What I'm looking for
I’m a Psychologist and Learning and Development professional with 4+ years of experience designing and delivering child- and adolescent-centred learning experiences. With an MSc in Counselling Psychology, I translate child and adolescent developmental psychology into practical K-12 learning experiences (ages 5–17), spanning K-12 curriculum design, instructional design for life skills, and SEL programme delivery.
In my current role, I build sequenced grade-differentiated Life Skills curriculum (Grades 5–9), create production-ready facilitator manuals, student workbooks, session SOPs, and presentation decks, and lead monitoring and evaluation of branch-level trainers through coaching, observation feedback, and facilitation support. Previously, I mentored 1,500+ job-seeking students through a structured employability programme, delivered Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) across 10+ schools/colleges/community forums, and completed 500+ hours of one-on-one counselling using CBT, DBT, REBT, mindfulness, and related approaches—while adapting facilitation strategies to learner needs based on student outcome data.
