Shivani
Clinical Psychologist8 years of experienceI'm Shivani Marripati, an RCI-registered Clinical Psychologist and the founder of TruePath Mental Health Services. With over 8 years of experience, I provide evidence-based psychological therapy to adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, trauma, self-esteem issues, and life transitions.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual's unique needs. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and trauma-informed practices to help clients build practical coping skills, gain deeper self-awareness, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I believe therapy is more than symptom relief; it's a space to feel heard, understand yourself better, and develop the confidence to navigate life's challenges. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can heal, grow, and move toward a more fulfilling life.
I look forward to being a part of your mental health journey.
