Counselor

“Hello, Renuka Simoes is a quality-oriented practising counsellor. She has dealt with a diverse population. She is known for her composed and understanding nature and holds skills of a good listener, empathetic, and non-judgmental, with a good understanding of psychological principles.”

About Me

As a quality-oriented counsellor, I offer a composed and understanding presence, supporting a diverse range of individuals. I believe in creating a space where you feel truly heard, without judgment. Drawing on my understanding of psychological principles, I help you navigate your experiences with empathy. My aim is to provide a calm environment where we can explore your concerns, fostering clarity and a path forward for you.

Approach

I guide sessions at a gentle pace, helping you name what feels tangled and choosing small, practical steps we can try together. In Panjim and online, in English, sessions blend attentive listening with focused exercises and occasional advocacy between meetings when families or schools are involved. For adolescents navigating anger, body image shifts, or for carers facing dementia challenges, we track progress in bite-sized ways so change feels manageable. People seeking steady, collaborative support often find this approach helpful.
