Counseling Psychologist

“A queer-affirmative counselling psychologist with 5 years of experience in working with individuals from ages 18 to 60, to address concerns including, but not limited to anxiety, mood disorders, self-esteem, relationships, conflict management, emotion regulation and more.”

About Me

As a queer-affirmative Counseling psychologist, I support adults aged 18-60. I help individuals navigate concerns like anxiety, mood disorders, and relationship challenges. With five years of experience, I provide a safe, understanding space. Here, you can explore self-esteem and develop emotion regulation skills. My approach helps address conflict effectively, fostering personal growth. Your identity is affirmed, helping you move towards greater well-being.

Approach

Building on that support, sessions feel steady and collaborative, attending to immediate feelings while moving toward practical skills between meetings. From my Mumbai base I offer English sessions in person and online, pacing work to your energy with short grounding practices, focused reflection and tasks that fit your routine. I draw on mindful awareness, emotion-regulation exercises and clear problem-mapping to reduce stress, spot patterns and try small behavioural shifts. People juggling work pressure, relationships or overwhelm often find this practical, steady way of working helpful.
