Mrs Sayali Vartak

Addiction Counselor

“An empathetic and passionate mental health practitioner with electic style of therapy who has experience working with addicts and suicidal individuals. Strong believer and avid practitioner of mindfulness based cognitive therapy.”

About Me

I help individuals navigate the complexities of addiction and suicidal thoughts. My empathetic and eclectic approach creates a space where you can explore difficult feelings without judgment. Drawing on mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, I guide you to build practical tools for emotional regulation. This blend supports you in finding stability and developing lasting coping strategies, fostering a path towards resilience.

Approach

Sessions unfold as a steady, guided practice where we gently track urges, identify unhelpful thinking loops and bring mindful attention to intense moments so they lose their hold. I meet clients in Vasai and online, working in English, Hindi/Urdu or Marathi to keep the pace accessible and culturally grounded. In-session we use short experiments, breath-based grounding and practical homework to shift reactions into manageable choices; sessions are collaborative, paced to your comfort. This way suits adults facing addiction or overwhelming anxiety who want clear, usable tools.
