Consonance - Services

Services Offered

The focus on emotional wellbeing is just as important as aligning your breath, and therapy is just about that - aligning your thoughts and emotions. The quest to finding that harmony is universal, but undefined. Therapy helps you define that harmony for yourself.

Individual therapy sessions

“The act of revealing oneself fully to another and still being accepted may be the major vehicle of therapeutic help.” - Irvin D. Yalom

The Approach

From where I come, I know that it might not be easy opening up to somebody new. But I believe that talking about it in a safe space can help and that’s what my approach is all about.
I offer a space of trust and authenticity where every part of you is held with respect. I believe that this encourages one to express freely and process their emotions in this non-judgemental environment.
Signing up for therapy can sometimes be an overwhelming experience. Sometimes, therapy involves talking about thoughts, feelings and experiences that have been painful. Because of this, the emotional risks include experiencing uncomfortable feelings and helplessness. However, most people who take this emotional risk, find that therapy is very helpful for them. Therapy has also been shown to have several benefits such as a significant reduction of feelings of distress, better relationships and the resolution of the specific issue that one has come with.

To support individuals going through emotional instability, confusion, postpartum depression, relationship concerns, Consonance offers:

Individual Therapy Session
Children/Adolescent & Adult counselling/Therapy
Parent support therapy sessions

The Process:

Knock-Knock!
I understand that this might be the hardest step but once you call/sms/whatsapp/email me, I will be there with you every step of the way.
Individual Counselling/Psychotherapy Session
A successful counselling/therapy is based on a good match between the therapist and the client. At the end of 2-3 sessions, you will get an idea of what the process might feel like and you and the therapist can mutually decide how to take it forward.
Duration of Sessions
Typically the sessions are 60 minutes long and couples sessions/parenting support therapy sessions are about 60-90 minutes long.
Confidentiality
The information shared by you during any session will be kept confidential and held with utmost respect, sensitivity and honor. Confidentiality may be broken only in cases where there appears to be a high-risk of self-harm or harm to others.
Cancellation Policy
Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours of notice are fully chargeable. As, I keep in mind that another client in need is deprived of a well-deserved slot. Sessions cancelled before 24 hours of notice are not charged.

Systemic Family Constellation - Group Therapy Workshop

“When we look at our parents, then we see behind them are their parents, and behind their parents are other parents and so on through many generations. The same life flows through all of them until it reaches us.” - Bert Hellinger

Many of us take on disruptive family patterns, illness, depression, stress etc, unconsciously as a way of belonging in the family. Family constellation is a group process that enables us to break and clear these unhealthy patterns, which keeps us rooted in suffering. Constellation work is a transgenerational healing process and has the power to shift generations of suffering and unhappiness, so that we can live a healthier, happier and fulfilled life.

Testimonials

“I first met you during 2017-18 in the Family Consellation Workshop conducted jointly by you and Priya and I immediately felt a bond and realised that it was your undivided attention and listening you extended towards me and everyone who participated. I used to wait for the workshops to be conducted by you and sometimes I couldn't make it, and your connection didn't get influenced by my not attending and the warmth was still the same as before. I wanted to get a personal session with you after understanding the deep impact and beautiful experience of Family Constellation and you agreed to help me with it. Your constant presence, acknowledgements, helping me see the layers and read between the lines of my life and patterns have helped me immensely. I am independently able to connect the dots now. My ability to hold my self tall has drastically improved and I'm now connecting with my family from a peaceful state of mind”

“I have been working with Subhashini for about 2 years now and her empathetic and non-judgmental approach has helped me open up and develop a trusting relationship. She is ethical, thoughtful, balanced yet direct and to the point. She has always created a safe space for me to feel vulnerable and start to understand myself and my behaviours. Sessions with her are always engaging and challenging, with the focus always being on the journey of self-discovery. She is open to trying different techniques to tackling an issue based on one’s comfort and responses to the suggested approach. I know myself better than ever before. I’m better equipped to deal with my anxiety and that has helped me in managing life issues much better now. No matter what the discussion, I have always left the session feeling more positive. I am deeply grateful to Subhashini for the impact she has had in my life and would highly recommend her without hesitation”

- Meera

“If I have a voice today and I’m strong enough to stand up for myself, I owe it all to Subhashini. I was completely broken and full of self-doubt with no self-confidence when I first met her at Enfold as my trainer and mentor. She has a gift in her ability to get beyond the surface issue and ask the right questions which moves you from above and beyond and even in thoughts where you couldn’t go”

- Sudeep Kaur

"I have known Subhashini from the last 2-3 years as my mentor AKA Guru for personal safety and sexuality education. She has been much more than just a teacher to me as she has a unique quality of making one think in various levels and perspectives instead of giving full baked solutions. This results in helping one develop their core skills on critical thinking. creative thinking, decision making, etc. She is great in connecting with her audience by coming to their level and empowering them by sharing the additional knowledge much required to bridge any gap. I really can't differentiate sometimes if she is my mentor or counsellor and I guess this is a gifted skill she has. Thank you"

- Ravina Rajan

“I was in a bad space and decided I needed professional help. I was skeptical but desperate before starting. After meeting u I decided that I liked you and so will continue although I had no idea what to expect. I kept showing up and did what I could. Fast forward 8 months, my relationships have improved, my emotions have calmed down, my mind has cleared up and my body is slowly destressing”

- Harshitha Krishnan

“I started therapy in the second half of 2020 without knowing what I was getting out of it. All I knew was, I needed help. And help came in the form of Subhashini. Not only did she make the whole process of letting it out easy, but she made me feel comfortable as well. She listened to me with patience and helped me gain perspective. She helped me cope in healthy ways through activities that helped me figure things out and which have now become a guiding light in my mental health journey. I have always been open and shared my story with people close to me, but this was different. Subhashini helped me observe my behaviour, eventually unlearn patterns and heal from past trauma. She offers me a free and non-judgemental space to be my authentic self. I can see the distinction between the person I was pre-therapy and post-therapy. I can say I am proud of my growth and none of that would have been possible without the anchor that kept me afloat. I couldn't be more grateful to have a therapist like Subhashini in my life”

- Mukund

“I have been receiving counseling sessions from Subhashini since 2020 May. My experience with Subhashini has been exceptional, I was able to connect with her from the start of our sessions. Subhashini is a solution provider, she has always worked on helping me find solutions with any issues/past trauma I have approached her with. She is a keen listener and provides space to share any topic which has made me extremely comfortable in discussing any topic under the sky, which I truly appreciate. Some of the solutions she has provided are around my anxiety issues, she has helped me tackle anxiety with few physical activities and it has worked for me. She has helped me find the root cause of several issues that I deal with and has tried to work on it and helped me overcome the past trauma. She has encouraged me to speak up on any situation that has been bothering me without her being judgemental which I believe is truly the most important quality in a counsellor/therapist. Working with Subhashini has helped me boost my self-esteem, self-confidence, Self-LOVE. She has worked in helping me understand my potential and I am grateful for that. The most important part of our Bi-weekly sessions is that I look forward to it each time!”
