Summary

I am an aspiring forensic psychologist with a strong background in psychology and hands-on experience through internships at Socially Souled, QPR Institute, and the World Brain Centre. I have developed skills in analytical thinking and crisis intervention, with a focus on recognizing psychological distress cues and connecting individuals to appropriate resources. During my time at the World Brain Centre, I actively participated in IPD (Inpatient Department) rounds and observed OPD (Outpatient Department) sessions, where I also administered psychometric assessments under supervision. My volunteer work has deepened my understanding of community mental health needs and effective support strategies. I am passionate about applying psychological principles within the legal and forensic framework to improve mental health support and make a meaningful impact.
