About TST
The Social Therapist (TST) strives to bring therapy-in-short to the one place we seem to spend most of our time - our virtual devices. This is a space to support change, growth, and enhance our understanding of ourselves and those around us. The initiative was launched with a mission to create a platform that helps us find some ways to enhance our self-awareness and self-love. The main focus of all therapists from team TST is to create a safe, non-judgemental space for the client to explore what they wish to work on and discover as well as strengthen the tools to cope with. We also work with organisations via consulting, trainings, and workshops to facilitate better mental health for all stakeholders and build better systems that are inclusive, and adaptive.

Simran (she/her) is a counselling psychologist with 3+ years of experience working alongside adolescents and adults. She believes that meaningful change becomes possible when we feel safe to be vulnerable and are met with curiosity, compassion and care. Grounded in a systemic-relational lens, she pays close attention to the ways our multiple identities, relationships, environment and choices interact to shape our mental health. Simran works with concerns such as anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, childhood trauma, unresolved grief, relationship concerns, stress, and personal growth. She aims to co-create a therapeutic space where clients feel seen, supported, and able to move at their own pace.
Simran is one of the best therapists that I have ever had. She is kind, non-judgmental and accepting. She is open to feedback and always respectful. I have seen a significant improvement in my mental health since starting my therapeutic relationship and I highly recommend her.
