Greetings! I am Gayatri, a counsellor from Mumbai, currently based in Berlin, Germany. Coming from a multicultural background, I have long been fascinated by the complexity and diversity of human experience.  

‍

I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology with a clinical focus from Fergusson College, Pune, India.  After completing my training, I worked at a psychiatric hospital in Mumbai, where I gained experience supporting individuals, mostly adults, with a wide range of mental health concerns like anxiety, mood disturbances, psychosis, and other psychological challenges. I later worked as a Play Therapist and  Psychologist in multidisciplinary settings, collaborating closely with occupational therapists and physiotherapists. My clinical experience with children includes working with children between the ages of 3 and 14, supporting those with Autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, speech difficulties, and developmental delays.  

‍

On top of this experience, along with CBT Training for Anxiety, Depression, and Suicide Prevention at the Swasti Institute in association with the Beck Institute, my therapeutic work integrates evidence-based and solution-oriented approaches within a warm, reflective, and developmentally sensitive space. I aim to build for children a safe and supportive environment in which they can explore their inner world, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop resilience. 

‍

I am Indian and speak English, Hindi, and Marathi fluently, with a basic understanding of several other Indian languages. I value cultural sensitivity and strive to offer an inclusive therapeutic space that respects each individual’s unique background and lived experience.
