The Need for Career Counselling

Upasana Sharma believes that choosing a career is more than just picking a subject or a job title. It’s about shaping a life path with clarity. Her counselling approach focuses on giving students the right tools and mindset to make choices that truly fit who they are by:

Opening new possibilities

Many students remain unaware of the dynamic range of career paths available today. Career counselling helps them explore options beyond the obvious, providing them with more informed knowledge to make choices rather than selecting the traditional path chosen by many.

Aligning strengths with goals

True career clarity comes when a student’s natural abilities match their aims. Through assessments and guided conversations, counselling helps young people connect what they’re good at with what excites them. This creates pathways that are both practical and fulfilling.

What Our Students Say

As a student with a B.A. in Psychology (Honours) from Vishwakarma University, Pune, I was confident about my career choice, but I wasn't sure how to take the next step. I had a keen interest in forensics, but the path to a specialized master's program abroad seemed complicated. I needed someone to help me connect my academic background with my career goals.

I went to Bodh Career and Coaching and met with Mrs. Upasana Sharma. She immediately understood my aspirations and helped me navigate the complex world of international applications. She suggested that a master's degree in Forensic Psychology was a perfect fit for my interests.

With her guidance, I successfully applied to Manchester Metropolitan University in Manchester. Mrs. Sharma helped me with everything, from refining my Statement of Purpose to preparing for interviews. I'm now pursuing my master's degree and am excited about the unique blend of psychology and law enforcement in my course. I am incredibly grateful to Mrs. Upasana Sharma for her expert advice and unwavering support, which made my dream of studying abroad a reality.

Studying Msc in Forensic Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University.

I was enrolled in the Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering program at MIT WPU, but I knew something was wrong. I had a passion for science, but the practical, application-heavy nature of engineering wasn't a good fit for me. I felt like I was just going through the motions, and my grades were starting to reflect my lack of interest.

After a few meetings with Upasana Ma’am at Bodh Career and Coaching, I felt a huge sense of relief. She listened to me without judgment and helped me realize that it was okay to change my mind. She suggested an aptitude test, and the results were an eye-opener. It became clear that my strengths and interests were in a more theoretical and research-oriented field.

Based on the results, Upasana ma’am helped me make the difficult decision to switch my course. She guided me through the entire process and helped me enroll in a Physics Honours program. It was the best decision I could have made. I'm now excelling in my studies and truly enjoying what I'm learning. I'm grateful to Upasana ma’am and Bodh for helping me find the right path.

As I was about to enter Grade 9 at Bishop's School, Undri, I felt completely overwhelmed. The choice of subjects seemed so final, and I was terrified of picking the wrong combination and missing out on future opportunities. I was particularly confused between choosing sciences and other subjects like Economics and Home Science, even though I had an interest in many different areas.

My parents decided to get me professional guidance, and that's when I met Mrs. Upasana Sharma from Bodh Career and Coaching. She was incredibly patient and helped me understand that this decision wasn't about what was "right" or "wrong" but about what was right for me.

To get a clearer picture of my strengths and potential, she had me take a series of IQ and aptitude tests. The results were a revelation. They showed that I had a natural aptitude for sciences, something I hadn't fully recognized in myself. Based on these insights, Mrs. Sharma recommended that I choose sciences instead of Economics and Home Science.

With her guidance, I made an informed decision, and I'm so glad I did. I am now enjoying my science subjects and feel confident that I've chosen a path that will give me the best options for my future. I'm no longer confused—I'm focused and excited. I highly recommend Mrs. Upasana Sharma to any student who needs help navigating this crucial phase of their academic life.

The counseling sessions with her were a safe space where I could openly discuss my fears and aspirations.

As an aspiring interior designer at BNCA College, I thought I had a clear path ahead. But after a few semesters, I started to question if I had the right aptitude for it. The practical and technical aspects were challenging, and I felt my creativity wasn't translating into the kind of work I was doing. I was worried I had made a wrong choice, and my confidence was at an all-time low. I decided to seek guidance from Mrs. Sharma at Bodh Career and Coaching. She was incredibly supportive and helped me realize that my doubts were valid. She didn't just give me generic advice. Instead, she had me take a series of aptitude tests specifically designed for creative and technical fields. The results were truly enlightening. They highlighted that my core strengths lay in conceptual design and visualization, but also showed areas where my technical skills needed work.

Based on the test results and our discussions, Mrs. Sharma helped me create a targeted plan. We focused on strengthening my weaker areas and leveraging my creative strengths. This clarity has made a huge difference. I am now more confident in my abilities, and I've found a new perspective on my studies. I am extremely grateful to Mrs. Upasana Sharma for helping me understand my own aptitude and guiding me to a path where I know I can succeed.
