Aarushi Tiku, MA (she/her)

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

I hold a Master's in Counselling Psychology from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (India). I am a member of the Ahmedabad Jungian Centre (AJC) and have completed advanced clinical training through the Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), UK, where I have studied psychotherapy using Jungian perspective. Deeply connected to nature and body wisdom, I am trained in Somatic Soul-based Trauma Training and Nature-based Therapy at the Somatic Nature Therapy Institute in Boulder, CO, and infuse that into my practice to foster healing through the natural world.

I am truly passionate about the mind-body-earth connection and I believe that when we learn to come back to our bodies with relative safety, we begin to relate to ourselves in the present moment- that is where the journey of healing initiates. I view therapy as a journey of self-discovery, moving through layers of human experience, where you can reconnect with the wisdom of your authentic being and unique gifts that life holds within you, assisting in your process of metamorphosis.

In addition to my work as a psychotherapist, I have completed 200 hours of Yoga Teacher Training with Meghan Currie, focusing on the science of breath and movement. I am deeply moved by and committed to creating a compassionate, collaborative space for you to explore your experiences, deepen your self-awareness, adopt attitudes aligning with your values, and cultivate lasting change. I am bilingual, fluent in both English and Hindi.

Outside my professional role, you can find me running and exploring natural landscapes, dancing and moving, playing with my dogs, nerd-ing on autobiographies, or making music.
