So, what is exactly is Psychotherapy?It is the treatment of mental and emotional disorders through the use of psychological techniques designed to resolve problems with the goal of personality growth and behavior modification. It can range from simply helping a person walk through a difficult period in his/her life, to helping resolve a breakdown in communication between two people, to dealing with far more complex and chronic conditions like addiction or depression.Although it has a clinical foundation, therapy is much more than that -- it's a combination of science, philosophy and spirituality.I work with various types of emotional conditions that can crop up at different stages of one’s life like-Anxiety disordersEating disorders (eg Binging, bulimia, Aneroxia) Impulse control disorders (eg Anger Management)Mood disorders (eg Depression)Sexual disordersSubstance Related Disorders (eg Alcohol and Drugs)Pre-marital and Marriage CounsellingAdolescent counsellingParenting Self Help and Improvement Stress Stress at WorkLife Skills workshopsGroup TherapyFamily TherapyAlaokika Bharwani Consultant Psychotherapist BA Psychology,MA Psychology,PGDC(TISS)CBT Practitioner(Beck Institute,Pennsylvanis,USA)REBT Therapist (Ellis Institute ,New York,USA)Ex-Corporate Mental Health Consultant (Hindustan Unilever)By Appointment OnlyAddress401,Shree Prasad ,35th Road ,Bandra West.
