Healing Conversations, Vasant Vihar

I have been taking therapies with Tejasvini for nearly a year. I had issues pertaining to coping with my life situations and chronic illness, and associated behavioural changes due to the unchanging situations. Since the initial sessions, she has greeted me with a vibrant smile, coming in to the session room with quite an energetic vibe and start.

She talked in a very encouraging way, and assured me that none of my thoughts were or invalid. This made me open up, and made me feel that I wouldn't be judged for any of my thoughts. Hence, I could express myself better, as howsoever underwhelmed I may feel of my thoughts, she never made me feel so, she made me feel it's alright, I expressed, and the question she would ask in return, that she described as the part of CBT, made me reconsider my thoughts. Therapy as a process is slow, and as a person I am quite impatient, angry and impulsive. There were times when I had often projected my anger of the situation of my life on her which isn't right and any person would react back badly, but she knew how to handle me. It's only possible when you are able to trust your psychologist the most. Because during the last year, I learnt that I had to be receptive to the feedbacks and suggestions they give you. Sometimes, I felt that some suggestions weren't alright at that moment but in retrospect, they were. She knew what she had in mind. For instance, I remember, I would keep asking her for sessions which were very close in duration. She wasn't concerned about increasing the number of sessions but didn't want me to be dependent on her. She wanted me to learn coping capabilities with her as a help. Sometimes, it doesn't makes sense to us at that time, but in retrospect, I think it made me better.

The most distinct qualities that I think that would set her apart would be that she gives her full attention during the session. Due to circumstances, I have been quite a distrustful person, and I was able to confide in her and develop trust in her. It's quintessential that there is trust between you and your therapist. I could get a good vibe from her. Not only this, after been taking therapies, I have come to believe that therapies aren't for people who are sick or mentally unwell- we all have some issues or struggles in life and therapy teaches skills that helps to manage day to day life better.; to become a stronger person and you start feeling that you aren't weak. You start believing that problems will exist and you might start helping others. I have been urging people in life to seek therapy because it is not something that they should take when things are out of control but learning to deal with a life which is supposed to be hard for all, I guess. I have developed a trust in Tejasvini as a therapist that she is excellent, and if my experience has helped me, I would definitely want that it be shared with others who might be helped as well. I would be enthusiastic to give her my highest recommendation. Thank you!

Tejasvini has the sensibilities of a seasoned therapist and the warmth of a friend. Sessions with her are incredibly comforting, and insightful at the same time. Having been to various therapists (about 5) before meeting Tejasvini, I can vouch for her unparalleled dedication towards her clients. She is not quick to jump to conclusions, doesn’t judge, and provides an actual safe space for me to express myself, which is especially important during history-taking sessions. Additionally, she is always willing to work through issues with me repeatedly; she believes that if you want to talk about an event/occurrence repeatedly, you probably do need to talk it out until it has less power over you. Her willingness to converse with me as a friend puts me at ease, and I look forward to all my therapy sessions, even if we’re doing heavy lifting/ discussing heavy topics. I can trust Tejasvini with everything that goes on in my head, positive or negative, and I know she’ll be there, paying careful attention, and making me aware of issues I need to work through. I’ve done emotional work with her for about a year now, and it’s been the most productive Clint-therapist relationship I’ve had.

I had been dealing with depression for a while. I had tried therapy before, and it hadn't worked for me. So, naturally I was hesitant about giving it another try, but I also realised I was at the lowest point in my life and I needed help.

When I first met Tejasvini, she made me feel comfortable, and the way she explained depression told me that she is extremely knowledgeable. It's not only natural, but also desirable for your therapist to know more about your psychological condition than you do. But it precisely her ability to not rub it in my face is what makes Tejasvini a fantastic therapist.

She never made me feel like my emotions are invalid. She offered me perspective on things in life, but never expected me to agree with her. Regardless of what would have been going on with other patients or her personal life, week after week she was there for me. Just knowing that somebody understands me, has the tools to help me, but most importantly is also willing to do everything that she can to help me changed my life.

Highly recommend.

I started taking therapies with Tejasvini Ma'am a few months ago for helping me to treat anxiety and other issues about coping with life situations.

It was the first time I was seeing someone for my mental health-related issues, so I was very nervous as it was tough to accept that I need help but she made me feel comfortable with her heartwarming advice and validated my feelings. I am extremely grateful that I met her.

The discussions I had with her gave me hope, comfort, and courage to move on with life, no matter what the circumstances. Her thoughtful suggestions taught me how to manage my anxiety without medication and because of her positive thoughts and advice, I'm now living a happy life with my family, friends, and loved ones that I didn't know I could have again. Her words of wisdom guided me to exactly what I needed in my life.

It was the best decision of my life to take sessions with Tejasvini ma'am and she is the best therapist anyone could have.

To all the people who are reading this, reach out to her if you think you need help. Highly recommended.
