About Nithya J Rao

A certified rehabilitation psychologist working with young adults, and entrepreneurs I offer psychotherapy for those dealing with trauma, abuse, loss, and death. I work in the spaces of self-expression, business coaching, entrepreneurship, event management, and innovation. I graduated with a Bachelor\'s degree in Theatre, Literature & Psychology followed by a Master’s degree in Psychosocial Rehabilitation and Counseling from Richmond Fellowship SocietyAt Heart It Out I design the bridge between knowledge- practice gap that exists in Mental Health Practice in Urban India and through technology and data-driven practices to deliver effective community mental health. As the co-creator of Lahe Lahe, a performing arts space previously and one of the founding members of Katharsis Productions, a theatre production house, I bring in diversity, authenticity and a human-centred approach to my work. By 2040, I want to retire with a couple of cats. Until then, I\'d like to make a dent, without haste, and without pause
