What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an Assistant Professor role where I can teach psychology with academic excellence, support student development, and apply evidence-based assessment and interventions. I want to grow through research and learning-focused student engagement.

I’m an MSc Clinical Psychology candidate with training in psychological assessment, counselling, behavioural interventions, and research methodology. Through my hospital internship, I strengthened my clinical reasoning through case history intakes, Mental Status Examinations (MSE), diagnostic formulation under supervision, and standardized assessments like BKT, MMPI, and MCMI.

I also have hands-on experience delivering behaviour-focused support for children and adolescents, applying Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and behaviour modification while collaborating with supervisors, educators, and families. My research explores “AI dependence and cognitive debt” among Indian university students, and I’m seeking an Assistant Professor position where I can contribute to psychology education, academic excellence, and student development.
