Psychologist
CurrentAs a psychologist under Project Oorja at Mpower. I provide counseling services to students in 17 schools across six BMC school buildings. My work involves supporting children from classes 1 to 7, catering to diverse linguistic backgrounds, including English, Marathi, Hindi, Urdu, and Telugu. Utilizing an eclectic approach to therapy, I tailor my interventions to meet the unique needs of each student, addressing various psychological and emotional issues such as anxiety, fear, stress, behavioral concerns, social anxiety, and emotional difficulties. I focus on helping students manage their worries, develop coping strategies, overcome irrational fears, improve their interpersonal skills, and regulate their emotions. My approach is holistic, integrating various therapeutic modalities to ensure I effectively meet the diverse needs of my students. I believe in creating a supportive environment where children feel comfortable sharing their experiences and challenges, empowering them to navigate their emotional landscapes. Through my work, I aim to foster resilience and emotional intelligence, equipping students with the tools they need to thrive both academically and personally.
