Srishti is deeply interested in working with individuals who have endured traumatic experiences and helps them develop healthy tools to navigate daily challenges and manage triggers. As a mental health practitioner, Srishti uses a trauma-informed lens to help clients gain a deeper understanding of their emotions and behavioural patterns through therapeutic approaches like Internal Family Systems and Gestalt Therapy.
