  St. Jude India ChildCare Centres

  Jan 2021 - now

  Consultant Counselor

  The field of cancer-care is close to my heart. I work as a consultant counselor at St. Jude for Life (SJFL), a vertical of St. Jude India Child Care Center. I connect with survivors of childhood cancer, their parents and family to get a holistic understanding of the survivor’s journey post treatment and recovery. The induction process helps me understand survivors’ current status of their physical, mental, and social health and wellbeing; academics; career; relationship; challenges they are facing and aspirations for future. In addition to providing support, resources, and information about SJFL services and projects, I also provide counseling for various mental health concerns. Show less
