Siddhant works with adult clients on mental health issues, existential crises, past exploration, emotional exploration, behavioral patterns,  somatic exploration, family bond exploration, emotional support, shadow exploration, internal parts reconciliation, problem-solving. He believes in radical sharing/honesty, radical acceptance, radical validation, energy-connection, providing a safe space and being a non-judgemental listener. Siddhant enjoys building long-term therapeutic relationships with clients subject to boundaries. He sees himself as a Healer and his specialization is in Humanistic & Existential Psychotherapy. Siddhant believes that therapy/healing needs to be integrated to be fully effective, comprising - talking (being understood), body (sensations-breathing) & energy healing; in other words - mind, body and soul. He prefers taking therapy sessions at his regular clinic (details at the bottom of the page) and he also takes online sessions.
