Feeling overwhelmed by stress and yearning for balance? You're not alone. I’ve been there. My own journey in navigating life’s challenges in my personal and family life, as an elementary school educator and mother of two adult daughters, has given me a renewed appreciation for human resilience. Witnessing my own strength and growth throughout ups and downs has fueled my passion to guide others in unlocking their own inner resilience, inspiring me to pursue coaching. Family and relationships are at the core of my values and acts of service is my fulfilling love language. I always thought my emotions were holding me back, but through my journey I’ve learned that instead of viewing emotions as a weakness, embracing theseemotions is a beautiful feeling and learning to regulate them is an ongoing work in progress. I currently hold a dual certification as a Life, Health and Wellness coach from Health Coach Institute which is accredited by ICF (International Coach Federation) the only globally recognized independent program for coaches. I have received formal training in the “Habit Change” transformational coaching method where I have gained a deep understanding of the necessary core competencies needed to help clients reach their goals.
My personalized coaching equips you with practical strategies to overcome obstacles and face adversity with courage and optimism. As your coach, I'm passionate about sharing these insights and equipping you with practical tools to enhance your mental, emotional, and physical well-being, along with your relationships and family life.
My approach is rooted in compassion and personalization. We'll work together to cultivate mindfulness, navigate life's challenges with resilience, and build stronger, more meaningful relationships. Through open dialogue and a supportive environment, we'll identify your strengths, address challenges constructively, and build a foundation that fosters lasting personal growth and happiness. Join me in sparking the change in your life.

Ms Athira

Counselling Psychologist
2 years of experience
Therapy with me focuses on helping people grow, heal, and build resilience in a supportive, nonjudgmental space.  Hello! I'm Athira, an individual and couples therapist. My approach is integrative and centered on the unique needs of my clients. I use evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Trauma-Informed Care, and the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy.  In my journey as a therapist, I've discovered that embracing our humanity is the key to building genuine connections with clients. By being open about my challenges and limitations, I show clients that it's okay to be authentic and imperfect. This shared human experience forms the foundation of our relationship, allowing us to connect on a deeper level to cultivate meaningful change. In my experience of working with couples, my focus is on strengthening their relationships, improving communication, and navigating conflicts. I aim to help partners understand each other's perspectives, rebuild trust, and create meaningful connections that lead to lasting happiness. For individual clients, I provide support on their personal growth journeys. Whether they're dealing with anxiety, trauma, or life transitions, I help them explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build the resilience they need to thrive. With my clients, I focus on creating a personalized plan that supports their goals and fosters a collaborative and supportive therapeutic experience.

Ms Mouna Sridhar

Counselling Psychologist
4 years of experience
Hi! I'm Mouna, a Counselling Psychologist with an experience of facilitating 4000+ Counselling sessions. Having completed my Masters in Counselling Psychology, with additional training to work with couples and families, I have a strong academic background and I am keen on expanding my horizon as a therapist. In my practice, I work with a diverse range of concerns including grief, relationships (individuals/couples), attachment issues, dysfunctional family dynamics, parenting, trauma, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, academics, career, workplace challenges, self-esteem, emotional regulation, self-development. As a Relational therapist, I strongly believe an individual's relationship with their environment and people around them plays a key role in shaping one's daily experiences. Keeping this in mind, I strive to model a safe and supportive relationship in the therapeutic space. While I am rooted to viewing the individual's narratives through a Systemic lens, I adopt an eclectic approach in my practice. I proactively aim to hold a space that fosters self-awareness and empowers individuals to lead fulfilling lives. Personally, I am intrigued by the unique stories and vast life experiences each of us have. This pushes me to bring my own human-ness to the sessions, thus establishing a profound connection with the client in therapy. If you think this fits in with your needs, I invite you to begin therapy with me :)

About VIMHANS

In August 1981, due to a joint effort by the immediate family and well-wishers of Dr. Vidya Sagar, the father of Indian psychiatry, a society bearing the names of Dr. Vidya Sagar and Smt. Kaushalya Devi was established. It started when Dr. Vidya Sagar had left 40,000 rupees in his will just for this cause. And with only 20 beds, VIMHANS began offering its psychiatric and drug addiction services. It was not until 1987 when Shri Giani Zail Singh, the Indian President at that time, placed the hospital's cornerstone.

Since then, the road has been long and complicated, but it has also been rewarded with numerous successes. It has expanded from its primary focus on mental health into a multispecialty institute with five central departments. With more than a hundred beds and a functioning daycare rehabilitation center, VIMHANS is still a family-run institution. To provide accessible yet high-quality medical consultations, the organization also sponsors community outreach centers in Haryana and Delhi.

VIMHANS is the only non-government organization that operates an in-patient facility for people with mental illness. Additionally, VIMHANS holds free medical camps in a variety of specialties in various slums and communities in the National Capital Region.
