"Non-judgmental, empathetic and confidential"
-Professional counseling service for children, adolescents and adults-
Hello, I'm Dr.Nilmi kotuwelle, a counseling psychologist, licensed addiction counselor (ICAP- treating substance use disorders), and International Yoga Coordinator of the Sri-Lanka Yoga Federation. With professional and hands-on experience I help clients when they experience trauma, severe life stressors, and various psychological issues to find healthy perceptions and strengthen their relationships, skills, and coping. As I trust no single approach is the right one for every unique individual to maintain the right balance between a healthy body and a healthy mind. I have been well-trained in a range of modalities including psychotherapies, mindfulness-relaxation techniques, Yoga, Hypnosis, and NLP practice. As a joint venture where knowledge, skills, and confidence are combined to create solutions. A good therapeutic relationship includes trust, authenticity, freedom, and positive outcomes. Drug addiction, pre-marital counseling, depression, anxiety, marriage and relationship issues, anger & school difficulties are some of the areas of my expertise. I strongly believe that everyone deserves affordable mental health services and asking for help is a sign of strength. I can communicate smoothly in both English and Sinhala.
Counseling
You are welcome! individual counseling, couple counseling and group counseling.
There are different ways to provide counseling. In my practice, I utilize a holistic and integrative approach working with all psychological issues. I provide psychotherapy, yoga and mindfulness techniques.
I have worked in a variety of settings with a wide range of issues such as stress, depression and post-natal depression, drug addiction, anxiety, panic, phobias, childhood abuse and neglect, relationship issues, family difficulties, bereavement and loss, obsessive compulsive disorders, low self-esteem and confidence, trauma, life changes difficulties, maternity issues, marriage difficulties, emotional abuse and others.
We will work together with whatever feels relevant and helpful to you, so that you can identify unhelpful behaviors, emotions and thinking. With increased awareness, comes the realization that you are no longer speaking into a void - that you have an opportunity and the capacity to resolve difficulties, enhance your sense of well-being and work towards having more fulfilling relationships. Together we can develop healthy coping strategies and behaviors that will help you to move forward and thrive in your life.
