Ravindran Sadanandan

I believe, with my knowledge and experiences in this field as a Counsellor, and as an active Community Partner with various social service agencies, I will serve our society’s and our community’s best interests in developing a culture of recovery and resilience by providing qualitative person-centric rehabilitation and reintegration through innovation, teamwork, and community support. Having the humbling opportunity of working with families that face challenging homeostasis, has reinforced my belief and my zest to empathise, influence, and support families in sticking together through thick and thin. With my experience as a Practitioner working with various family profiles, it is my forte to adopt a family-centric strength-based approach, in navigating families through challenging trajectories and supporting family-reconciliation pursuits.
