About me

I’m a client-centered psychologist working with individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that may be causing distress or disconnection. Humans are built to feel the pain of disconnection acutely, affecting all areas of our lives. To help couples move from disconnection to reconnection is a deeply meaningful work for me.  I work from a systemic and attachment lens, paying close attention to how early relational experiences shape the way we connect- with ourselves and with others. My approach is grounded in compassion, cultural sensitivity, and deep respect for your lived experience.

I view therapy as a partnership - a safe space to process pain and a creative space to imagine what’s possible. My role is to walk alongside you, explore old patterns, ask meaningful questions, and help you reconnect with parts of yourself that already carry wisdom, resilience, and potential. I tailor each session to your unique experiences, needs, and pace, and meet you exactly where you are - without judgment. You don’t have to figure it out all alone..  My practice is integrative. I’m trauma-informed and trained in modalities including EFT, SFBT, the Gottman Method, CBT and mindfulness-based approaches. I incorporate systems thinking and genograms to better understand the broader context of your life.  Outside of therapy, I’m deeply curious about the world. I love reading, I’m part of a book club, and I find inspiration in human psychology, nature and sustainable living.

Note : Sonali currently works with clients up to 50 years of age.

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.
