Counseling Psychologist

“An experienced counsellor with expertise in providing therapy tailored for Indian women abroad. With a background in neuroscience, my goal is to blend scientific knowledge with empathy, ensuring that Indian women receive steadfast support for their well-being.”

About Me

I am a licensed counseling psychologist based in Nieuw West, North Holland, Netherlands. I work with people facing life transitions, anxiety, mood disorders, or abuse. I use ACT, trauma counseling, mediation, and mindfulness to build practical coping skills.

Approach

At Boss Naari, we've worked tirelessly to build a framework tailored specifically for Indians, bridging a crucial knowledge gap in psychology. Traditional therapeutic approaches often overlook the deep influence of Indian culture and family systems. Grounded in neuroscience, our approach integrates evidence-based tools with a profound understanding of the societal expectations Indians face. Whether you're balancing career ambitions with traditional caretaker roles or seeking to break free from limiting patterns, we are here to provide compassionate, culturally attuned guidance that empowers you to thrive.
