About Me

As a Counseling Psychologist, I help individuals navigate the complexities of relationships, anxiety, and personal development. With three years' experience, I support clients facing breakups, family stress, or work and education pressures. We explore practical strategies for setting healthy boundaries and moving beyond people-pleasing. My approach offers a calm, collaborative space to gain clarity, build resilience, and move forward with confidence.

Approach

I invite you to notice your recurring patterns and test small, manageable changes between sessions, so learning happens in life, not just talk. Based in Delhi, I work in English and Hindi/Urdu and offer online appointments, pacing the work to your rhythm. Sessions blend insight, observations, and mindfulness practices to build self-trust and provide psychological resilience. Clients often feel that they have a safe, non-judgmental space where they are fully accepted and understood for who they are. With increased compassion for their past selves, they are able to move through life more confidently.
