Since 2023, Saranya has been providing evidence-based therapeutic care, behavioural interventions, and counselling to children, adolescents, and adults. She works with individuals experiencing anxiety, stress, emotional burnout, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions, while also offering specialized support for neurodevelopmental conditions, including ADHD, autism, and intellectual disabilities. Her practice includes behaviour therapy, parental guidance, and psychoeducation tailored to each individual's needs.
Saranya adopts an integrative therapeutic approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and humanistic principles.

Therapy Bookings: Terms & Conditions
Sessions coordinated directly with the therapist
Once you book a session with a therapist via SoulUp, we put you in touch with them via WhatsApp allowing you and your therapist to coordinate on a mutually convenient time.
Cancellation policy
You can reschedule or cancel sessions or switch therapists upto 24 hours of the slotted time, post which no rescheduling or refund of sessions is possible.
Late to session policy
If you are over 15 mins late to the session, then the session will be held cancelled and no refund will be available. This has been done to ensure a 'full' session for you as well as to ensure enough gap-time for the therapist before their next session.
Cancelling part of a bundled session
For sessions bought as bundle of 4 at discounted price - if after n sessions, either the therapist or the client wants to discontinue sessions, we initiate refund of remaining sessions. In this case, the actual non-discounted price is deducted for each completed session (instead of the pro-rata amount per session) from the price of the bundled offering and the refund is issued.
