My name is Manasi Gaikwad, and I hold a Master’s degree in Applied Psychology from Coventry University.
My academic and professional journey has been centred around understanding human behaviour, emotional resilience, and the complexities of mental health. Through my work and studies, I have had the opportunity to support individuals navigating challenges related to emotional distress, substance misuse, and recovery.
My experience in mental health settings has taught me that behind every struggle is a human story that deserves understanding rather than judgment.
I believe that empathy, openness, and curiosity are essential in supporting emotional wellbeing. Psychology has not only shaped my professional path but also the way I understand people, relationships, and the inner world we all carry.
Through this blog, I hope to share perspectives that encourage self-reflection, emotional awareness, and a deeper understanding of the mind.
