“THE WAY WE TALK TO OUR CHILDREN BECOMES THEIR INNER VOICE.” -PEGGY O’MARA

Indeed, the way parents communicate with their children has an impact on their self-talk as well as on their self-esteem. The development of resilience and confidence is dependent on positive and supportive communication from care givers. And so, I consider it my mission to support parents to gain these skills, while resolving the behaviour issues and parenting challenges they seek help with.

I am Divyaa. As a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator, Counselling Psychologist and one who has specialized in the Science of Parenting and Child Psychology, combined with an experience of 6.5 years, I believe parenting is a skill that is gained and not instinctive. I have had rewarding experiences of witnessing positive changes with children as well as hearing success stories from their parents, after implementing the tools and methodology from my sessions.

Parenting is rewarding as well as challenging. Being a parent myself, I focus on being a reflective practitioner. So, during the course of counselling, while catering to specific parenting needs, I also cater to the individual needs of the parent.

Additionally, I also work with adolescents. I aim to hold a safe and supportive space for teens to explore their emotions and assist them to develop essential coping skills towards challenges starting from social and academic pressures to self-esteem and screen habits.

Every child is unique; and so is each family with their own unique strengths and capabilities. My empathetic and humanistic approach, blended with appropriate scientific tools, helps in connecting and guiding parents and teens through real-life challenges and I am committed to empower and foster healthy parent-child relationships.
