Getting to know Rakhi Shingala

Hi there, I'm Rakhi! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Therapist (LCPC) and Board Certified Dance/Movement Therapist (BC-DMT) with more than 10 years of experience helping individuals harness their potential to move toward their desired goals, facilitating change and healing. My approach I use a client-centered approach, focusing on empathy, open-mindedness, and unconditional positive regard. I also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to improve insight, resilience, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. Additionally, I do psychosomatic work to strengthen the mind-body connection. My focus My experience includes working with clients of all ages who have anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I have worked with individuals to improve motivation, attention, and identify coping mechanisms to manage daily stressors. My communication style I encourage open communication and self-expression. Through active listening and unconditional positive regard, I provide an open space for clients to build trust, increase insight, and explore strengths and challenges. My journey to therapy As a child, I experienced trauma and anxiety. Growing up, mental health was never discussed, and I never had any support. As an adult, I decided to pursue education in psychology and become a mental health professional. I enjoyed learning about human behavior and was passionate about helping others dealing with mental health issues. I earned my Master’s in Movement Therapy and Counseling from Columbia College Chicago to further my skills, knowledge, and growth as a mental health professional. My goals for you I collaborate with clients to identify treatment goals and encourage open discussion to create attainable objectives. Goals are developed considering triggers, symptoms, unhealthy behavior patterns, and thought processes.
