Patel Dhaniket

As a practicum student under the supervision of a Registered Psychologist, I am currently offering counselling services at a reduced rate. I am grateful for the opportunity to support individuals through their healing journey while continuing to grow in my own professional development.

My approach in therapy is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and respect for each person’s unique story. Hence, I work from a person-centered foundation, and tailor my approach to fit each individual’s needs, helping them navigate challenges and build meaningful change. In addition to my academic training, I bring several years of experience from Behavioural Therapy
supporting youth and adolescents in both one-on-one and group settings, with a focus on emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and social development.

My experience as a competitive athlete continues to shape my therapeutic perspective. Having faced both the mental and physical demands of high-level sport, I understand the challenges that can come with performance pressure, burnout, injury, and transitions. I offer a space where anyone can unpack these challenges, build mental skills, and reconnect with their passion and values. Whether it’s managing performance anxiety, finding balance, or working through setbacks, I’m passionate about helping clients navigate the psychological aspects of sport and competition, as well as the personal and emotional journeys that come with it.

In addition to English, I also offer services in Gujarati and Hindi, allowing me to better support clients from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds I recognize how personal and vulnerable the decision to begin therapy can be. It takes courage to
open up your inner world to someone new, and I don’t take that lightly. If we have the opportunity to work together, my commitment is to show up with patience, flexibility, respect, and a genuine investment in your goals, wherever you are in your process. I strive to meet each client with openness and curiosity, and to co-create a supportive space where growth, and healing can unfold naturally. I look forward to walking alongside you in this part of your journey and build meaningful connections!
