What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level clinical or counseling role in a collaborative, compassionate setting where I can apply assessment and counselling skills, grow through supervision, and support clients' mental health recovery.

I am a passionate and empathetic psychologist with academic grounding in clinical psychology and hands-on internship experience working with underprivileged children and clients assessed for emotional and behavioral concerns.

I completed an M.A. in Clinical Psychology and a B.A. (Hons) in Psychology, and I pursue continuing education to stay current with developments in the field.

During internships I coordinated teams, delivered educational support in community settings, and assessed clients' cognitive, emotional, and behavioral patterns to inform diagnosis and treatment planning.

I bring strong interpersonal skills, active listening, empathy, analytical thinking, and a commitment to providing personalised psychological support to individuals and communities in need.
