Relationships
Relational healing through inner growth
Rooted Relationships is an approach to inner alchemy which helps free us up to be our whole selves in our relationships.
We do this through using our innate abilities, learning effective tools, and harnessing our desire to experience more pleasure in the life that unfolds around and within us.
We are born with the ability to feel love, joy, fear, sadness, anger, hurt, surprise, desire and disgust.
Our experience of a joyful life becomes possible when we can claim what we know to be true, respect others (they get to be who they are) and be ok with the perfection of our imperfections.
Rooted Relationships’ programs help you:
Cultivate compassion and curiosity
Open to love and connection
Undo patterns of shame and anxiety
We don’t need to spend years in therapy to have the tools to find more joy and satisfaction in our relationships.
Do you want a harmonious relationship without spending years in therapy?
Therapy is effective for healing childhood wounds, exploring the unconscious and having a caring witness. But it can be a long process. And many types of therapy don’t teach you the skills to bring your healing into your real life.
The truth is . . . .
Change happens in the HERE and NOW.
At Rooted Relationships, we work in the now,
while honoring the past that has shaped you.
This way of working is:
efficient
effective
and fun!
Find authentic connection
Rooted relationships are:
Grounded in truth and trust.
Open to growth and change.
Able to hold space for our primary emotions.
Based in interdependence.
Supportive of internal exploration and inquiry.
Willing to undergo discomfort for the sake of maturing.
Incorporating the needs of all involved.
Resilient and able to navigate the ebbs and flows that organically occur in life.
Growth and change for all
Many of us live in worry and anxiety.
Our minds play the same tapes over and over again, convincing us we are in danger. We put up our defenses to protect ourselves. But our relational wounding keeps us in suffering.
A mind and heart that are constantly seeking safety cannot let go to grow towards healing and liberation.
Nor can they settle into the full potential of a long-lasting, deeply satisfying relationship.
Mallika will help you break free from your patterns so you can enjoy the longevity of rooted love.

The short answer is now. Although I use my training in Clinical Psychology, I have expanded the frame and tools beyond therapy, based on my personal and professional observations of what is most effective for making change in our relationships.
There are two main reasons I have transitioned my practice to be a coaching practice.
Working as a coach allows me to work with people all over the world. Psychotherapy licenses are given by geographical territory and come with location parameters.
I find that coaching is both effective and satisfying for the ways that I view growth in relationship. Spending less time working with and analyzing the past and more time in the moment-to-moment experiences.

No. My writings are geared towards married couples because I specialize in helping to create long-lasting love. Many people do get married as part of their own process in looking for that type of relationship. However, it’s not required, by any means. In fact, getting these tools early in a relationship, before marriage, can help create the possibility of marriage for a couple.
I respect each couples choices in configuring the agreements or their relationahip however works for them. I do not have experience working with polyamory or open marriage arrangements. I would recommend finding someone who does.
