I hold deep respect for men who courageously take the pivotal step toward their emotional growth. Therapy is a proactive choice that represents your commitment to your own wellness. My primary goal here is to help you navigate the complexity of your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, patterns and equip you with tools to thrive in your relationship, workplace, and all your varied roles.
Our sessions will be tailored to meet your unique needs and goals as I draw strategies from a range of therapeutic frameworks like CBT, DBT, EFT, and IFS. In the past, I have worked with individuals dealing with concerns like depression, anxiety, ADHD, self-criticism, perfectionism, burnout, family discord, relationship intricacies, and end of relationships.

Mr. Krish Dhir
Feeling stuck in a rut of boredom and disinterest? Struggling to find motivation and energy? You’re not alone. At Krish Dhir Social Work and Psychotherapy Services, we understand the challenges men face when it comes to maintaining their mental well-being. Whether it’s work-related stress, global concerns, or just the monotony of daily life, we’re here to help.
If you notice that a loved one is showing any of the typical depression signs like oversleeping or not sleeping, tension, or uncontrollable anger (in the case of men) you should address the topic and let the person know that you care about them and that you are ready to listen when they are ready to talk.
