About

I am a Master’s student in Applied Psychology with a focused interest in child psychology, developmental disorders, and therapeutic intervention. I am especially passionate about working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Learning Disabilities (LD), and supporting their emotional, behavioural, and developmental needs. I have completed hands-on internships at Tiny Todds Therapy Care and Shadithya, where I gained practical exposure to child assessment, behaviour modification techniques, therapy sessions, parental guidance, and case observation under professional supervision. These experiences helped me build a strong foundation in Behaviour Therapy and child-focused intervention strategies. Through my training, I have developed skills in observation, documentation, intervention planning, and working collaboratively with therapists and parents. I enjoy applying psychological concepts in real-world settings and making a meaningful difference in children’s lives. I am open to continuous learning and professional growth, and I aspire to build my career as a child therapist and mental health professional dedicated to early intervention, inclusive care, and long-term developmental support.
