About Sushmita

(for kids and teens)

Hey there! I'm Sushmita, your friendly adventure-loving psychologist 🌟

You know what I love? Exploring the great outdoors, finding hidden treasures, and going on epic adventures! 🌲 But I also enjoy cosy nights in, snuggled up with a good book or watching fun shows on Netflix πŸ“šπŸΏ

When I'm not out exploring or relaxing, I'm getting my hands messy with artsy crafts and baking yummy treats in the kitchen! 🎨πŸͺ And did I mention I love discovering new places, especially cool brunch spots with delicious food? πŸ˜‹

But do you want to know something really cool? I became a psychologist because I LOVE helping kids like you feel awesome and confident! πŸ’ͺ When I was younger, I learned all about how people think, feel, and behave, and I knew I wanted to use that knowledge to make the world a better place for kids 🌈

I'm here to help kids and teens who might be feeling a bit nervous or worried, or maybe just need someone to talk to. Whether it's dealing with big feelings, making new friends, or figuring out tricky stuff, I'm here to listen πŸ’–

So if you ever need a friend to talk to or just want to hang out and have some fun, I'm here for you! Let's go on this awesome adventure together and make some magical memories along the way! 🌟
