Namaskara! I have a Masters Degree in Social Work and specialized in Medical and Psychiatry from Acharya Institute of Management and Sciences affiliated with Bangalore University. With over 10 years of experience in psychiatric rehabilitation counseling, I've had the privilege of walking alongside individuals facing the challenges of Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder, OCD, and Depression. I've witnessed firsthand the resilience of individuals and the crucial role of family support.
I understand the emotional toll mental illness takes on both the individual and their loved ones. With years of experience in conducting sessions for Families affected by Psychosis, what I have learnt is that the health of the Caregiver is equally important or more important than of the care receiver. What I have also learnt over the years is that, as a therapist especially dealing with Psychiatric clients/ caregivers, one needs to have a lot of patience, perseverance and follow up to maintain the wellbeing of a client.
Whether you're seeking support for yourself or a loved one, I'm here to listen, understand, and guide you towards a brighter future. My approach combines expertise in psychiatric rehabilitation with a deep understanding of the human experience. Together, we can develop strategies to manage symptoms, build resilience and improve your overall well-being.
Mental illness often manifests in negative symptoms like social withdrawal and a disruption of daily routines. I understand the difficulties you and your loved ones encounter when facing these challenges. That's why I'm committed to offering compassionate and effective counseling. I believe that recovery is a journey and whether you're dealing with the ups and downs of mood disorders, the isolation of social withdrawal, or the stress of caring for someone with a mental illness, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
