Pranali Acharya

Pranali is a compassionate psychologist and holistic wellness practitioner who specializes in supporting individuals through life’s emotional challenges—with particular dedication to seniors and caregivers. With over ten years of diverse experience spanning clinical practice, academia, and international healthcare, she offers more than traditional therapy—she provides integrated mental healthcare that nurtures mind, body, and spirit.

​

Her academic credentials include a Master’s in Psychology from Fergusson College, Pune, and an MBA in Healthcare Management from the University of Findlay, Ohio—a unique combination that informs her holistic approach. Pranali’s professional journey reflects her versatility: from teaching psychology and German to serving as a geriatric psychologist at Aaji Care Assisted Living, where she provided tailored therapeutic interventions, assessments, and family counseling for elders.

​

Pranali’s practice is a thoughtful fusion of evidence-based therapies (CBT, REBT, Gestalt, trauma-informed care) and holistic healing (mindfulness, chakra work, positive psychology). As a certified Mental Health First Aid and trauma therapy practitioner, she bridges clinical rigor with soulful care. Fluent in four languages—including German—she brings cross-cultural sensitivity to every session, creating an inclusive space where clients feel understood and empowered.

​

Whether addressing stress, trauma, aging concerns, or personal growth, Pranali tailors her approach to each individual. She believes in flexible, eclectic therapy, incorporating expressive arts, narrative techniques, and even lifestyle coaching when beneficial. Beyond her professional work, she finds solace in macramé art, poetry, gardening, and travel—pursuits that fuel her own emotional balance and creativity.

​

In Pranali’s words:
"I’m an empath with healthy boundaries—and I love helping clients cultivate the same. Therapy should be a space for self-compassion, awareness, and practical growth. My goal is to make healing feel accessible, personalized, and deeply transformative."
