only helped me understand my situation and struggles differently but helped me stick with the process. She is such a remarkable counselor, and I highly recommend working with her. Just don't bother her too much about extra readings or get nerdy like that, she won't comply :)

My previous therapist felt I need to consult an expert and put me on to Sharika . I relectantly agreed as I didn’t want to come out from the comfort zone and share the history all over again .

But after a few sessions I realised why this was required . Sharika helped me understand the complexity of the issue I was facing and made me realise a lot more that I couldn’t see or realise how it was damaging me .

She always remembered every detail of what I’d shared even if months had gone by .

I never felt like a client , I felt like I’m sharing things with a close friend who trusts me completely .

I’m in a very healthy space emotionally today and she has played a huge role on it . Ever grateful .
