Ms Charu Smriti

Counseling Psychologist

“My therapeutic philosophy is driven by the ethos of community and care. I believe that cultivating one's sense of beauty and pleasure has a direct impact on one's well-being, which further improves one's connection to oneself and others. My job as a counsellor is to facilitate your dialogue with yourself.”

About Me

My therapeutic philosophy centres on community and care. I believe cultivating your sense of beauty and pleasure directly impacts well-being, strengthening your connection to yourself and others. My role is to foster a deeper dialogue with yourself during our sessions. This unique focus helps those seeking a positive, self-affirming path to greater well-being and connection.

Approach

Rooted in care, I guide clients to notice small pleasures and how those moments quietly shift self-connection and relationships. In New Delhi I meet people in English or Hindi/Urdu and also work online, creating a steady, attuned space where pace is set by your comfort. Sessions tend to blend close listening, gentle exploration of bodily experience and personal narrative, and simple experiments to test new ways of relating between meetings. This approach suits those seeking a kinder, more embodied way to feel whole.
