FAQs

Who can access these services?

I welcome you to reach out, regardless of your culture, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. Phone or video sessions are available, but I cannot provide counselling services to US clients. Online trainings and workshops are available worldwide.

What do your university / corporate partnerships entail?

We have conducted a number of psychoeducation groups and wellbeing workshops for universities and corporate spaces, and all of these can be tailored to your organisation’s needs. Past topics include:

• The Science of Self Compassion

• Culturally Competent Leadership

• Preventing Burnout

• Understanding Motivation

Do you have any discounts?

Yes! If pricing is your main barrier, please message me and we will discuss alternatives and referrals. There is an automatic 20% discount for students. We also have a trainee programme with a lower cost option. Payments can be made by credit card (through the Payments tab above) or bank transfer.

What happens at the workshops?

Some of these are creative (Madhubani folk art, candle making, writing workshops), others are discussion based (talking about issues specific to our community, such as Asian parenting dynamics), and some are educational (guest speakers who are experts in their field). All of them involve meaningful conversations and a chance to make new connections!

What are your qualifications?

I am a licensed counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I have an MSc in Counselling and have conducted mental health research at Harvard University and the London School of Economics. I’ve worked with clients all over the world, including Singapore, Australia, India, the US, and the UK. I specialise in cultural-relational talk therapy, anxiety management, CBT, and person-centred counselling.
