Work with me

Pause - Process - Progress

If the plan doesn't work,

change the plan, never the goal!

Life coaching is a direct and focused approach to lay steppingstones to your desired goals and life holistically.

Working towards a goal should never feel like a daunting task that must be accomplished in a short amount of time with a ton of work to do. To put it simply, a meaningful goal is anything that increases your happiness, self-assurance, and sense of accomplishment at every step taken towards it. It’s all in the mindset. 

I can help you identify your core values and work through your limiting beliefs that are holding you back from your progress!

Always remember why you started in the first place and

trust the journey.

What my clients say

We are grateful beyond measure for the productive sessions which has had a very good impact on Hamdan, both personally and academically. Thank you for being our son's coach, motivator, guide as well as a friend. You provided him with the space he was seeking so he could talk to you about his feelings. You evolved into his closest companion. You transformed him from a frustrated person into our beloved older child. He is more goal oriented, focused and disciplined, much calmer in situations. He has improved with his writing skills as well! May God bless you to continue to help many more children to visualize their future!

Dear Priya, I don’t know where to start, I’m grateful for your continued support and guidance to my daughter. You have taught her how to overcome her emotional struggles, how to improve her thinking methods and how to solve dilemmas by constructive thinking. With your support, our daughter shined and became more socially interactive. Her self-confidence increased and she started to depend more and more on herself. She started organizing her commitment to studying and completing her homework. Having good habits even during her spare time like building Lego, jogging, drawing and sometimes reading. Additionally, thinking and organizing her goals and priorities. By pushing her in your own professional way, her mood improved and became more optimistic and realistic. She loves her sessions with you and always looks forward to them. I must admit that this was hard for me too in the beginning. Letting someone guide me on how to deal, approach and discuss issues related to my daughter but it was a huge beneficiary different learning curve with your guidance and advises. In our journey with our daughter, great blessings have helped us coincidently meet and work with professional people to support her with her struggles. Priya, you have been one of these blessings and we are forever grateful for your efforts, guidance, and support. Don’t know how to thank you enough…

It is amazing how Priya brings this empathy and compassion into our sessions. She creates a comforting and trusting atmosphere where I can be vulnerable and open up deeply. Priya's curiosity and intuition enabled me to self explore and discover my hidden thoughts, feelings and beliefs. At the end of each session, I walk away with some new learnings and clarity about myself that I can practically integrate into my life. I feel authentically empowered in my personal growth. I can wholeheartedly recommend partnering with Priya!

Before I met Priya I had many issues, including being very conscious of everything I did, lack of organisation, having very limited verbal expression and being rigid. I was stubborn and not taking care of myself or being lazy to do my work. Ialways had to have someone remind me to do things. Working with Priya really helped me be more aware of these issues and learn how I can tackle them. With a proper plan and the new techniques, I was finally able to tackle my issues and started seeing noticeable changes in myself. I'm way more independent and organised now. I do things myself and not rely on anyone to tell me anything. I started feeling more comfortable and expressing myself more with people and spoke with more verbal expression than i have before. I feel more comfortable to approach teacher now and ask for assistance if I need anything. Thank you Priya!

J.A, 17 Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

I started my coaching journey about 4 months back in March. Looking back at how far I've come makes me immensely proud of my growth. When I started, I was in a very dark place and almost felt lost. The sessions helped me remember who I am, what my strengths are, and implement them in my daily life. Comparing myself to 4 months prior, I can proudly say that I'm much more confident and self-aware. The sessions helped me to find my goals in life and stay on the right path to achieve them. Thank you Priya for all the help and support. Having a person you can trust and speak freely is super important. I could feel the connection between us right from the start and most importantly, thank you for helping me become who I am now.

Priya is a generous and a thoughtful coach. She creates a calm and warm environment; and assures I feel at ease and comfortable during our sessions. She is a great listener; I feel heard, supported & challenged to increase my self-awareness to develop new perspectives towards my issues. Over the past year, we have been working on my action plans to improve my self-esteem and my general well-being. I highly recommend Priya as a coach and a sparring partner!

Thankful and grateful for having Priya’s support, she has been a great facilitaor in getting across my thoughts over to W.T. also she helped picking him up from his dark thoughts then equipping him with the necessary mind tools to stand up in front of his own dark shadow. His sense of responsibility elevated, his confidence is filling up the space he enters and he even grew taller! What a great impact on physical postures! Priya was always attentively listening to my comments as a parent, seeking my observations, having her door open to hear any incident happening and moerover guiding me on best way to address issues of concern with W.T. so it is a constructive dialouge rather than a fight! I love how he became more assertive in vocalising how he feels/ what he likes/ what he finds unfair/ when he needs help/ justify his choices. I consider Priya my family guardian angel.

Priya was my coach over several months while I was dealing with a difficult family issue. She helped me look at the situation from different perspectives, as well as identify what my priorities were at that point in my life. The growth I experienced with her capable coaching was so important for me to find my authentic self. I am now facing this family issue with more love and patience, while I also honor my authentic boundaries. I will definitely re-engage with Priya the next time I need her kind, sincere and strong support.

Priya helped me gain insight into important decisions I had to make. This enabled me to move forward quicker than I would have been able to if I were trying to weigh the outcomes on my own. She is observant, genuine, and direct; but most importantly has a passion for helping others. If you are looking for clarity, Priya is your coach!

You are truly an exceptional coach! Your genuine care, understanding, and compassion both during and in between our sessions have made it a smooth journey for me. I appreciate your versatility as a professional coach, a thought partner, and a motivating friend. You bring great communication, professionalism, and quality to your work – which has impacted our sessions in a positive way. Thank you for being a good listener and for creating a safe yet challenging and fun environment. You have helped me to clarify my values and limiting beliefs and to clearly define my priorities and articulate a future vision based on the foundation we have built. I deeply value the time we’ve spent together and the progress you have helped me make towards achieving my goals. Your ability to see the whole person with the obvious and the not-so-obvious makes you a special coach. I would highly recommend you dear Priya wholeheartedly. Thank you for your continued support and guidance!
