About Nalina Viswanathan
About Nalina Viswanathan
I am Nalina Viswanathan, a qualified and compassionate psychotherapist whose approach is adapted to suit your individual needs, guiding you towards healing and personal growth.
The values on which my work is based are : compassion, curiosity, creativity, integrity, equality, connection and presence. I believe that we all are inherently enough. Sometimes the systems we live in make it really hard for us to remember the truth. Patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving set in early life often play out again and again, limiting our ability to be in the here and now. I think of myself as a mirror held in front of you with containment.
Healing as an ongoing process instead of a task to complete; I am passionate in providing therapy that promotes empowerment and healing. I support you in exploring, knowing and embracing the gifts and goodness of who you are, I believe in your inner wisdom and trust that guides you back to your inner self. I believe in asking more potent and right questions, which can lead you to your own answers. I believe that holding space can be enough to hear yourself more clearly and allows you to remember who you really are underneath the narratives that have been piled up, to identify, understand and reframe your life story.

Individual Therapy
(55 mins)
Individual therapy offers a safe space allowing you to explore your thoughts and feelings in
great depth. In the beginning of the session, I may lead you as an attempt to familiarise
yourself with therapy means, to get to know each other and to start building our
therapeutic relationship. As the sessions progress, you will take more and more active role
in your therapy. It is important to remember that everyone's journey is unique and thus
tailored by their own, unique needs. As your therapist, I will always be alongside you,
guiding you through, making sense of whatever you decide to bring in the session.
Couple therapy
(75 mins)
Couple therapy approach is designed to effectively address any kind of relationship
challenge, from conflict, anger or abuse of trust to communication and intimacy difficulties.
Whether I am working with one or both of you, my aim is to take you on a journey of
discovery that not only has the potential to transform your relationship but also to deepen
your understanding your own and your partners emotional worlds. If you are ready to put
in the work to heal your relationship you can emerge from your current struggles more
connected than ever. Lastly, whilst my focus is on the intimate relationship, the tools and
strategies I offer, are also useful for any kind of relationship dynamics. If you choose to
embark on this journey with me, a minimum of 4 sessions is recommended at the outset to
understand and to decide next steps. I usually begin working individually and then move to
working with the couple, unless, for any number of reasons it makes more sense to continue
working on an individual basis.
Group therapy
(90 mins)
Group therapy may be a unique experience of support and relatedness to facilitate
behavioural change. A realistic but safe environment is an equally important factor in group
therapy. On the other hand, group rules and a therapist’s presence creates an atmosphere
of freedom and trust. The goal is to aid each individual in restructuring major personality
dimension and practice new social skills develop positive attitudes and better interpersonal
skills. Group therapy may be the right choice if you want to experience a supportive space
as well as to experiment with possibilities and to gain by other’s perspectives.

I had a lot of anxiety and childhood trauma. I wanted to work on my issues but I couldn’t afford a regular therapist. The virtual therapeutic experience with Nalina was affordable, convenient, and effective. She listened to me, understood me, and guided me through my issues.
Above all, she created a safe space for me to be myself and accept my authentic self. I couldn't have asked for a better therapist. Thank you for your help.

My last year in therapy has been transformational. I grew up in 3 different countries. Nalina has been tactful in untying the myriad of cultural knots over my inner psyche. Nalina helped me feel through and process a lot of suppressed emotions. I felt like entire new colours were added to my emotional palette.

Embarking on virtual therapy with Nalina a year ago has been transformative. In just six months, it reshaped my life profoundly. Delving into emotions and self-discovery, her guidance offered clarity amidst life's chaos. It's akin to mental retraining, unlearning old patterns to uplift our existence. Navigating our inner world with her feels like a profound journey towards self-renewal and understanding. Thank you making me kinder towards myself and unleashing my true self.

I found Nalina through an online search following disappointing experiences with two therapists. Describing my journey with her is beyond words—it has been consistently eye-opening and profoundly therapeutic. Over the past five years, she has supported me through various life phases with unwavering grace and confidence, providing excellent tools to navigate ups and downs, even during periods when accessing therapy seemed challenging due to personal circumstances. Don't hesitate to reach out to her; your best life might just be on the other side of meeting her :)

Nalina has been a true lifesaver since 2018. After a disappointing experience with a counselor from London, we sought someone closer to home who could understand our cultural nuances. Nalina, our angel, emerged just in time to save our marriage. She doesn't rush for quick fixes; instead, she guides us with well-timed questions, allowing solutions to unfold from within. We feel blessed to have Nalina's ongoing support and eagerly anticipate her guidance in the years to come.
