About
I began my journey in sport as a national-level table tennis athlete, where years of high-performance competition made one reality unmistakably clear: performance is never purely physical. Focus under pressure, emotional regulation, confidence, and recovery from setbacks consistently determined outcomes, yet these psychological skills were rarely trained with intent.
That gap shaped my professional direction.
I went on to complete a BA, MSc., and Doctorate in Sports Psychology, grounding my practice in evidence-based performance psychology and applied work within the Indian sporting ecosystem. Over the past seven years, I have worked extensively in a one-on-one capacity with athletes, supporting them through performance slumps, competition anxiety, confidence breakdowns, injury recovery, transitions, and sustained high-pressure demands. My 1:1 work is structured, goal-oriented, and integrated with the athlete’s training and competition calendar.
Alongside this, I have worked across the athlete development pathway from grassroots to elite, partnering with coaches, academies, and organisations to embed mental skills training into daily practice, not as crisis intervention but as performance infrastructure.
My professional focus is on helping athletes train their minds with the same discipline they bring to physical preparation, while also supporting coaches and organisations to create environments that protect both performance and well-being. India does not need louder conversations about “mental toughness”; it needs structured, evidence-based mental performance support that athletes can rely on.
If you believe sport performance is built as much in the mind as it is in the body, we are already aligned.
