I founded MindFrames as a wellness initiative to enthuse, educate and empower individuals and communities to live emotionally healthy and meaningful lives. The founding idea was, to switch focus from illness to wellness. Hence mindfulness based assessments and management of emotional, behavioral and lifestyle disorders using face-to-face consultations as well as technology assisted means. Over two decades I've liaised with diverse medical specialties, and worked across different cultures with holistic healing options for all ages and stages (children, adults and geriatric age categories). An expert in diverse assessment and therapeutic methodologies, I focus on healing problems from the root. Hence the detailed sessions that sometimes go over several hours and continuous engagement on a daily basis in order to offer handholding support and guidance; for patients enduring anxiety, depression, loss, rejection, personality problems, addiction, behavior choice disturbances, or other forms and level of psychological pain.I manage the MindFrames website, wellness blog, and Instagram.

At a critical time in the wake of COVID-19, Human Resources and Senior Management at Dynamatic emphasized the importance of wellness at the workplace. The CEO and the board personally partake in wellness program conceptualization and with their constant support and participation I've formulated and delivered wellness measurements, webinars, seminars, small group discussions with department heads, 360 reviews with feedback, leadership mentoring sessions, on site wellness camps for over 1000 employees (and counting), as well as one-on-one guidance and therapy sessions for specific employees who seek it. The role and goal as a holistic wellness professional to build emotion management solutions across the employee life-cycle to ensure that the right people with the right skills thrive in the organization, stay resilient and happy, and take themselves and the organization to the summit of their potential.
