Sohini Banerjee

Counselling Psychologist

Hi, my name is Sohini Banerjee and I bring with me more than 25 years of combined experience as a researcher, academic, a development sector practitioner and a mental health professional. My journey with mental health began in the late 1990s when I was involved in a community mental health project in a geographically remote region of the country. I have the experience of counselling survivors of suicide attempt, individuals with mood disorders (anxiety, depression), personality disorders (bipolar), relationship issues, couples counselling.


As an educator at prestigious institutes, I have had to counsel students as well. My clients describe me as ‘empathetic’, ‘non-judgemental’, ‘positive’ and ‘a good listener’. The ability to use my skills to help another individual in need excites and challenges me as it not only provides me with the satisfaction of helping a fellow human being but, in the process this opportunity offers personal development and growth. I am grateful to the Universe for all that has been bestowed upon me.

We have been in contact since January 2023. I have approached quite a few psychologists in the past, you are the professional one, whom I was actually searching for. I really like your techniques of work because it follows a different procedure where I never felt that I am not normal. You gave me practical and simple ways to get out of my depression. Simple tasks are easy to do and maintain, specially for a working woman like me. I was never fond of difficult or extraordinary life changing procedures, but your techniques are quite useful and easy to follow. I am now quite capable of controlling my anger, depression and other feelings. But I may need your help in future.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I have been receiving from Sohini for the past 2 years. From the very first session, her warmth and kindness created a safe space for me to explore and heal. Sohini's genuine concern and approach for my well-being have been instrumental in my journey toward recovery. She has a remarkable ability to listen deeply and offer insightful, compassionate advice. Her unwavering support and guidance through hours of conversation made me feel more equipped to handle life’s situations and challenges. I highly recommend Sohini Banerjee to anyone seeking a dedicated and caring therapist.
