Vishakha

Ms Vishakha Gulgule

Psychotherapist

“A trained and experienced consulting psychologist determined to help individuals to generate awareness and understanding of their patterns, adopt healthy coping and live a healthier lifestyle.”

About Me

I help individuals understand their unique patterns. In our sessions, we explore how these behaviours impact your daily life and well-being. My aim is to guide you in developing healthier coping strategies. This supports you to make conscious choices and build a more fulfilling lifestyle. Together, we foster lasting change.

Approach

We begin by noticing recurring reactions and how they shape moments that matter, then gently test new ways of responding so awareness leads to choice. Sessions in Pune or online, in English, Hindi/Urdu or Marathi, are practical and collaborative, paced to what feels manageable. Work blends conversational reflection, brief experiential exercises and small real‑world experiments; between sessions I invite short tasks to practice skills and track shifts. This steady, hands‑on way of working suits people navigating transitions, stress or doubts about self and relationships.
