Ananya Roy, MA

Counseling Psychologist

I am Ananya Roy, a Counselling Psychologist with a master's in counselling psychology. I am here to guide you on a journey of self-discovery and healing. I provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, without judgment or criticism.

About Me

I offer a safe, supportive space for us to gently unpack your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Here, you are free to explore your inner world without judgment. This collaborative approach helps you make sense of what feels overwhelming, fostering clarity and personal growth. It is ideal for those ready to understand themselves more deeply and find a way forward.

Approach

Sessions slow the noise and create gentle clarity, guiding how we untangle patterns that leave you stuck. In Kolkata or online, in English, Bengali or Hindi/Urdu, I keep sessions paced to what feels manageable—short check-ins, deeper reflection, and practical steps between meetings. We address anxiety, burnout, relational hurt or adolescent challenges by mapping thoughts, trying small experiments and naming strengths as they emerge. This approach tends to help people who want steady, collaborative change and clearer choices moving forward.
