Simran Kewlani (she/her)

From her: “I hold a master's degree in Clinical Psychology. My understanding of human life and experience is influenced by various schools of thought, it is however heavily influenced by Psychodynamic and Psychoanalysis practices. In sessions, my aim is to support patients to identify sources of internal or external concerns in their lives. Psychodynamic and psychoanalytic practice focuses on gaining insight into the individual's mind and focuses to begin the healing process.

My practice also involves usage of postmodern approaches, feminist, and systemic lens to fully map out and understand each individual's unique experiences and needs. The aim of my work with patients is to encourage independence and a healthy relationship with our defense mechanisms that will stay with them for a long time. With regular supervision and training, I am learning to make my practice trauma informed, queer and neuro-affirmative”.
