Ms Dinika Gandhi

Life Coach, Health/Wellness Coach
2 years of experience
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.

It takes great strength and courage to recognize the need for support and to prioritize mental health. By embracing counselling or coaching, you are choosing to invest in yourself, your growth, and your happiness. Hi, I’m Tara. I’m Irish residing in Europe, and have spent 15 years in India. I am currently working as a practitioner for psychological counselling and psychotherapy, as a therapeutic Life Coach, Mindfulness Trainer, & Enneagram Coach, as well as a Leadership Coach and Team Development Facilitator.

Whether you seek support for mental health concerns, navigating life transitions, or pursuing personal and professional goals, I am here to help you create a more balanced and purposeful life. I go beyond surface-level conversations. I delve into the core of your being, unraveling layers of experiences, beliefs, and emotions. I create a safe space for you to explore and embrace your authentic self. The warm and empathic environment I create allows the pain to unfold and the healing to begin. I am not just a listener; I am your partner in transformation. As you gain insights, I guide you in implementing practical strategies, fostering lasting change that resonates in every facet of your life. It’s not just about coping; it’s about thriving.

Seeking Therapy in India

As India grapples with the complexities of modern life, the need for holistic mental health support and emotional well-being has become paramount. Indian therapists seamlessly bring together mindfulness, intricately woven into their culture, and blend it with therapeutic interventions, making the experience of receiving therapy in India holistic and unique.

In the past few years, India has experienced a remarkable shift in its approach towards mental health, fostering a welcoming environment for those seeking professional support. Mental health professionals in India, hailing from prestigious institutions like NIMHANS and IHBAS, are actively championing therapy and destigmatizing the conversations around mental health. This has enabled individuals to address their challenges and actively pursue transformative growth - one therapy session at a time.

How to Choose the Right Therapist in India?

Determining the best therapist for yourself requires time and patience, as it depends on your personal needs and preferences. Listed below are a few steps that could help you make an informed decision and choose the best therapist in India:

  • Establish your needs

    Understand your goals and the outcome you wish to achieve through therapy. Read about the different areas of mental health and identify the concerns or symptoms you would want to address in therapy. This will help you find therapists who specialize in your areas of concern.

  • Check qualifications and experience

    Consider looking up the relevant educational qualifications (e.g., a Master's or M.Phil. degree in Psychology) and professional experience of different therapists. Check if they are registered with a professional body, such as the Indian Association of Clinical Psychologists (IACP) or the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI).

  • Review therapeutic approach

    Read about the different therapeutic interventions and choose a therapist who practices an approach that resonates with you.

  • Filter by your preferred language

    At DocVita, we have a wide network of professionals who speak 17 different languages. You can easily consult a therapist who speaks your native language, allowing you to express yourself freely and find success in therapy.

  • Consider Location, Availability, and Cost

    Factors like location, availability, and affordability must be taken into consideration. Additionally, you can also seek therapists who offer online sessions.

  • Prioritize your comfort

    Choose a therapist you feel comfortable with and who you believe can ease your therapeutic journey. It's important to feel a sense of trust and rapport with your therapist.

  • Look for therapists offering introductory calls

    DocVita offers 15-minute introductory calls to help set the foundation for future sessions. These can also help you decide whether or not a therapist is an ideal match for you.

It's important to remember that it may take a while to find a therapist who is a good match for your needs, and it's perfectly fine to switch to a different therapist if you feel that your current one isn't meeting your expectations. The primary objective is to locate a therapist who can offer you the support you require to attain your mental health objectives.
