Psychologist | Bach Flower Mentor | Corporate Healer | Parenting Specialist | Relationship Coach | Spiritual Healer

There are times when emotional struggles often remain invisible but instead of relaxing Dr. Soundarya Krishnamoorthy has dedicated her life to making emotional well-being both accessible and respected. She is a civil engineer by qualification and a healer by calling, her journey reflects deep sense of courage, inner clarity, and a deep commitment to addressing emotional roots rather than surface symptoms. With over 15 years of experience, she stands today as the Founder of Thyself Bach Flower Tamil Nadu, India’s first dedicated Bach Flower Therapy and training centre, that is shaping lives across families, individuals and organisations.
“Emotional intelligence is the real power behind conscious living,” as she reflects—words that define not just her philosophy, but her life’s work.

Listening to the Inner Calling: A Personal Turning Point

Dr.Soundarya’s entry into the field of emotional healing did not begin in classrooms or clinics—it began within. In 2010, a deeply personal experience revealed to her how profoundly emotions influence physical health, relationships, and life choices. Witnessing people silently carry emotional burdens, she felt a strong inner responsibility to create a space that was scientific, ethical, and deeply human.
Thats when she decided to leave behind a structured career in civil engineering. This decision was not so easy it meant stepping away from societal expectations and trusting an inner voice when external validation was absent out there. Yet, that decision marked the beginning of her journey rooted in purpose rather than predictability. One that continues to touch lives every day.

From Engineering to Emotional Intelligence: A Journey of Reinvention

Dr. Soundarya’s professional evolution has been organic and deeply interconnected. Over the years, she became an author, Early Literacy Specialist, play therapist, psychologist, and emotional wellness coach. Each role strengthened her understanding of how emotional patterns develop early and repeat unless consciously healed.She expresses that while working with children taught her lots about emotions form long before language. Supporting adolescents and adults revealed how unresolved emotional imprints shape relationships and self-worth.The integration of Bach Flower Therapy allowed her to address emotional causes at their roots aligning perfectly with her belief that lasting change begins within.

Her work has since resulted in:

• Healing over 1,000 individuals with consistent positive emotional transformations
• Training and mentoring healers, parents, teachers, and professionals globally
• Establishing India’s first IPHM (UK) accredited Bach Flower Therapy training centre
• Launching the Thyself Bach Flower App for therapy access, education, and practitioner support
An Honorary Doctorate in Alternative Medicine and over 10 national awards followed—not as a pursuit, but as recognition of consistent, ethical service.

Challenges That Strengthened Purpose

Every meaningful journey encounters resistance, and Dr.Soundarya’s path was no exception. Introducing Bach Flower Therapy in India during a time when emotional healing was misunderstood demanded patience and conviction.Educating people to look beyond visible symptoms toward emotional causes required slow, steady mindset shifts.
Balancing entrepreneurship, motherhood, continuous learning, and a growing organisation tested her endurance. Scaling her work while preserving personal connection with each client required emotional discipline and clarity. Yet, each challenge refined her leadership—making it more compassionate, grounded, and authentic.

Values That Shape Her Work

At the core of Dr. Soundarya’s practice lies integrity and Trust, for her, is non-negotiable. She maintains a very ethical and transparent conduct of healing.
Compassion guides her interactions, ensuring that individuals feel seen rather than judged.She views service as responsibility—not transaction—and remains committed to lifelong learning so her work evolves alongside emotional science and societal needs. Above all, she places family at the centre, believing emotional safety begins at home and extends outward into society.

Motivation Rooted in Transformation
What keeps her moving forward is not recognition, but real change. A peaceful household restored, an anxious mind calmed, a child regaining emotional confidence—these moments renew her sense of purpose.
“Transformation is my fuel,” she says, describing the quiet power of seeing lives regain balance and clarity.

Creating Balance Through her Conscious Living

For Dr. Soundarya, balance is intentional. She maintains clear emotional boundaries that allow her to serve deeply without carrying emotional baggage home. Mindful routines, delegation, and strong team support ensure sustainability. Throughout her journey daughter remains greatest teacher constantly reminding her to live the emotional awareness.

Building Emotionally Aware Communities

Her current initiatives reflect a layered approach to emotional wellness:

• Thyself Emotional Solutions addressing overthinking, anger, sleep, exam fear, and decision-making
• Family EQ Formula, a six-module program strengthening emotional safety and communication
• Corporate Emotional Wellness Workshops integrating emotional intelligence into leadership
• Youth programs supporting emotional regulation and digital responsibility
• Bach Flower Foundation Courses for ethical practitioner training
Her vision is clear: emotionally aware individuals within every family.

A Future Anchored in Purpose

Looking ahead, Dr. Soundarya plans to establish a dedicated Emotional Wellness Centre in Tamil Nadu, publish books on emotional mastery, and train over 10,000 individuals in emotional intelligence. Her long-term aspiration is to position India as a global centre for conscious emotional healing—where emotional well-being is a life skill, not a crisis response.
