Hello,
I’m Kashyapi, Counselling Psychologist at YourDOST.

Before we begin can you share your name/age/gender and occupation?

sessions. Is that okay?

share anything. You could also leave me a message if you don't see me online. Feel better and
take care!

Kindly wait. Let me check for Experts availability.

__ sexual wellness isn’t my area of expertise. I wouldn’t want to misguide you in anyway. I can
definitely suggest Experts who can help you with this regard. Would that be ok?

Male Experts- Naveen Kumar

Female Experts- Puroitree Majumdar, Mithra K, Jyotsna Sodhi

To book an appointment, go to the Experts section, type in my name “Blenita Lewis” in the
search bar and then click on “Appointments” and then choose the time slot as per your
convenience.

So shall I summarize what we discussed so far and then I will tell you how we can take this
forward.

If the client comes 20 minutes or less before your time ends:

This is to inform you that normally we have a 45 min session but as I will be logging out at 8 pm
we can only have a 30-35 minute session where we can explore the concern area and then
continue the discussion in our next session.

Or I can transfer you to another expert. What would you prefer?

Can you kindly tell me your concern area so that I can transfer you to the right expert?

Guilt: I wish I could have done this..../achieved this by now but I also know that I have been
working hard and I give myself credit for that. However sometimes, I have also made silly
mistakes which has no connection with my value/worth/capabilities and which proves only one
thing and that is: I am avulnerable human being and human bengs can make errors sometimes
but they also have the capability to acknowledge them and learn from them.....so i acknowledge
the mistake and choose to learn from it rather than ruminating over it.

Anxiety: Our emotional goal to deal with this is to convert anxiety to concern.
Moving from "What if" to "so what"
New possible thought: "I really want to achieve this.......... and whatever is humanly possible in
the available time, I'll do it but even if due to whatever reasons, i am not able to achieve this time,
its not the end of the world...andI  I'll have multiple other oppprtunities later also"

Frustration/anger on self or Self downing: Emotional goal: little sadness but functional
New possible thought: I wish that I would not have wasted the time/ I wish taht I would have
utilized the time but due to many unforeseen factors, even if i have wasted some time, I know
that I have worked v hard and even if this time the improvement was little, I acknowledge that
nobody can snatch away my previous learning from me and even if little...I have been moving in
forward direction only.

I'm really having problems with myself and how things affect me
Emotional break-ups cause similar pain as physical injury and hence it’s important we give it time
to heal. We would take rest if we are physically injured right? Similarly, healing from emotional
wounds also need rest and space. Here’s what you can do – take a jar and label it as time-out.
Now, whenever you have unpleasant/uncomfortable emotions, vent out all of those emotions on
a piece of paper and put it inside the jar. The trick is to let yourself process these emotions and
give yourself space to cope with it. As the more you tell yourself to stop thinking about it,
technically your thinking more about it. And so, this activity will help you not pile your emotions
and allow you to pour them out. And then gradually, the intensity of these emotions would
reduce. It’s okay to not be okay all the time. (if you dont want to use a jar, you can also note
things down in your phone/book)
