“I feel privileged and grateful for being able to help individuals heal and grow their emotional selves. I provide them a safe and non-judgemental space for all their intense, difficult, complicated feelings and thoughts.”
She also conducts webinars, and workshops for parents, teachers, and children to increase awareness about the importance of mental well-being and effective ways to do so.

Her approach to therapy

Nilom is Rogerian in her approach, that is she lets the client lead. She believes her clients have the potential to help themselves; she provides her skills and knowledge to aid them. There is no one style that suits all, and hence, she is flexible with her approach that is more suitable to the needs and personalities of her clients. She blends the cognitive approach into sessions when the client seems ready for it. Art as a medium has proven to be very effective in helping her children and adult clients express their complicated feelings. She allows creative mediums to enhance the process of healing. She is an active listener, empathetic, patient, and creative when helping her clients help themselves through the journey of self-work.
