Beyond Buoyance

BEYOND BUOYANCE – the name

Life is full of crests and troughs and we all have to keep afloat. When caught in these, it becomes challenging to move forward. At that moment, one needs a buoyant force to help rise beyond these hurdles. Afterall, life is all about crossing these hurdles successfully. There may be times when one feels unable to handle one’s emotions, fulfill one’s needs, cope up with ever creeping demands, desires and expectations from self & society, and lead a happy, satisfying life. This is then one needs an upthrust; a “buoyant force” to sail through one’s conflicts and rise above. Beyond Buoyance takes one beyond the state of afloat … towards self actualization and self appreciation!

Beyond Buoyance was founded by Ms. Renu Garg, a trained and certified counsellor and psychologist. We offer Psychological Counselling, Guidance, Career Assessment and Guidance, and Remedial Intervention for Learning difficulty issues.

We are a team of well qualified and trained counsellors and pyschologists. We work closely with the clients to understand their areas of concern , diagnose them using effective pyschological testing/ techniques and help them in dealing with their issues. Usually our counselling services involve one-to-one sessions between client and psychologist/ counsellor, but depending on the need, some are conducted in group including family. All our counselling sessions are confidential in nature.

MEET OUR FOUNDER

We all have been given guidance ever since we can recall by our elders, teachers, and even peers from time to time on various matters ranging from personal, social, emotional to educational and even career. It has been observed that guidance sometimes takes the shape of “advice giving” wherein the person giving guidance is relying purely on his/ her personal experiences and choices. What an individual actually needs is the right guidance imparted by the right persons with requisite skills and knowledge in the areas to be addressed. It is important to identify the individual’s needs, strengths, limitations, and intellectual capacity to provide appropriate guidance. At beyond buoyance, a team of professionals take the responsibility of guiding and counselling individuals.

“Beyond Buoyance” helps one become aware and rise from their current state of conflict, be it psychosocial, emotional, academic, or career related. It provides the requisite up thrust to enable one to recognize their strengths and weaknesses, become aware and own up their problems or concerns, learn life skills, develop confidence, and be able to make suitable decisions in life.

The world we live in has a plethora of opportunities to offer us and each individual has a storehouse of untapped potential in himself/herself. “Beyond Buoyance” helps one join the dots and support him/her till they are able to go with the flow and rise.

“Counselling is an accepting, trusting and safe relationship in which clients learn to discuss openly what worries and upsets them, to define precise behaviour goals, to acquire the essential social skills and to develop the courage and self confidence to implement desired new behaviour”

Choosing stream subjects is the foundation milestone in a student’s life which often decides the future of his/her career. While there are some children who know exactly what they want to do and are confident about their choices, most are either clueless or confused.  At this young age, students are required to make this most important decision of their lives without having any idea about the concept of career or work life. Thus, for most of them, choosing the right career seems like a daunting task. There may be countless opportunities waiting for them in the future, but the path to those choices is not clear due to the lack of knowledge of careers and courses available.

With proper guidance, a student can choose subjects that enable him/her to work to his/her strengths, challenge to make the most of his/her capabilities and something he/she is genuinely interested in and enjoy learning.  This is a decision which the student and the parents must make together.  To help make such crucial decisions and ensure that the student does not close any doors of opportunity, the right professional help is much needed.

When working with us, students can ensure that they will be given accurate assessment and professional guidance by a trained Career Counsellor to help choose a career best fit for his/her interest and capabilities, leading them from being in a state of conflict and confusion to a clear vision so that they can take this major decision of their lives with confidence.

When children make the right career choice, love the work they do, feel motivated and energized, they grow up to be confident adults, and will likely be successful in their work life
