I was really underconfident after finished my masters felt lost and unprepared to actually work with a real client. This course has been a blessing honestly, not just professionally but personally as well. I have had the opportunity to work on myself while learning how to help clients with all kinds of concerns. Trauma-informed practice is the need of the hour and i take pride in learning from the best! Thankful to my trainer - Dr. Shilpa and the mentors for constant guidance and support.

In the 2 days of in person training i have learnt a lot of new techniques and got personal breakthroughs and i would really suggest people to have this hands on experience. Dr Shilpa and the team - Aayushi, Eti have been really helpful and cleared all my doubts, were so helpful. I would suggest all the people specially budding psychologists to reach out and connect here.

The training was very insightful for me and it was very empowering. Because i got to know a lot of issues that were underlying or under the surface for me to be cognitively aware. I learnt skills that i can apply in therapy sessions and also to resolve the issues that i have been facing.

First internship and i would never want to do it any other way. the most amazing experience of my life in this field yet and the people i met from the mentors to my batchmates, i just love everyone so much. the first day at emoaid was nerve wracking
but the mentors broke the ice so easily and gave us a safe space since the very first day.
Every session, every question, every answer, everything taught me something and left me
with so much more to think about. i can't thank the entire Emoaid team enough for making this experience an unforgettable one for me.
