Leela d/o Balan
​
Leela, a placement practitioner at Thrive Psychology Clinic, is also a therapist-in-training from The School of Positive Psychology (TSPP).
Leela has worked in a wide range of fields, mainly healthcare, banking, and admin sectors. It was during those times that she got to see how the mind gets affected when pushed through extreme stress or challenges. However, it was also during the same period that she noticed how the human mind is connected to the body and how the mind affects the body, and vice versa.
Her recent graduation in a Psychotherapy Course further opened up this interest in the mind-body connection and has led her to explore this field further, prompting a career switch. Additionally, being a full-time caregiver for her parent made her realize the importance of self-care and the need to prioritize the limited time available for oneself. She hopes to impart this crucial information to those who come into contact with her in the near future.

Having seen how the body, despite going through challenges, is able to recover with the right amount of time and understanding, she hopes to share this valuable information with her clients in the future so that they too can maintain faith and heal both the body and the mind together.
