About me
My workflow is informed by both professional training in psychology and my lived experience navigating cultures, identities, and transitions across India and Germany.
I’m particularly interested in how our early relationships, attachments, stories, religion, spirituality, and cultural backgrounds shape who we become. My sessions reflect this inclination, and I try to help clients explore these layers, understand emotional patterns, and walk toward a life that feels more authentic and grounded.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
With my experience as a psychologist in India as a starting point, I plan to make my sessions culturally informed and integrative.
My sessions are grounded in thoughtful, client-oriented, and relevant psychodynamic principles. Although my sessions are predominantly CBT-informed, I make space for a wide range of needs, demands, beliefs, and metaphors that my clients bring in.
My goal is to empower you to rediscover your inner resources, develop healthier emotional, cognitive, and relational patterns, and help you lead a fulfilling life.

I also had an opportunity to work at a psychiatric hospital where I worked with clients with a wide spectrum of difficulties, including psychosis, depression, mood disorders, OCD, and PTSD.
Education

I am doing my second masters in Psychology(Clinical Focused) in Berlin, which focuses more on the psychoanalytic principles.
