Bijal Shah, 40 Bibliotherapist
>>>
AVAILABLE FOR: Online/couples/ group/ personalised bibliotherapy sessions
CHARGES: Rs 3,700 to Rs 10,600
EMAIL: bijal@booktherapy.io
Shah, the founder of Book Therapy and author of the self-help book The Happiness Mindset, offers bibliotherapy sessions online to help clients deal with anxiety and trauma. Bibliotherapy is a subset of art therapy that involves using books to heal from mental health issues. Shah’s sessions use counselling and journaling along with mapping the person’s reading preferences and then curating appropriate reading lists. Bibliotherapy can also be used by those looking to process their inner emotions. “It’s really to feel that connection with the writer that creates a sense of safety…we find it easier to talk about our feelings through the voice of a character.”
RECOMMENDED BY: Dr Bhavna Uba, counselling psychologist and educator, “It is for those who intuitively know the power of literature and want to understand this field in depth. The resources list not only provides a long list of book recommendations, but also hand-holds the participants to discuss and work through the intervention journey with a client”.
