Personal Statement

Psychology both as an academic and professional discipline has been close to my heart.

Understanding the behavior of people and attempting to understand its possible reasons have

always been fascinating to me. Having understood the possible reasons of their behavior, I

have always been tempted to help them modifying their behaviors for their effective living.

My interest lies initially to understand and treat the behavioral anomalies and

psychopathology using theories of psychology. My professional training in Clinical

Psychology has equipped me with clinical skills to provide services to people who require

professional help. It gives me immense pleasure when I am able to execute psychology into

clinical practice and decrease people’s suffering and improve their well-being. Having

worked with people with psychopathology has helped me learning to work on building their

strengths. I now envision to see psychology helping to foster happiness in people, build

happy institutions/groups, and communities. I would personally like to make this planet a

better place to live using my academic and professional discipline so that people flourish on

earth.

As is evident from my CV, the amount of work I am actively involved in through my

publications and practical use of my discipline. The interdisciplinary approach is required to

work building positive human behavior.
