Renu is a certified Life Coach (ICF ACC), credentialed Professional Mentor (IMC CPM), and qualified counselling psychologist with more than a decade of experience in evidence-based approaches, supported by over 25 years in people management, business strategy, and client servicing in the UK, Singapore, and India.

She has over 1000 hours of individual counselling, coaching and mentoring experience. Additionally, she has conducted over 50 group / team workshops, talks and training programs for corporates, educational institutions and others. The profile of employees coached, counselled or trained for corporates and institutions spans the entire breadth from leadership team / senior management to junior level employees, though most of the work has been with middle/ senior levels.

She likes to adopt an integrative approach in her work, incorporating tools and techniques from different modalities such as cognitive behaviour therapy, transactional analysis, metaphor therapy and yoga as she believes this holistic mind-body approach, customised and fine-tuned to meet individual needs and personality types, not only catalyses change but is also far more transformational and enduring. Her areas of expertise include Stress & Anxiety Management, Inter-Personal Relationships, Workplace Effectiveness, Work-Life Issues, Couples Therapy and Psycho-Education.

Previous Corporate Experience

Renu worked for over 25 years in the areas of media marketing, advertising, marketing research and strategic consulting with TNS Kantar (WPP), Rediffusion DY&R, The Times of India Group and The Research Pacific Group (Singapore).

In her last corporate role with TNS Kantar, she was Executive Director, Qualitative Research & Shopper Insights in India, and prior to that as Group Director Consumer Qualitative in UK. After quitting full-time employment, she worked as an independent consultant with TNS Kantar, India for around 2 years.

Fuelled by her desire to guide and support people dealing with everyday personal and professional life issues such as stress, anxiety, burn-out, inter-personal relationships, self-doubt, low self-esteem, etc, she decided to transition from corporate life into the world of professional coaching, counselling, therapy and training for individuals and teams.
