Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is more than just a virus; it's a challenge that many individuals face in their lives. It specifically targets CD4 cells, which play a vital role in maintaining a healthy immune system. When HIV is left untreated, it can progress to AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome), a condition that severely weakens the immune system, leaving the body susceptible to various infections and illnesses.
The reality of living with HIV can be daunting, especially considering its modes of transmission—primarily through unprotected sexual contact, sharing needles, or from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding. However, it's important to remember that with today's advancements in medical care, particularly with antiretroviral therapy (ART), many people living with HIV can lead long and fulfilling lives.
Early diagnosis and consistent treatment can keep the virus under control, preventing the progression to AIDS and significantly lowering the risk of transmission to others. This journey, while challenging, is made easier through education and understanding, which are crucial in breaking down the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS. By fostering open conversations about this virus, we can promote safe practices, encourage testing, and support those affected, helping to create a more compassionate and informed community.

You don't have to walk this alone. Whether you've lost someone to death, a relationship that ended, a future that won't happen, or a version of yourself you'll never get back, I'll sit with you in the pain without rushing you toward acceptance or closure. Together, we'll honor what you've lost, make space for the complex emotions grief brings, and gently help you rediscover who you are now. Healing doesn't mean forgetting—it means learning to carry loss without it crushing you. I'll support every step forward.
