Shweta Kawaatra, who is best known for her stint as Pallavi in Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii, seems to have immersed herself into motherhood apart from a few acting stints here and there. We have learnt that the actress has also turned counsellor. She shares, “I’m not a practicing counsellor yet. I plan to study further and eventually take up counselling as a practice and balance it with my primary profession — acting.”
The actress has a certification in personal counselling, one in conscious parenting and a double certification in Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT). Talking about her plans to pursue Masters in the subject, she says, “Earlier, I didn’t even know the difference between a counsellor, a psychologist and a psychiatrist, but now I’m better equipped. Counselling is a huge responsibility as you are dealing with a human mind. If a counsellor is not equipped with proper education and experience, he/she will make the patient sicker than before. So, I’ve chosen the conventional route. I started pursuing parenting courses officially in 2020.”
