About Me

I help adults and adolescents navigate life's complexities, blending evidence-based approaches like CBT with a lighthearted, compassionate touch. This creates a supportive and collaborative space where you can openly explore challenges. My aim is for you to feel truly heard and understood, progressing towards your goals with practical tools. Clients seeking a warm, direct, and effective path forward often find this approach a good fit.

Approach

Sessions are practical and down-to-earth, mixing gentle candor with steady structure to help you notice and shift unhelpful patterns. I work with people in Bangalore and online, in English or Hindi/Urdu, keeping sessions focused and paced to your needs. We set clear goals, practice short experiments between meetings, and use straightforward strategies to manage cravings, anger surges, phobic avoidance, or burnout while building skills for lasting change. Those wanting honest, actionable progress often feel most comfortable here.
