Ms Pooja Agarwal

Psychologist

Ms. Pooja Agarwal is a Counseling Psychologist and a Montessori trainer. She specializes in play therapy, learning disability and ADHD management, career counseling and behavior therapy.

About Me

I support individuals facing diverse challenges, from learning difficulties to career transitions. For younger clients, play therapy offers a gentle, expressive space to develop coping skills. I also provide practical strategies for managing ADHD or behavioural concerns. My approach to therapy, influenced by Montessori principles, offers patient, structured guidance. I aim to help you gain clarity and tools for lasting personal growth.

Approach

Using gentle structure influenced by Montessori thinking, I set clear short goals and let playful exploration or focused tasks reveal strengths and hurdles. Sessions move at a steady, predictable pace—sometimes hands-on with toys or worksheets, sometimes conversational—with takeaways we try between meetings and small, measurable steps to practice at home. I listen for learning patterns and tailor tasks so progress is visible rather than theoretical. This approach tends to suit families and adolescents seeking practical, steady support through transitions and learning challenges.
