Welcome Apek, Registered Clinical Counsellor!

We are happy to introduce Apekchha (Apek) Sapkota, our newest Registered Clinical Counsellor!

Apek’s Journey

Apek’s journey into the world of counselling is both inspiring and deeply rooted in a genuine passion for understanding human behaviour. Her fascination with psychology began during her studies, where she was captivated by the complexities of different theories and case studies. This passion, coupled with her observations of mental health stigma across various communities, fueled her desire to offer support and guidance to those in need.

A Holistic, Inclusive, and Collaborative Approach

Apek’s approach to therapy is holistic, inclusive, and collaborative. She believes that creating a safe and comfortable environment is essential for meaningful and deep conversations. Her eclectic therapeutic style combines Person-Centered, Emotion-Focused, Gestalt, CBT, and Solution-Focused therapies, ensuring that each client receives personalized care tailored to their unique goals and needs. Whether you’re facing challenges like stress, anxiety, or life transitions, Apek’s diverse toolkit is designed to help you find the best path forward.

First Visit Expectations

In your first session with Apek, you can expect a thorough yet compassionate approach. She will guide you through the necessary documents, set clear expectations, and delve into your background and current concerns. Together, you’ll work on identifying your therapeutic goals, setting the stage for a supportive and effective therapeutic journey.

Apek shares,

“I too am human and have dealt with issues such as procrastination and stressful areas of life.”

These experiences help her empathize with her clients and approach therapy without judgment. She finds immense joy in building a strong rapport with her clients and celebrating their progress, no matter how small. Her belief in wellness as a journey towards balance in all areas of life drives her commitment to helping clients discover what works best for them.

Fun Facts

Outside of her professional life, Apek enjoys indulging in Nepali cuisine, dreaming of future travels to South Africa, and relaxing under the sun while chatting with friends or reading. Her warm and approachable nature makes her an excellent addition to our team, and we’re so very excited for you to experience her impact!
