Mamta Verma is a dedicated psychologist with over 13 years of experience working across diverse areas of mental health and well-being, with a strong focus on adolescents, young people, and their families. She has worked closely with youth in schools, community settings, structured therapy environments, and digital mental health platforms. Over the years, her passion for youth and parenting groups has grown from witnessing how safe, peer-based spaces can significantly strengthen emotional regulation, self-expression, and resilience during adolescence.
Through her work in school mental health programs, group-based adolescent interventions, and helpline-based support services, Mamta has observed how emotional difficulties in young people are deeply influenced by family dynamics, peer relationships, academic stress, and communication patterns at home and with friends. Alongside direct therapeutic work with adolescents, she actively works with parents to foster responsive caregiving, emotional attunement, and effective behaviour support. She is trained in Psychological First Aid, Suicide First Aid, CBT, mindfulness-based approaches, and has facilitated Covid-19 well-being and support groups.
At SoulUp, Mamta will be facilitating the Parenting Teens Support Group, bringing a warm, reflective, and developmentally sensitive approach. She believes that support groups offer a powerful space for connection, learning, and shared understanding, and finds this work deeply meaningful because she has consistently seen how receiving the right support at the right time can make a lasting difference.
