Ms. Shivanee Singhvi

Working as a CDA licensed Counselling Psychologist for over two years, exploring various arenas across different mental health clinics, in Dubai and India, Shivanee’s journey resumed in the world of psychology after successfully completing a rigorous two-year Master’s program in Counselling from Monash University, Australia. She was dedicated to providing a compassionate, safe and secure environment to individuals that led them to share their struggles and fears as they navigated through their dysfunctional thoughts and dysregulated emotions.

She holds diverse experience in working with adolescents and young adults hereby helping them manage conditions that include depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, identity crisis, personality disorders such as BPD (borderline personality disorder),  ADHD (attention and deficit disorder) and much more.

As part of the Employee Assistance programme of several organizations such as Etisalat, MEPRA, Khalifa University and many more, she has conducted webinars, discussing key topics like ‘back to school anxieties’, ‘the impact of trauma and loss’, ‘the importance of mental health at workplace,’ etc. She has also worked closely with several clients from the corporate sector helping them manage their daily life stresses cropping from respective work environments hereby leading to burnout. 

One specific area that holds significance and interest to her is to support clients dealing with trauma and loss. Life often presents profound moments of pain and grief, leaving emotional scars that can be difficult to heal. Whether an individual has experienced a traumatic event or is struggling with the loss of a loved one, she is dedicated to providing unwavering support and expert guidance. She believes in using an eclectic approach whereby CBT (cognitive behavioral therapeutic approach) integrated with ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) and DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) is imparted towards the sole requirements of each client, helping them navigate the complexities of trauma and loss and find resilience and hope amidst the darkness. Her counseling philosophy revolves around nurturing self-awareness and positivity. Through collaborative efforts, she explores coping mechanisms that can be seamlessly integrated into daily life. Her ultimate goal is to empower her clients to reclaim their sense of self, rebuild emotional well-being, and embark on a path towards a more fulfilling future
