Assistant Psychologist at The Inner World Counselling Centre for Mental Well-being

Vismita Kurup with Msc in clinical psychology is an Assistant Psychologist at The innerworld counselling for mental well being and Student Counsellor at Acharya Institute, where she works closely with students to support their emotional well-being, personal development, and adjustment to academic life. Her work focuses on helping students understand themselves better, navigate challenges effectively, and build healthier coping mechanisms for both personal and academic concerns. Through individual counselling sessions, Vismita supports students experiencing stress, anxiety, emotional difficulties, self-doubt, relationship concerns, life transitions, and challenges related to identity and self-growth. She believes that counselling is not only about addressing difficulties but also about helping individuals recognize their strengths, develop self-awareness, and move towards meaningful change. Alongside her counselling work, she regularly conducts mental health awareness programmes, interactive workshops, and student engagement activities that encourage open conversations about mental health and promote psychological well-being within educational settings. Her areas of interest include student mental health, emotional resilience, selfesteem, interpersonal relationships, and preventive mental health care. Drawing from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based techniques, solution-focused strategies, and psychoeducational interventions, Vismita adapts her work to the unique needs of each individual. Her experience across clinical, counselling, hospital, and community settings has strengthened her skills in psychological assessment, therapeutic communication, case documentation, and mental health advocacy. Passionate about making mental health support approachable and accessible, Vismita is committed to creating spaces where individuals feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow.
