What Client Says ?
Female , 25 years
I came across Twinkle's contact from a friend who was a client of hers, she was highly recommended. Twinkle has given me the space to learn & grow out of my habitual thoughts. Her sessions have helped me let go of my obsessive thoughts and that has improved the quality of my life. It helped me differentiate between reality & imagination, helped me stay grounded in the former. I wish to continue my progress with her.

I was looking for a good counsellor in my most difficult disease recovering phase. I found Ms. Twinkle luckily, who understood my mental health degradation & helped me amazingly that I came out of my lone phase so well. She is a fantastic counsellor, who understands the depth of mental health. I firmly recommend her for any psychological therapy. I am really very grateful to her who actually played an important role in turning around my life to normal

Ms. Twinkle Thakkar shows good expertise in individual-centered therapy. While suffering from acute stress-anxiety & confused thinking, she assisted in rationally deriving myself to mindful outcomes. She takes enough care & shows extreme patience in listening to my weekly mood, addresses my patterns & provides effective counseling by correcting the deep-seated negative thinking. She aided me to restore my emotional wellbeing. I would highly recommend to those in need of mental relaxation .

The sessions were very helpful in my life. I am back to leading a healthy life after getting help. I was going through the most unhealthy condition I have ever been when I first came for the sessions, due to anxiety and depression. The way of communication was so compassionate, I could open up about all the issues. Getting to know the reasons and explanations for the conditions I was going through, along with the mechanisms to control and cope helped me to change the way I saw and deal with the issues. With suggested interventions I could manage my anxiety. I never thought I could be this happy again, but I was helped to get there with proper guidance.
