# Sharanya Misra > Counselling & Care ## Posts - [Know Your Mental Health Professionals](https://sharanyamisra.com/2025/08/31/know-your-mental-health-professionals/): Over the past couple of years, my work as a counsellor has led me to discover that there is a definite gap in the public understanding about which mental health professional to approach for specific concerns. While awareness around mental health and the availability of support have grown, many people remain unclear about which expert is best suited for their needs. I am not surprised, too. Afterall, with the mental health space getting its boost in recent years, lots of terminologies and titles have cropped up, and this can be really confusing for anyone outside this space. If you’re thinking […] - [Building a Secure Attachment with My Baby](https://sharanyamisra.com/2023/04/03/building-a-secure-attachment-with-my-baby/): Did you know that everything we do in our child’s first year could be a great opportunity to build a… - [Is our language as new-age parents INCLUSIVE Enough?](https://sharanyamisra.com/2022/12/01/is-our-language-as-new-age-parents-inclusive-enough/): I was looking through some parenting content on Google recently when the picture of a ‘family’ from a children’s book popped up. It showed a child with a mother, a father and 2 grandparents standing together, all smiles. While it was a beautiful picture, it had me worried. Would my child too be growing up learning that only this is what a family looks like? Research shows that early learning in children is of immense significance. It is during these years that kids are like sponges, absorbing every piece of information around them, getting ready cognitively, emotionally, and socially for […] - [How Co-Sleeping became pivotal in my Motherhood Journey](https://sharanyamisra.com/2022/08/29/how-co-sleeping-became-pivotal-in-my-motherhood-journey/): My 3.5-year-old daughter and I co-sleep every day.

I hadn’t given it much thought until a year ago when finally, thanks to its ... - [Working Parents & Their Sanity – Building a Support System](https://sharanyamisra.com/2022/05/04/working-parents-their-sanity-building-a-support-system/): Let me at the outset clarify that when I mention ‘work’ here, it includes ANY work. So, it could be the work at home done by a home-maker-parent or it could be work in a professional/entrepreneurial environment. Either way, every parent struggles to find that fine balance between ‘work’ and ‘parenting’, especially with younger kids who still need high emotional and physical support from their caretakers. And not just any balance, but more importantly, balance that lets them keep their own sanity intact! Parenting isn’t easy, and I have realised that the solution to this ever-present problem is to Offload, […] ## Pages - [School Partnerships](https://sharanyamisra.com/school-partnerships/): How Can we Help School Partnerships Wellbeing in EDUCATION Strengthening School Communities Through Wellbeing Supporting student wellbeing requires more than isolated interventions – it thrives in environments where emotional safety, understanding, and consistency are woven into everyday school life. My work with schools focuses on building sustainable wellbeing practices that support students, educators, and families together. I partner with schools to strengthen emotional wellbeing frameworks, enhance inclusion, and support the social–emotional development of children and adolescents in ways that are developmentally informed and practically applicable. Wellbeing is not an add-on to education; it is the foundation that allows growth to […] - [Parental Counselling](https://sharanyamisra.com/parental-counselling/): AREAS OF SUPPORT PARENTAL COUNSELLING PARENTING Parenting with Awareness and Emotional Attunement Parenting can be deeply meaningful – and deeply challenging. Parental counselling offers a space to pause, reflect, and feel supported as you navigate the emotional, relational, and developmental aspects of raising a child. I work with parents and caregivers who may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck, as well as those who simply want to parent with greater awareness, confidence, and emotional attunement. Parental counselling is not about “perfect parenting” – it is about understanding yourself, your child, and your relationship with compassion and clarity. “There is no […] - [Individual Therapy](https://sharanyamisra.com/individual-therapy/): AREAS OF SUPPORT Individual Therapy MENTAL HEALTH A Thoughtful Space for Personal Growth Individual therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what you are experiencing – without judgement or pressure to have everything figured out. I work with adolescents and adults, offering psychological support that is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practice. People seek therapy for many reasons. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or navigating a life transition. You may be carrying experiences that are difficult to name, or simply sensing that something feels out of balance. Therapy does not require […] - [Blogs](https://sharanyamisra.com/blogs/): Blogs Building a Secure Attachment with My Baby Did you know that everything we do in our child’s first year could be a great opportunity to build a Secure Attachment with them?
