About me :

I am a Holistic Occupational therapist and founder of Khushi therapy center based in Mumbai- India.

I believe that the mind and body are connected and see challenges from a whole-person perspective. I combine complementary therapies and integral health techniques in my practice of Occupational therapy to help my clients at a deeper level.

I believe balance is an integral part of wellness and that alignment of body mind and spirit is the key to helping ourselves and our kids.

I work with neurodiverse kids and their families for the last 19 years.

My strength lies in blending my role as a parent and a therapist to offer the best practical strategies to support families who come to me.
