Parul Agarwal

I enjoy learning and working on myself through community gatherings, conversations and reflection exercises. When I sense the need to be heard, I seek support. I make a conscious attempt to choose words that I use to express myself, both when speaking and writing.

Through my yoga practice I have noticed positive bodily changes, and this helped me discover that “Life is dynamic and that I have the power to contribute to its dynamism”. This loving reminder empowers me to make choices, and to act on them.

In college, I trained in Psychology. My further learning grew immensely once I was introduced to Non- Violent Communication. Instead of holding a position of an expert which I sensed separated me from people who sought my support, NVC showed me that I could look at a client as a fellow human being and bring my whole self to connect with them. This freed me from the fear of being a professional expert by openly expressing what’s alive in me, and to trust in my fellow human’s capacity to understand me.

Through my own awareness and practice, I’ve begun to see how I can add value to people’s lives by being present for them.

In my work so far, I’ve worked with hundreds of children, parents and individual adults, in groups and one-on- one. I’ve also worked with schools and colleges, teaching Psychology and as a Counsellor.

I would love to work with you too.
