Niroshika De Silva

My communication style

I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are—whether that means tears, silence, laughter, or uncertainty. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and supportive, while also being honest and clear when needed. I check in regularly and tailor our work to what feels most helpful. You won't be doing this alone.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey started when I watched a documentary about a child who experienced trauma and the psychologist who helped them feel safe again. I was deeply moved and knew I wanted to help people that way. I deepened my understanding by joining a research team focused on mental health outcomes for children in foster care.

My goals for you

Together, we'll clarify your goals—whether that's feeling less anxious, improving focus, building regulation skills, or parenting with more confidence. I check in regularly to keep therapy aligned with your evolving needs. I use reflection, skill-building, and feedback to help you track progress and stay motivated.

Our first session

We'll spend time getting to know each other and creating a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing. I'll ask about what brought you to therapy, your current challenges, and your goals. You can also ask questions about how therapy works. Together, we'll explore your strengths and challenges to build a foundation.
