Pooja is a clinical psychologist who creates space for reflection without rushing you. She’s present, observant, and offers gentle scaffolding as your story unfolds - allowing you to lead while staying alongside to help make sense of what’s emerging. Her approach draws from Schema Therapy and cognitive work, helping you identify and work through patterns that keep showing up across relationships and situations. She’s skilled at taking tangled or scattered thoughts and bringing clarity, helping you move beyond the immediate concerns that bring you to therapy and begin understanding the deeper factors that may be shaping them. When you're ready, she supports you in exploring the foundations beneath anxiety or mood difficulties. Pooja works with anxiety, mood difficulties, and long-standing patterns that affect how people relate to themselves and others. Her work is thoughtful and structured - often beginning with improving day-to-day functioning, so there’s a stable foundation in place before moving into deeper emotional and interpersonal work. She takes a layered approach, moving at your pace and checking in regularly. She’s particularly effective for clients who value reflection and are open to exploring how current struggles may connect with earlier experiences. Pooja often uses metaphors and relatable examples to make complex ideas easier to understand and work with. If you’re looking for a therapist who can help you notice patterns clearly while offering patience and grounded support, Pooja might be a good fit.
