Clinical Approach

Ikjyot's approach aligns with attachment-focused, somatic, experiential and trauma-informed evidence based practice. Ikjyot values connection and authenticity when working with people. Individuals who are interested in doing deeper work and are open to self-exploration are a good fit with Ikjyot's working style. 

Even if you are new to counselling, Ikjyot will guide and support you to work through intense emotions and challenging life circumstances so that they become more manageable, and you feel confident in your abilities to navigate emotional intensities.

Working with the root cause
