I’m an experienced Counseling Psychologist based in Mumbai. I’m here to listen and help you reach your highest potential.

I work with individuals, couples and families and provide a safe, engaging space for anyone experiencing emotional difficulties. At times, we experience a roller coaster of emotions that may consume us. When it gets too much, what often works is a non-judgmental approach from someone who not only listens patiently but also helps in chalking out a strategic and realistic way to deal with these challenges. I hold a Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology and the recent most feathers in my cap are completing the Advanced Practicum in RE-CBT (Rational Emotive-Cognitive Behaviourl Therapy) from the Albert Ellis Institute (AEI), New York, USA and the Advanced-Applied training in RE-CBT with children and adolescents from the same institute. In addition to my private practice at Doctor Centre in Kemps Corner, I have had the fulfilling experience of being a counsellor at a reputed South Mumbai school for many years where I looked into the emotional, social and academic development of children from ages 3 to 16. I believe that any problem, big or small, if not addressed, piles up and eventually gets completely out of hand. That is why my approach is empathetic, accepting and collaborative. Whether you are a child, teenager, or an adult, I respect your privacy and maintain confidentiality

In a world that often struggles to understand the depths of emotional pain, let's take a moment to reflect on the things that those battling with suicidal thoughts are tired of hearing. 💔

🚫 "Just snap out of it." - Mental health is not a light switch, and healing takes time.

🚫 "Think about all the good things in your life." - Depression can cloud even the brightest moments.

🚫 "You're just seeking attention." - Every cry for help is valid and deserves compassion.

🚫 "Others have it worse." - Pain is relative, and comparing suffering is unhelpful.

🚫 "You're being selfish." - Understanding the struggle is key to providing support.

Let's replace these hurtful phrases with empathy, kindness, and an open heart. 💙 Together, we can break the stigma surrounding mental health and be there for those who need it most🤝💪

Our dreams are like the whispers of our subconscious mind, weaving stories that often hold hidden meanings.

While interpretations can provide insights, remember that dream symbolism is personal and can differ for each individual. ✍🏻

PLEASE NOTE :
There is no scientific basis for dream interpretation and also that there is no evidence that interpreting dreams helps well-being💭

Maybe a friend mentioned that a particular song was “triggering” for her or your therapist has asked you to “identify your triggers”. But what exactly is a ‘trigger’?

A trigger is some stimuli or situation that is causing you to react strongly or experience strong emotions. Getting furious when you’re ignored or being afraid of losing control are examples of triggering situations.

Here are some things you can do to identify your triggers:

✔Take stock of how you’re feeling: Are you getting progressively angrier or extremely jealous? Is your heart beating faster or are you feeling dizzy or nauseous?

✔Try to identify what got you upset: What got you feeling this way? Was it because you felt rejected? Was it because of the way someone spoke to you or touched you?

✔Re-trace your steps: Think back to situations, interactions in the past, even as far back as your childhood, that evoked these same feelings. Did conflicts in the past make you fearful of losing control or loss? Were you bullied or belittled by people you looked up to?

The best way to handle triggering situations or experiences is to extricate yourself from them and focus on calming yourself. Don’t be angry with yourself for your strong emotional response; let the emotions flow and accept them.

For deeper healing, work with a therapist to address the root cause of your emotional triggers and identify unhealthy patterns you’re finding it hard to let go of. Over time, you will become more resilient to them.

Breakups feel awful and moving on can be really difficult. And that's why it can be challenging to deal with a friend or loved one who's going through a breakup.

Seeing someone we care about sad might make us uncomfortable, and so we might try to make them happy or even avoid them if their pain is too difficult to watch. But this isn't helpful for the person going through a breakup. They need your help and here's what you can do to show them you're there for them:

✔Expect them to fall apart: Instead of trying to make them happy, give them the space to grieve. Allow them to disappear for a bit, forget birthdays or break into tears in the middle of a conversation. Be kind when you see them unravelling; don't make them feel bad about it.

✔Expect them to do things they said they'd never do: Maybe they said they'd never stalk an ex or have a rebound. And then you see them doing just that. Grief is hard to bear and pushes a person to do things they'd never imagined doing.

✔Be there for them: Offer to take them to dinner or out for walks; check in with them frequently; make a meal or do their laundry if they're struggling to function. The best way to know how to help your friend is to simply ask the questions "What do you need?" or "How can I help you through this?"

✔Listen without criticism: When your friend talks about their ex or experiences in the relationship, avoid analysing what they are saying or criticising their point of view. Let them vent as this will help them process their emotions and heal.

✔Expect them to oscillate between strength and sadness: Healing doesn't have a timeline. So, expect your friend to be fine one day, and completely broken the next. No day is like the other and all you can do is let them know you care about them and are there for them when they need you.
