WORK PROFILE
The impetus of studying psychology came to me from my 2 wonderful and inquisitive children. Currently I am pursuing a PHD (psychology) from Sabarmati University in Ahmedabad,Gujarat. Apart from being a prominent speaker and researcher in Child and Adolescent Psychology at various national and international platforms, I am also working as a ‘Behavioural Counsellor’ and ‘Adolescent Trainer’ with Anand Niketan, Satellite – A premier school in Ahmedabad. I specialize in Positive Psychology, CBT and Counselling techniques in addition to ancient arts like Yoga (Concentration Techniques), Reiki and Self- Hypnosis (EFT). These techniques help children delve into their inner self and find their own reservoirs of strength and concentration apart from exposing them to an alternative way of realizing their potential in the future. While the ills that plague society are a legion, it’s important for us to choose specific targets to fight against. Attacking all the ills at the same time may be too ambitious resulting in no real change. Therefore I, choose the route of Children awareness. I believe that Children – the window to the future, needs to be given the self-confidence and ability to look beyond school books and academic curriculum to a world that provides them awareness of their wider surroundings, thereby contributing to overall growth that eventually results in more socially aware citizens. Each of us has to contribute back to Society. Mine is therefore a journey to own up to our responsibilities towards a larger cause - A cause that we believe has the capacity to change society in small ways leading to a better, more aware future. My dream is to reach the apex of my chosen field of study so as to benefit adolescents and youngsters in the most formative years of their lives.
