In her professional career, she had the privilege of serving as Faculty in the Department of Psychiatry at GMCH, Chandigarh. Her 16 years of experience as a mental health professional encompass a wide range of roles, including Principal, Academician, and Researcher at a reputed university. For nearly a decade in academia, she counseled numerous college students and came to an important realization: many behavioral problems in adolescence stem from the extremes of parenting—whether it be over-parenting or absent parenting. She observed that high-risk behaviors such as suicidal tendencies, drug abuse, risky sexual behavior, overspending, and conflicts with parents often arise from issues like low self-esteem, frustration, lack of self-discipline, and poor decision-making skills. These crucial life skills are typically developed during a child’s formative years, and when parenting is not well-balanced, it can lead to significant challenges in adolescence.
