Smitha Oomen - Associate Psychologist

About Me

I am an experienced psychologist and counsellor with a solid background in mental health, education, and child protection services. Over the years, I had the privilege of working in both clinical and educational settings, helping individuals who are facing anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. Throughout my career, I have served as a counsellor and psychologist in various institutions, including KSACS, Muthoot Medical Centre, and the District Child Protection Unit in Trivandrum. My work has taken me across different spheres—healthcare, child protection, and academia—where I have guided individuals, students, and families through various mental health challenges and emotional hurdles. I am deeply committed to maintaining high ethical standards and prioritizing patient-centered care. My approach to therapy emphasizes patience, active listening, and problem-solving skills, which I believe are vital for fostering a supportive environment. I’ gained extensive knowledge in child psychology, understanding the legal aspects of child welfare, and educational psychology, making me a valuable resource in both counselling and educational contexts. I am passionate about helping individuals manage their emotional challenges, develop coping strategies, and embark on their personal growth journeys. It’s incredibly rewarding to see people find their strength and resilience, and I’m honoured to be part of that process.
