Ms Anisa Padaria

Psychological Counselor

“A dedicated altruist to the core, I am a trained and certified counsellor, relationship expert, blogger, public speaker, an author with over a decade of experience. Have been instrumental in shaping over 2000 individuals, including students, young adults, professionals, businessmen, homemakers and the elderly.”

About Me

I bring over a decade of experience as a counsellor and relationship expert. My passion is supporting individuals from all walks of life, from students to homemakers. I aim to create a truly collaborative space where you feel heard and understood. We can explore your unique challenges, fostering personal growth and clearer communication. My goal is to help you find practical ways forward, whatever your situation.

Approach

Rooted in a commitment to change, I shape sessions around practical shifts and honest reflection. Based in Vadodara, I offer sessions in English, Gujarati, Hindi/Urdu and Marathi, both in person and online. Sessions move between focused skill-building—communication, coping with anxiety and navigating relationship ruptures—and gentle exploration of patterns, with simple between-session notes or activities when helpful. This way of working suits adolescents, parents and couples seeking clear steps alongside deeper understanding.
