Nidhi holds a Master’s degree in Psychology and a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling Psychology from Singapore. She works with adolescents, adults, couples and families, using a hybrid, integrative approach that draws from multiple psychotherapeutic modalities.

With over a decade of experience across diverse cultural systems and geographies, she has worked on issues related to mood regulation, trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, anger management, coping skills, grief & loss, workplace stress, relationship management, life transitions, and self-growth.

Her therapeutic process is flexible, agile, and client-centred. While she is foundationally trained in Rogerian and Psychodynamic approaches, she freely integrates cognitive and behavioural methods, including mindfulness-based practices and DBT-informed tools. Her sessions are tailored to each client’s unique mental framework as they navigate their paths toward healing, growth, and transformation.

Nidhi believes that life feels lighter when someone walks alongside you – reminding you to keep checking in with yourself, rethink or re-evaluate, and treat yourself compassionately while gently making space for yourself. She is a mother to two busy teenagers. In her free time, she enjoys writing and publishing personal essays on self-growth and transformative experiences. She is a resident mental health columnist for an online women’s magazine. Having grown up in Dubai, lived in India, and now calling Singapore home, she brings a rich Asian diaspora and immigrant
perspective to her therapeutic work. She speaks English, Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi.
