About Nidhi

Hello! I am Nidhi, an AASW-registered social worker (MSW) and founder of Skylight counselling, with over 10 years of professional experience working in the field of trauma. My specialisation is working with individuals who have experienced intimate partner violence and sexual trauma.

My approach integrates both top-down and bottom-up therapeutic processes, recognising that meaningful healing often involves working with both the mind and the body. Alongside talk therapy, and where appropriate, I incorporate somatic approaches that support greater body awareness, regulation, and connection.

My practice is grounded in extensive professional experience and specialised training in the field of trauma. As a certified Trauma-Informed Stabilisation Treatment (TIST) practitioner, I draw on principles from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and other evidence-based trauma-focused modalities.

Outside of my counselling work, I am a certified yoga and meditation facilitator and a lifelong student of both practices. I value the ways they cultivate presence, self-awareness, and connection, qualities that also inform my therapeutic work.
