About Ms. Keziah Verghese

Trauma-Focused | Borderline Specialist | Counselling Psychologist

Ms. Keziah Verghese is a trauma-focused counselling psychologist who supports individuals working through deep emotional pain, relational wounds, and struggles with self-identity. Her work is especially known for helping those who’ve experienced adverse childhood experiences, borderline personality patterns, complex trauma, and attachment injuries, clients who often feel “too much,” “too sensitive,” or misunderstood by the world.

At Coach For Mind, Keziah offers a warm, grounded, and non-judgmental space where healing unfolds gently. She helps clients process trauma without re-traumatization, always honoring their pace and nervous system readiness.

Her approach is integrative and body-aware, drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, EMDR, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Nature Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Practices.
Each session is attuned to where the client’s mind and body are, helping them find balance, safety, and a sense of inner connection.

She works extensively with complex trauma, childhood neglect, emotional dysregulation, dissociation, relationship instability, sexual abuse, and mood disturbances. Her practice also includes support for suicidal ideation, self-harm recovery, and dysfunctional family dynamics, helping clients rebuild safety and trust both within themselves and in their relationships.

Her sessions are known to be deeply experiential and quietly transformative. Clients often describe Keziah as calm, attuned, and deeply understanding, someone who helps them feel seen, safe, and gently guided through their healing journey.

Therapy Style (in her words)

As a trauma-focused therapist, I am dedicated to creating a safe, compassionate space where you can explore, understand, and heal at your own pace.

My work is about helping you reconnect with your inner strength and learn to live fully in the present rather than feeling bound by the past.

Healing isn’t about erasing what happened, it’s about reclaiming who you are beneath the hurt.”
