Testimonials from Clients
Feedback from an anonymous client:
“Devika started seeing me about a year and a half ago.
I have found her to be an attentive sensitive receptive and perceptive therapist.
I experience her as very readily attuned to my feelings...and very accepting of what I bring to each session, as well as to how I do this. It has been a surprise to me and very helpful that I have been able for instance...to talk, play, be silent, confused, hesitant, overwhelmed, anxious, despairing, at times feeling better, hopeful - at times worse…and in being able to do so, and feeling allowed to go through all these states, it has been freeing to realise that I have not had my fear confirmed…that of having to be a certain way...do a certain thing...
I feel there has been and there is space for me to take steps that are often scary. I am slowly discovering that she is genuinely accepting of my going backwards after having taking a step forwards, so that I am allowed to have "second thoughts", retrace my steps....And that she is willing at all times to let me set the agenda, i.e. to do and say what I need - and lately what I want...and what I feel like doing or saying - or being...
Her attunement to and feeling for the arts - music, writing, visual arts, and for artistic expression means that I have felt, and feel, free and allowed - besides verbally - to communicate with her through those means also. This is an attribute of Devika's which I find particularly valuable and which for me, is precious and very important.”
