Our Approach
Our Story
"I believe that every individual has an innate capability for happiness and with self-awareness and few skills can reach that potential. A self-aware person values self, accepts responsibility and constantly unlearns & relearns to manage problems in life. I feel counselling is an aid in this transformation and would like to do my best in this process."
