Sohini Rohra is a counseling psychologist based in Mumbai, she has cultivated a profound understanding of the intricacies of mental health through both personal experiences and professional expertise. Raised in a multicultural environment and deeply influenced by her upbringing with a specially-abled family member, she found empathy to be the cornerstone of her practice. Her journey began not in a traditional business sphere but in the deeply human realm of emotional healing. Early in her career, she pursued a diverse range of paths before discovering her true calling in counseling psychology. It was during a period of personal struggle, while seeking her own healing, that she stumbled upon the Carkhuff Model of counseling. This was a defining moment, as it not only gave her the tools to heal herself but also ignited her passion to guide others through their own emotional turmoil.
With a Postgraduate Diploma and a Master’s in Counseling Psychology, she began her professional practice. But Sohini’s journey wasn’t just about personal healing — it was also about embracing the power within and finding the courage to share her story with the world.Her victory in the Mrs. India pageant was a pivotal moment, reclaiming her personal power and propelling her into the spotlight. This moment of empowerment led to the creation of her bestselling book, Cancelled to Crowned, a raw and honest reflection of her journey, now inspiring countless others. One of the most valuable lessons she has learned as an entrepreneur is the importance of balancing emotion and reason. The delicate equilibrium between empathy and logic, she says, is essential in both her work with clients and her personal relationships. “Finding the right balance between heart and mind is the real magic of transformation,”. Embracing this balance has been key in building her business and maintaining authentic connections with her clients, many of whom are facing emotional struggles that require deep, compassionate care. However, this deep emotional engagement also presents a challenge — the constant need to balance her professional responsibilities with her personal life. 2024 has been a transformative year for her, marked by both personal and professional growth. Writing Cancelled to Crowned allowed her to confront parts of herself that she had long buried. Through this vulnerability, she not only healed her readers but also found a deep sense of renewal within herself. She describes 2024 as “a rebirth — a beautiful transformation that made this year a landmark of growth, healing, and self-discovery.” Her vision for success is simple: to help as many people as possible rewrite the narrative they hold about themselves, guiding them toward their highest, most authentic selves.
The number of lives she touches, and the transformations she facilitates, is the true measure of her success. As an entrepreneur, her work goes beyond the conventional world of counseling. She is not just helping individuals overcome anxiety, stress, and trauma — she is empowering them to embrace their inner strength and live more authentic, fulfilled lives. Through evidence-based techniques and a holistic approach that integrates psychological principles with spiritual dimensions, she fosters emotional resilience and self-awareness in her clients. Her goal is to shift the internal narratives that keep people stuck in cycles of negativity, helping them recognize their innate power to rise, transform, and thrive. “Focus, dedication, hard work, and faith are the unshakable pillars of success.” In a world filled with distractions, especially for young minds, she advises them to stay anchored to their core values and not let fleeting obstacles derail their journey. “Success isn’t a fleeting moment,” she says, “it’s a continuous journey of growth and self-discovery.”
