Janak is a British Mental Health Counsellor and Psychologist presently based in HCMC. He holds an MSc in Psychology, and is a Member of the British Psychological Society (MBPsS). Originally from England, he started as a community mental health professional in London in 2000, working with clients with severe and enduring issues such as schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. In his current practice his clients come to see him for many different reasons, such as depression and anxiety, suicidal feelings, trauma, finding meaning and purpose in life, cultural adjustment, or simply ‘needing someone to talk to’.

Janak's approach is not to direct or advise his clients, but rather to help them to discover the possibilities available to them in their lives, and support them to find a more contented way to be themselves through making their own personal choices. He views his role as a facilitator, creating a safe space in which clients can feel freer to explore the issues that are troubling them, as well as helping them to process their situations through highlighting problematic ways of perceiving and thinking about themselves, their relationships to others, and the world. Through this new awareness and self-empowerment, he attempts to help them find their own personalised solutions or ways of moving forward.

Mental Health Open Talk is a biweekly roundtable initiative by Social ChangeMakers Network to offer the public a safe space to talk mental health and discuss solutions, with suggestions and guidance from various mental health professionals on different topic each month.
SCMN is calling for life-coaches, psychologists and therapists who would like to join this pro bono initiative and offer their time and expertise to give back to the community.
