About Me

I provide a focused, empathetic space for individuals facing relationship difficulties, stress, or anxiety. My three years' experience helps clients explore challenges and develop practical coping skills. We can work together using techniques like cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to build resilience. This approach supports a diverse international clientele seeking clarity in career and personal life.

Approach

I start by mapping your immediate concerns into clear, manageable steps and tailoring each session to build practical skills alongside insight. Sessions are structured and paced to your needs, offered online from Mumbai in English or Hindi, and often include focused reflection, brief experiments, or between-session exercises to try new responses. I use collaborative goal-setting and measurable check-ins, adjusting tools as you grow. This approach suits people navigating transitions, relationship strain, or work-related stress seeking steady, practical progress.
