About Me

Awakened Living Counseling Center helps you uncover pathways to greater happiness. When life feels stuck, compassionate Counseling guides you towards profound transformation. Sessions offer a safe space to explore challenges and develop actionable strategies. We work collaboratively, helping you build a more fulfilling life by opening doors to new possibilities. It suits those seeking clarity and practical tools to embrace change, finding their way forward.

Approach

A way to happiness begins with gentle curiosity that shifts into practical, paced work so change feels tangible. In my Pune practice and online sessions (English, Hindi/Urdu, Marathi), we build a safe rhythm—grounding, focused reflection, brief experiments in session and small practices between meetings—to steady anxiety, process past hurts, and loosen repetitive patterns. Sessions move at your tempo, mixing mindfulness, relational focus, and concrete steps you can try between appointments. This approach often fits people who want steady, compassionate progress toward clearer choices.
