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.

I’m here to walk with you, offering tools to confront wounds, while nurturing the parts of you that have long been neglected. As we work together, I want you to remember: "Healing is not a destination; it’s a journey back to yourself." Let’s take that journey—one brave step at a time—until the weight you carry feels a little lighter and the path ahead feels a little brighter.

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.
