Miss Sonia David

Counseling Psychologist

“Psychological Counsellor. Child and Adolescent Psychologist. Film Therapist. School Psychologist.”

About Me

I am a Child and Adolescent Psychologist. I help young people navigate big feelings or school challenges. My approach, informed by my PhD in Psychology, creates a supportive space. We can explore complex emotions. I often use film therapy; it's a gentle way to express what words cannot. This suits children and adolescents seeking to understand themselves, particularly with school anxieties.

Approach

Psychological counsellor, child specialist and film therapist—sessions move at your pace, taking small steps to name feelings and make sense of school stress. In Bangalore and online I meet you in English or Hindi/Urdu, keeping sessions steady with creative prompts, short reflective work and clear takeaways to try between meetings. Assessments or artful film clips help clarify patterns; we set simple, practical goals together and check progress each time. This way often suits adolescents and parents seeking a collaborative, hands-on path through intense moments.
