    Overview

  • Clinical Psychologist Rumi Bhandari is a Trauma Informed and Queer Affirmative Psychotherapist with an experience of over two decades of working with individuals and families, helping them navigate through their personal, emotional, psychological, and social turbulence and build healthy healing relationships at home, in the community and with themselves. She is the Best Clinical Psychologist in Pune.

  • She has a Masters in Clinical Psychology, Masters in Hindustani Classical Music, Bachelors in Child Developmental Psychology, a PG Diploma in Counselling Psychology, Child and Adolescent Counselling, Buddhist Psychology, Christian Counselling, Yoga and Ayurveda. She is a Certified Cognitive Behaviour Therapist, Grief and Trauma Therapist, Play Therapist and Art-based Therapist. 

  • In her view, "Therapy" is an alluring amalgamation of concepts and notions from Psychology, Philosophy, Sociology and Spirituality leading to a holistic development of the being, eventually attaining self-actualization, purpose and meaning in life. 

  • Her inclination towards Mythology, Metaphors and Music which she most fondly uses in her therapy sessions has seldom failed to bring on insights for the patients, get them unstuck and help them move on towards becoming self-accepting individuals and better versions of themselves.  

  • According to her, the earlier the intervention, the better the prognosis and treatment leading to greater emotional awareness, empowerment and long-standing positive transformations. 

  • She's inclined towards research on relationship trauma and its impacts on an individual and discovering trauma reduction and resilience-building techniques catering to the Indian population. Having said that, she also believes, that no matter when in life you choose healing over escape, your battle is half won. 

  • When life becomes unbearably hard, the easiest thing to do is - run. But one must face one's trauma to overcome it, she adds. The first step is the hardest but you are not alone. All you need is to commit to the healing journey and trust the space which encompasses: You, The Therapist and The Therapeutic Process.
