Mamta Verma is a dedicated psychologist with over 13 years of experience working across diverse areas of mental health and well-being, with a strong focus on adolescents, young people, and their families. She has worked closely with youth in schools, community settings, structured therapy environments, and digital mental health platforms. Over the years, her passion for youth and parenting groups has grown from witnessing how safe, peer-based spaces can significantly strengthen emotional regulation, self-expression, and resilience during adolescence.

Through her work in school mental health programs, group-based adolescent interventions, and helpline-based support services, Mamta has observed how emotional difficulties in young people are deeply influenced by family dynamics, peer relationships, academic stress, and communication patterns at home and with friends. Alongside direct therapeutic work with adolescents, she actively works with parents to foster responsive caregiving, emotional attunement, and effective behaviour support. She is trained in Psychological First Aid, Suicide First Aid, CBT, mindfulness-based approaches, and has facilitated Covid-19 well-being and support groups.

At SoulUp, Mamta will be facilitating the Parenting Teens Support Group, bringing a warm, reflective, and developmentally sensitive approach. She believes that support groups offer a powerful space for connection, learning, and shared understanding, and finds this work deeply meaningful because she has consistently seen how receiving the right support at the right time can make a lasting difference.

More about Support Groups & Therapy Groups:

1. What is an online therapy or support group?

Online therapy groups or support groups are structured, therapist-led sessions where participants gather virtually to discuss and work on specific mental health or personal growth topics.

These groups offer a supportive environment and help members learn coping strategies and relevant techniques from the therapist. Participants offer each other encouragement, share advice, and provide emotional support, helping one another feel less isolated.

2. What benefits can I expect from joining an online therapy group or support group?

Participants in online therapy groups often experience improved mental health, a greater sense of connection, and enhanced coping skills. Group therapy provides structured guidance from a therapist, which can lead to valuable insights and personal growth.

3. How does online group therapy compare to one-on-one therapy?

One-on-one therapy is personalized, focusing solely on your needs, which can be ideal for in-depth, private work with a therapist.

Online group therapy, however, offers a sense of community and shared experience. In addition to learning from the therapist, members get to connect with others facing similar challenges. Group settings provide diverse perspectives and reduce isolation, which participants find valuable.

4. Are online groups effective?

Yes, studies show that online groups can be as effective as in-person groups. The online format provides convenience and accessibility while offering the same structured therapeutic benefits, especially for those who prefer the comfort of their home environment.

5. Will I have to share my personal journey in the group?

Sharing is encouraged but never forced. Participants are free to share only what they feel comfortable with, and many find that opening up gradually is natural and helpful for their own growth.

6. How do online therapy groups or support groups handle difficult emotions that arise?

The therapist leading the group is trained to manage challenging emotions. They provide tools and strategies for coping, helping participants process feelings safely.

7. Can I attend online therapy groups if I’m already in individual therapy?

Yes, many people find that group therapy superbly complements individual therapy, providing additional insights and social support, thus accelerating their healing. Also, users often join group therapy for a topic that they are not focusing on in their individual therapy sessions. Often, therapists themselves recommend their clients to group therapy for a specific area of their life.

8. How do I know if a support group is right for me?

If you’re looking for shared experiences and emotional support rather than structured therapeutic guidance, a support group may be ideal. Otherwise, consider a therapy group for a more structured approach.

You can also join more than one group if you feel it will benefit you, especially if each group focuses on a different aspect of your mental health journey.
