Let's Answer a Few Common Questions:
What does a life coach do, and who is an ICF Credentialed Coach?
A life coach helps you gain clarity, overcome challenges, and move towards your personal or professional goals.
An ICF Credentialed Coach is trained and certified by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), the world's leading coaching body, ensuring they follow globally recognised standards and ethics.
How is coaching different from therapy?
Therapy often focuses on healing past experiences and emotional difficulties. Coaching is future-focused. It helps you discover your strengths, set meaningful goals, and create practical steps to move forward. If needed, a coach may also recommend therapy when it is more appropriate.
How many coaching sessions are required?
There is no fixed number. Some people gain clarity in just 3–5 sessions, while others choose to work together for a few months to create deeper, lasting change. It depends on your goals and where you are in your journey.
Do you offer online coaching?
Yes. I offer one-on-one and group coaching sessions online, making it easy for you to connect from anywhere in the world.
What is Therapeutic Art Coaching?
Therapeutic Art Coaching uses simple creative activities like drawing, colours, and visual expression to help you explore your thoughts and emotions. You don't need to be an artist. The focus isn't on creating beautiful art—it's on gaining insights, expressing yourself freely, and discovering new perspectives.
In her words:
“I continue to explore who I am, because I believe we are all works in progress. Formally, I studied Physics at IIT Roorkee, but life gradually led me towards painting, writing, theatre, and coaching. To me, both science and art inspire wonder - and that sense of wonder continues to guide my journey.
My search for meaning often takes me towards learning, reflection, conversations, and coaching spaces. Working with people from different walks of life, many of whom are asking the same questions I once asked myself, brings me closer to my own purpose. I feel grateful that my work and methods resonate deeply with my clients. Through theatre, colours, words, and conversations, I aim to create experiences that encourage expression, connection, insight, and growth in a simple yet meaningful way.”
