Meet Buanesvari “Vari” Paarvati, Assistant Manager for our Crisis Support Team at Samaritans of Singapore.
As a leader in our 24-hour Crisis Support Team (CST) with empathy and purpose, Vari draws on insights from her Master’s in Business Psychology to strengthen our CST's resilience, drive change management, and foster compassionate support for her team and clients. Her dedication to our mission shines through in every crisis she helps navigate. In her own words, flexible learning has empowered her to juggle shifts, adapt quickly, and grow into a stronger leader for the sector.
At SOS, Vari is more than a manager. In everything she does, she embodies our core mission — to be an available lifeline to anyone in crisis — with unwavering care and trust.
