Ms Samhita Kumar

Counseling Psychologist

“A counselling psychologist with a cognitive and person centered approach who believes that everyone needs a safe and empathetic space to grow.”

About Me

This Counseling psychologist provides a warm, empathetic space essential for personal growth. Drawing on cognitive and person-centred approaches, they guide individuals to understand their thoughts and connect with inner strengths. Sessions are designed to be a secure environment for self-discovery. This approach particularly suits those ready to explore their experiences, helping clients gain clarity and build resilience, fostering a path towards a more fulfilling life.

Approach

Sessions move gently between exploring thought patterns and noticing what feels stuck, with close listening and practical reflections guiding the pace. I offer in-person work in Bengaluru and online in English, Hindi/Urdu and Bengali, keeping sessions focused and manageable. Together we track triggers, test unhelpful beliefs, try short experiments and use simple psychoeducation between meetings to shift responses around anger, body image, stress and relationships. People seeking clarity and steadier self-worth often find this collaborative, steady way of working helpful.
