I began my journey into my private practice in January 2025. That’s when QInsight Healthcare formally took shape and transformed from an idea into a lived reality. My earlier professional work and personal experiences had shaped my professional approach to be client-centric and focused on deeper, meaningful, and quality insight. Hence the name QInsight (Quality Insight), just in case you were wondering!
2025 was a year of laying foundations, showing up consistently, and shaping the kind of mental health practice I wanted to build with my team: one rooted in clarity, care, and thoughtful work.
I am as excited to share this journey with you as I was while living through these moments and milestones.
Apart from the therapy sessions and the heartwarming support of my clients, I ventured a little further.
I co-conducted a session on Postpartum Psychosis as part of a prenatal education workshop for moms-to-be, in collaboration with Dr Mamta Pattnayak (Gynaecologist) and Dr Neetu Rathi (Physiotherapist). (Image: Left)
This collaboration highlighted the importance of integrating mental health into prenatal and postpartum care.

In March 2025, I was delighted to visit IIT Delhi Campus to conduct Memory Assessments and Dementia Screening during a one-day Geriatric Brain Awareness Camp, organised by IIT Delhi in collaboration with International Brain Research Organization (IBRO). (Image: Left- onsite camp at IIT Delhi)
Additionally, on account of Women’s Day, I got the opportunity to discuss mental health with a group of strong, independent females leading their own ventures organized by Decor by DHINGRAS in Gurugram.

Keep the steady energy, I received a novel opportunity to be part of a team of clinical psychologists invited to conduct workshops for a regiment in the Indian Army.
Together, we delivered a four-day intensive workshop on Mental Health and Marital Harmony for the 14 Mahar Regiment of the Indian Army. It was a challenging yet professionally enriching experience, to say the least.

Now comes another challenge – Internships!
Since the time I was an intern and later learned the ropes of the professional world, I have wanted to give a meaningful and supportive experience and environment to interns to foster their growth and interest in Psychology (No kidding, we do need more quality professionals in India!).
With that in mind, I began working on a structured offline internship program that could offer exactly what I would want as an intern. The program officially began in June as a Summer Internship, and we successfully achieved every weekly milestone designed into it! It was a meaningful step towards mentoring and training young mental health professionals, with an emphasis on ethical practice, observation, and reflective learning.

Moving on to another area we explored – Workshops!
During September and October, we organised online workshops on suicide, self-harm, and mental and physical health across educational settings. My team worked closely behind the scenes, and we chose to begin with one of the toughest and most sensitive areas of concern.
Adding to this journey, as part of Suicide Prevention Month, I was honoured to deliver a webinar on Suicidal Risk and Prevention for college students at DAV College, Chandigarh — my alma mater.

10th October is celebrated as World Mental Health Day. The Maurya School, Palam Vihar, Gurugram, invited me to conduct interactive mental health sessions with their high school students as part of the day. The sessions focused on normalising conversations around emotions, stress, and help-seeking in an age-appropriate and interactive way.
Interacting with an audience of 200–300 students is certainly challenging, but fun too! It was heartwarming to see the level of awareness these students already had, and how open they were to seeking support for themselves.

Towards the end of the year, I curated a reflective pocketbook titled You Matter as a gentle token of support for clients, offering space for self-reflection alongside therapy. I’m grateful for the warmth with which it was received.
You Matter is a pocket-sized reminder to pause. A tiny book filled with gentle reminders to return to yourself when the world feels too loud.
Through simple reflections on self-talk, forgiveness, emotional regulation, slowing down, letting go, and staying connected, it invites you to explore who you are with softness and honesty. Each page offers a moment of clarity, comfort, or perspective, reminding you that growth is not linear and there is no final version of you.
Created as a quiet companion for daily life — whether to keep on your desk, gift to someone you love, or reach for when you need a pause.

The year 2025 helped set the foundation of QInsight Healthcare — with intention, clarity, and care. It was a year of steady steps, meaningful conversations, and learning from complexity.
As we move forward, these experiences will continue to guide the practice we are building.
I look forward to sharing more wonderful experiences with you!
