After my baby, I thought I was supposed to feel only joy. Instead, I was exhausted, snapping at my husband, and crying in silence. In my sessions with Priya, she listened so patiently, never once making me feel judged. She helped me understand that what I was going through was real, not weakness. Together we explored why I felt like I was “failing” and how to shift that story. Priya encouraged me to accept my emotions instead of fighting them, and to see myself as a mother who was learning, not failing. That perspective gave me strength to ask for help, be kinder to myself, and slowly embrace motherhood with more resilience.

We were one step away from divorce. Every conversation was an argument. With Priya, it felt like someone finally slowed us down. She guided us to pause, listen, and notice what was actually underneath the anger. She never judged either of us; instead, she helped us see our patterns and why we kept hurting each other. What stood out was how she made us both feel heard equally, and then showed us small, real ways to rebuild trust. She taught us that accepting each other’s emotions didn’t mean giving in, but working towards common goals as partners. For the first time in years, we felt like a team again.

My mother and I never understood each other. Every call ended in frustration. In sessions with Priya, I could finally admit how much it hurt. She listened patiently and helped me see the reasons behind both my reactions and my mother’s. She encouraged me to embrace the emotions I had been carrying, instead of pushing them away. Priya helped me find words that expressed how I felt without attacking, and slowly I began to notice small changes in how we related. For the first time, I feel like there’s hope in this relationship—and that has lifted a huge weight off me.

I had so many thoughts, I couldn’t sleep. My anxiety was constant, and I felt like no one understood. In counselling, Priya created a safe space where I could just pour out everything without being interrupted or judged. She helped me notice the “why” behind my thoughts, and slowly untangle them one by one. She taught me how to pause, breathe, and use simple techniques to calm my racing mind. More than that, she helped me accept myself—that I wasn’t broken, just overwhelmed. Now, even when anxiety shows up, I know I have tools and resilience to face it instead of drowning.

I used to snap at the smallest things—my family was scared of me. With Priya, I began to understand where my anger really came from. She never shamed me for it; she listened with patience and helped me explore the triggers I had been ignoring for years. She showed me how anger was often covering deeper feelings I didn’t know how to express. We worked on ways to pause before reacting, to embrace my emotions without letting them control me, and to communicate my needs clearly. Slowly, I started feeling like a real version of myself again—still strong, but not destructive. My family notices the change, and so do I.

Someone gifted us a counselling session after our wedding. At first, we laughed—“Who gives therapy as a gift?” But it turned out to be the best thing we could have received. With Priya, we had honest conversations about things we didn’t even know would matter—family expectations, small habits that annoyed us, how to include and accept each other fully. She guided us to see that marriage isn’t about being perfect, but about being real with each other and growing together. Those early sessions gave us tools to communicate better, to accept differences, and to build a marriage with more understanding than conflict.
