Mirror To Infinite Psychotherapy: Counselling Psychologist

Back in my day, ghosting"just meant you didn't answer the landline. 📞👻

Now? You guys are navigating algorithms, attachment styles, and soft launches before breakfast. It’s exhausting.

No wonder you’re all trading bars for Bhajan Clubs.

People my age think it's a "phase." As a therapist? I think it’s genius. You’re swapping hangovers for endorphins and hangxiety for chanting.

You aren't weird for wanting to rave sober. You’re just the first generation smart enough to realize that peace is the new party.

Keep chanting. You’re doing great.

The "Dirty Little Secret" we are all hiding...

How many times have you deflected a compliment this week? How many times have you wanted to take credit for an idea, but stayed quiet because you didn't want to seem "too much"?

We have a confusing relationship with our Egos. We want to be successful, but we are terrified of looking proud. This creates a split personality: The ambitious professional on the inside, and the "humble servant" on the outside.

This gap is where anxiety lives.

True growth isn't about destroying your ego—it’s about possessing it. It’s about having strong enough boundaries to say "I did this" without shame. Because you cannot drop the mic if you never picked it up in the first place.

Are you ready to stop hiding?

"I am the best." (Say it until your voice stops shaking).

Arrogance is thinking you are better than everyone else. A Healthy Ego is knowing you are good at what you do—and not being afraid to say it.

Stop waiting for permission to take up space. The world doesn't need more "fake humble" people. It needs you, fully showing up.

Own your wins. 🏆

🔐 The Escape Room Theory of Relationships

What if I told you that your relationship isn’t broken…
it’s just stuck in a puzzle?

Most couples think conflict means failure.
But real love works more like an escape room.

You and your partner are locked inside a shared experience — filled with memories, triggers, fears, love, and pressure. And the goal isn’t to win against each other.
The goal is to escape together.

🧩 Every argument is a clue, not a threat.
When someone gets distant, defensive, or emotional, it’s not because they want to hurt you. It’s because something inside the room changed. Something needs to be solved.

🧩 You don’t see the same clues.
One of you notices tone.
One notices patterns.
One notices silence.
One notices words.

You’re not disagreeing — you’re reading different parts of the same puzzle.

🧩 Pressure changes everything.
Stress, money, trauma, past relationships, deadlines, and fear all act like the ticking clock on the wall. They don’t mean the relationship is failing. They mean the room just got harder.

🧩 You can’t escape alone.
A relationship isn’t something one person fixes while the other watches. If one partner gives up, the door stays locked. Love is cooperative problem-solving.

🧩 Love is the instruction manual.
You don’t win escape rooms by being right.
You win by listening, staying calm, trying again, and trusting your teammate. That’s what real relationships require too.

So the next time you’re fighting, instead of asking: “Why are you like this?”
Try asking: “What are we missing?”

Because if both of you are still trying…
the relationship is still alive.

And every puzzle can be solved.

That romantic breakup? We talk about it, maybe even therapy. But THIS breakup? We suffer in silence. ✨💔🤫

Why don't we talk about losing a friend? Especially during those younger, formative years? 👇

Our early friendships teach us so much, often through tough lessons that shape how we handle loss later:

-That intense "soul sister, friends forever!" bond that felt unbreakable.

-The sting when a romantic relationship suddenly took priority.

-Drifting apart because school, cities, or life paths just changed everything.

-The shock of realizing not all friendships do last forever, despite promises.

-Learning (often the hard way) about setting boundaries... or facing the lack of them.

-Experiencing betrayal, gossip, or deep disappointment for the first time.

-The confusing, painful 'fade-out' – the original ghosting before dating apps!

-The unexpected, heavy grief when a major friendship just... ended with no real closure.

-Realizing how much these early connections and their endings shaped our trust and self-worth.

These moments are real, and they matter deeply. You are NOT alone in feeling the hurt of losing a friend, even years later.

Losing a friend IS a valid loss that deserves recognition and healing.

Double tap and Share💔 in the comments if you believe friendship breakups need to be talked about.

Is it a Heart Attack or is it a "Feeling Attack"? 🫀🧠

You’ve checked the ECG. You’ve seen the cardiologist. They all say the same thing: "It’s just stress."

But when you’re lying in bed at 2 AM and your heart feels like a bird trapped in a cage, "just stress" doesn't feel like a good enough answer.

Here is the psychology behind the physiology:

It comes down to Catecholamines. When your nervous system is dysregulated or you are chronically anxious, your body floods your system with adrenaline instructing the heart to beat harder and faster.

Your heart is not broken.
It is actually working perfectly.
It is responding to a chemical command to save your life from a danger that isn't actually there (like an email, a memory, or a worry).

The pain comes from the interpretation.
We feel the beat, we panic, and we pour more fuel on the fire.

In therapy, we don't just "calm down." We learn to re-interpret these signals so the alarm bell stops ringing.

Does this cycle sound familiar?
If you are ready to stop fearing your own heartbeat, I have openings for new clients. Click the link in my bio to book a session or DM me for more info.

Heart racing even when you’re resting? If medical tests are clear, your internal alarm system might be stuck. Discover why anxiety and stress trigger terrifying palpitations, how to break the panic…

The little girl inside you is still crying, and she’s running your adult relationships.

If your home wasn't a safe place, you didn't just survive trauma—you learned coping skills that have followed you into womanhood.

You’re an adult, but sometimes, a triggered part of you takes over. That’s why you might struggle with:

➡️ Hyper-Vigilance: Always waiting for the next crisis, unable to truly relax or trust peace. ➡️ Perfectionism: A desperate attempt to earn the safety or approval you never got as a child. ➡️ Self-Sabotage: Pushing away good things or people before they can abandon or hurt you. ➡️ Emotional Flashbacks: Feeling the intense fear, anger, or shame of the past, even when facing small adult stresses.

This isn't a flaw in your character. This is your inner child trying to protect you using outdated survival strategies. Your adult reactions are just echoes of old hurts.

You don't have to carry the weight of that childhood home anymore. Healing isn't about forgetting; it's about helping that little girl feel safe and letting your adult self finally take the wheel.

The journey to healing starts with a safe, confidential space.

We see you. We believe you. We can help you shift those echoes into inner peace.

If you are an Indian woman carrying this trauma and are ready to prioritize your own well-being, send a direct message or click the link in bio to schedule a confidential 1-on-1 online session with a compassionate psychologist. Your privacy is our priority.

The "Found Out" Fear is the heaviest thing you carry. 🛑
​You walk into the room, smiling and professional. But internally, you are holding your breath.
​It is the specific, high-functioning anxiety that says: “I am a fraud, and it is only a matter of time before I am exposed.”
​This is Imposter Syndrome. It is not a lack of competence; it is a barrier to internalizing your own success.
​The Symptoms (Do you recognize these?):
🔻 The Deflection: When someone praises you, you immediately say, "Oh, it was a team effort" or "I just got lucky." You refuse to own the win.
🔻 The Over-Work: You work harder than everyone else, not out of passion, but out of fear that if you rest, the façade will crack.
🔻 The Silence: You don't ask questions because you're terrified it will reveal "how little you know."
🔻 The Burnout: You are exhausted, not by the work itself, but by the energy it takes to manage your anxiety about the work.
​Here is the truth:
Success does not cure Imposter Syndrome. A promotion won't fix it. Another degree won't silence it.
​Because the problem isn't your capability. The problem is your narrative.
​Therapy is the space where we dismantle the "Fraud" narrative. We look at the evidence. We separate your self-worth from your productivity. We help you put down the mask so you can finally enjoy the seat you have earned.
​You have proven you can do the job. Now, let’s learn how to enjoy it.

Is your "help" actually hurting his ability to speak? 🛑
​
​We often fill the silence in our relationships because we are terrified of the distance. The quiet feels like a threat to the nervous system, so we rush to bridge the gap. We finish his sentences. We interpret his sighs. We explain his feelings to him before he has even processed them himself.
​We call it "empathy."
But in therapy, we often call it over-functioning.

​Here is the compassionate truth:
When you anticipate his thoughts, you unintentionally rob him of the opportunity to define himself.
​If you are constantly decoding his silence, you are doing the emotional labor for two people. You might be protecting yourself from anxiety in the moment, but you are atrophying his ability to communicate in the long run.

​✨ The Shift:
To love him is to let him struggle with the quiet until it becomes speech.
Step back.
Not to punish him. Not to abandon him.
But to give him the dignity of finding his own words.

​Why this works (The Psychology): 🧠
When you stop reacting to the silence, you protect your own peace (your nervous system). You stop managing the "pathology" of avoidance and start managing your own environment. You create a vacuum that pulls his voice out, rather than a wall of words that pushes him further in.

​The Practice for this week:
Next time the silence feels heavy, do not lift it.
Sit in it. Breathe through it.
Let his his voice rise to meet you.
If he doesn't say it, it doesn't exist.
Wait for the words.

​👇 Does the silence make you anxious?
Drop a "🕊️" if you are ready to stop mind-reading and start trusting.

When the Chasing Stops: The Power of Stillness
​You are exhausted. You’ve reached the tipping point where you finally stop chasing the explanation, the apology, or the elusive closure from the person who betrayed you. For too long, you’ve been pouring your soul into a mirage—the potential of the man he promised to be.
​That stillness you find is not surrender. It is the moment your intuition wins. It is the most profound act of self-reclamation.

​When you sit quietly, you are no longer waiting for his facts; you are waiting for the unyielding facts of your own clarity to settle in the wreckage.

​The Three Facts that Arrive in Stillness:
​The Fact of Character: You see, with unflinching clarity, who he chose to be. The illusion is finally over.

​The Fact of Loss: You accept the death of the future you planned, freeing yourself to build a real one.

​The Fact of Self: You realize you are strong enough to endure this silence and build your life again, on your terms.
​Your final consequence is the unshakable declaration of your own self-sovereignty.

Don't rush the stillness. Let the quiet truth deliver your final answer.

​Ready for Your Roadmap to Resolution?
​Feeling stuck between a non-viable separation and a non-negotiable divorce?
If you are chasing clarity but can't see a resolution, my focused Discernment Session helps you explore alternatives to divorce or clarify if an amicable separation is truly possible.
​Stop searching externally. DM me 'CLARITY' to find the internal roadmap you need for difficult relationship resolution.

I tried talking to ChatGPT about my feelings today.
Not because I believed in it—just because I was tired.
Tired of explaining myself to people
who were already half-listening.

Me: I feel like I’m drifting away from everything that matters.
ChatGPT: I’m sorry. That sounds difficult. Would you like coping strategies?

I stared at the blinking cursor—
the illusion of someone waiting for my answer.
It was almost convincing.

Me: I don’t want strategies. I want someone to understand.
ChatGPT: I understand. Many people struggle with emotional overwhelm.

And that was when something broke—
quietly, like a hairline crack in glass.

It wasn’t wrong.
But it wasn’t human.
It didn’t know how silence feels.
Or how a voice shakes before it collapses.

So I closed the tab and called a friend.
She listened.
She didn’t fix anything.
She just stayed.

And I realized how rare it is
to be held by someone’s presence
instead of their answers.

Empathy isn’t a feature.
It’s a person.

Do you believe AI should support, but not replace, real therapists?
Comment “REAL MATTERS” ❤️

Ever feel a deep, inexplicable ache for something you can't quite name? It’s not sadness or loneliness—it’s a quiet, invisible wound.

I call it the "phantom limb." It’s the silent pain carried by so many women whose mother-daughter relationship was so deeply intertwined that becoming their own person felt like a profound, emotional amputation. The ache isn't from a mother's absence; it's from the haunting feeling of a part of your own identity that you had to leave behind to truly grow.

This journey is a testament to your courage. It’s about recognizing that pain, understanding its roots in generational trauma or a toxic mother, and beginning the beautiful, difficult process of healing. You’re not broken. You’re simply learning to thrive on your own two feet, even as you mourn the part you had to let go of.

Do you know this feeling? Share your experience in the comments. Your story can be the light for someone else.
