I am an internationally trained psychotherapist with over 6 years of therapy experience supporting children, adolescents, and young adults in India and the Gulf. I believe every person is inherently driven toward and has the capacity for growth when in the right environment. While working together collaboratively, you can expect a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space allowing for self-reflection and self-understanding. I will help you focus and build on your strengths and supports, look at different perspectives, learn skills, and use them to work on yourself and your overall mental health.

Equine Therapy can help individuals and families build confidence, self -efficiency, communication, trust, social skills, impulse control and learn healthy boundary setting. Horses are great therapists because they give immediate feedback. Research shows positive physical and psychological results from humans interacting with horses. These include, but are not limited to , decreased blood pressure and heart rate, lower levels of stress, reduced feelings of tension, anxiety, anger and hostility, as well as increased levels of beta-endorphins, and beneficial feelings of self -esteem, empowerment, patience and trust. Often clients experiencing anxiety and ocd have difficulty relating to other human beings, and will not accept closeness with another, but they will with horses. There is a bond that develops over time with equine - assisted therapy that is profound and natural . This bond helps with affection, assertiveness, confidence , empathy,self-control, responsibility, unconditional acceptance. This type of therapy is experiential and provides opportunities for metaphorical learning. Using metaphors , either in activities or discussion, is an effective technique for working with individuals. Non-verbal communication with a Horse helps clients better understand themselves and how they relate with others in the world. Equine-assisted therapy is psychodrama, which allows action to help heal the past, clarify the situation in the present, and help you envision a brighter future.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
Therapy is not meant to last forever, it is a tool to serve you, and the only way to know if the tool worked for you is with successful completion of your goals. I describe myself as your human GPS, sitting in the passengers' seat while you sit in the drivers seat, you tell me where you want to go and I will get you there! Despite all the challenges you may have been through, I firmly believe that you are your own expert and you already have all your own answers. Sometimes challenging experiences have clouded access to this internal knowing. I assist and empower your true essence in order for you to make life affirming decisions that align with your values, and ultimately live a wholehearted life. We surpass focusing on the issue that brought you in to therapy, to making and reaching life goals. It takes a lot of courage to begin this journey inside yourself. Together, we can understand the root cause, nurture it back to vitality & feel the ripple effect on all parts of your life.
I am also currently pursuing a PhD in Integrative Medicine, which gives me alternative healing practices to incorporate into your treatment if/as you wish. I breathe this work, it is my love and passion. It is my utmost pleasure and honor to work with you and help guide you to the wise inner wisdom that resides within every human, today!

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy Inc.
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
They say our greatest weakness lies in giving up! We have all been there. I decided that if life was going to be difficult, I would become its greatest “warrior” and teach others to do the same. Too often we use our armour to hide our inner selves, rather than see it as our strength which only comes from taking a risk, facing our fears, taking a step forward, and learning that every battle is won with wisdom. I am here to empower you to take that chance on yourself — your mind is a powerful force, but you are its master.
Through various forms of therapy, one can explore different perspectives, coping skills, and motivators to establish better relationships; self-esteem and self-direction; deal with complicated family or couple dynamics; face a significant crisis or transition; manage substance use or addiction; and collaboratively make cognitive and behavioral changes to better emotional, mental, and even physical health!

Dr. Joan Samuel-Dennis
Registered Psychotherapist
Most people come to therapy for 2 reasons: First, whether they are conscious of it or not, they feel unsafe. Second, this lack of safety, forces them to act in ways that create disharmony and conflict with the people they value and love the most.
At the Becoming Institute, we know SAFE therapy works by the 37 rule. A safe therapist knows that traumatic responses like depression, anxiety, PTSD, burnout, anger, and interpersonal conflict require a holistic and multi-phased approach that attends to your unique mind-body-spirit response to 3 significant moments in your life. In just 3 sessions, we will end your pain and ensure you feel safe again. In 7 sessions, we will give you the tools and the insights to bring every relationship into a stage of peace and harmony. Our commitment to your success is unwavering. We guarantee a 100% client success rate, or your therapy is on us.
We specialize in quickly resolving depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other traumatic responses. Our therapists have been trained a highly effective technique that combines a powerful forgiveness process with 8 other psycho-therapeutic modalities. Our 5-step process regulates your nervous system and creates a strong sense of safety and belonging.
This is what one of our client Naomi had to say. "From the very first session, we delved right in. In just 90 minutes of the Becoming Method, I gained more self-awareness than in 18 months of weekly therapy with four previous counsellors." If you're yearning for a happy, healthy life, take the first step now—reach out for a free 30-minute consultation. https:calendly.comjsdennis2000the-mindful-fitness-program
