About

Healing the mind, body and emotions : with compassion and understanding

I’m Karuna Bhatia, a Counselling Psychologist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and Graphologist with 18+ years of experience supporting individuals through emotional, personal, and relationship challenges. From childhood, I felt a deep calling to help people. Today, I feel privileged to turn that calling into meaningful work, that is, creating a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where people can pause, understand themselves more deeply, and find their way toward healing and growth.

My Approach

Healing is deeply personal, and no single approach works for everyone. My work is eclectic and heart-centered, drawing from diverse therapeutic methods based on each individual’s needs.

Alongside talk therapy, I integrate:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Somatic work
Yoga and dance movement therapy
Family systems and constellation work

I believe our experiences are held not only in our thoughts and emotions, but also in our bodies. Healing, therefore, involves understanding what we think, acknowledging what we feel, and listening to what our body is trying to tell us.

Areas i work with

Relationship counselling
Trauma-informed therapy
Healing and rebuilding after difficult or abusive relationships
Narcissistic and emotionally abusive relationship dynamics

I also create educational content around narcissism, relationship patterns, emotional well-being, and healing from unhealthy relationships : helping people recognize patterns that may otherwise be difficult to understand.

My professional journey

Over the years, I have worked in diverse settings as a school psychologist, college counsellor, and career guidance professional. I currently run my private practice while also supporting students in colleges.

Qualifications:

M.A. in Counselling Psychology
Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling Psychology
Certificate in Graphology
Certificate in Clinical Hypnotherapy

beyond therapy

At the heart of my work is a simple truth: you don’t have to navigate your healing journey alone. If you’re looking for a space where you can be heard without judgment, understood with compassion, and supported as you grow, I would be honoured to walk alongside you.

Karuna Bhatia

As a little child, when I was just 4 years old, I was super sure that, I want to be a doctor so that I could be in a helping profession. Being extra sensitive, I could understand people’s suffering and hence had decided on curing people’s illness so that I would be able to spread smile and happiness. Little did I know, that when I grew up I would treat people’s mental distress rather than physical distress.
Nonetheless, the intention remains the same and I’m thankful to the almighty and the universe for giving me opportunities to fulfill my childhood intention and passion.

Reliable and Genuine

It has been an absolute privilege to know Prof Karuna Bhatia, professionally and personally. She is someone on whom people can consistently rely, and she gives of herself with genuine kindness, compassion, and generosity. We had the honor of conducting her two sessions in our department, one for the students of MBA/MCA and the second session for the faculty members. In her delightful session, she elaborated a complex phenomena of Self-Awareness and Self-Esteem and the role played by it towards the enhancement of our career. During her sessions, she related to the audience with incredible ease, and her ability to maintain an empathic and open stance while still holding herself to the highest professional and ethical standards is unmatched. Her extensive experience has given us the insight and understanding needed to help children and families navigate through the most challenging situations and circumstances. We are eagerly looking forward to her next session on another interesting topic soon. Thanks Karuna for spending your valuable time with our students and faculty members.

Very Effective Counselling

I have been working on myself with Karuna ma’am from the past one year for my anxiety and insomnia and it has proven very effective for me. I had tried a couple of counsellors in the past but none of them had been as comforting and effective as ma’am. She gives small techniques to cope up with my anxiety which I can use it in day to day life and it has been great. The sleep association techniques and the journaling techniques provided by ma’am has helped me a great deal in treating my insomnia and anxiety. Even in the worst states she has helped me overcome it with her patience and different approaches. I couldn’t be more grateful to have found her counsel.

The workshop conducted by Karuna madam that I attended was very good. I found it very informative and helpful. The best thing was: it was interactive so we had plenty of time to ask questions. Thanks to madam for giving us this opportunity. Looking forward for more.
