Drashti Gada

I am a Sports Psychologist and Mental Health Professional with experience working with national and elite athletes across sports such as hockey, wrestling, kabaddi, rowing, athletics, and weightlifting. I help athletes build confidence, manage pressure, improve focus, and develop the mental resilience needed to perform consistently in high-performance environments.My approach is athlete-oriented and grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I focus on helping athletes understand how their thoughts and emotions influence performance, and I use practical, sport-specific strategies they can apply directly in training and competition. My goal is to create a supportive and structured space where athletes feel understood, motivated, and equipped to grow both mentally and emotionally.I hold an MA in Clinical Psychology from SNDT University and a Postgraduate Diploma in Sports Psychology from Jain University. I have worked across multiple Sports Authority of India centres and supported athletes during national camps through individual sessions, group sessions, assessments, and performance-focused interventions.My passion lies in helping athletes strengthen their mindset, overcome internal barriers, and achieve their potential with clarity and confidence.
