About Me:

I enjoy working with anyone age 13 or older with struggles in the area of self-esteem, setting healthy boundaries with others, learning how to be self-respectful in words, thoughts & feelings, stress & managing anxiety as well as anyone who is healing from loss of either a loved one or pet(s). I also enjoy helping people during seasons of transition whether in young adulthood to increase independence or later years to adjust to decrease in independence resulting from illness, injury or the aging process. I especially enjoy working to provide faith-based struggles.

I have always focused on providing warmth, compassionate & non-judgmental interactions with others so that each person feels safe as he/she shares the struggles with emotional & mental well-being.

I consider my work a ministry. I have worked with people from various socio-economic, racial & ethnic backgrounds. I am a second generation Asian Indian & have found that people of color tend to gravitate toward me & express a sense of acceptance. I work with the mindset that I am in a person's life to support that specific point in life's journey.

On a personal note, I was born in Calcutta, now Kolkata India & raised in the United States.  I've lived in different parts of Indiana & have resided in the Indianapolis area for the last decade.  I am divorced & remarried with 2 grown children, a 27 yo son & a 20 yo daughter.  I also have a Westie dog.  In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, involvement with small groups at my church & my volunteer commitment to Paws & Think in partnership with the Marion Co Juvenile Detention Center to allow the kids who have earned points to train shelter dogs basic commands in hopes that the chance for adoption will increase over a 4 day period.  I love singing dancing, Zumba, comedy (catch my comedy reels on instagram at puti_kapoor), meeting new people.
