Dr. Lavanya Tumkur Prasanna

Licensed Clinical Psychologist

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a PhD in clinical psychology and almost a decade’s experience of working with clients both in India, Sweden and USA. I am currently based in Gothenburg, Sweden. My inclination to working with clients from varied backgrounds and age groups is strongly influenced by my learnings from different experiences that I have had by working with clients across the globe.

I believe that one need not wait for things to reach a disturbed state to seek therapy. Rather, it is better to start working on realising one’s own abilities as early as one can, so as to be better equipped to deal with difficult situations.

Languages Known:

Swedish, English, Kannada and Hindi.
