How I Work

This is not your typical coaching.

Whether you're mid-unraveling, finding your footing between careers, rebuilding after an exit, or just quietly navigating one of life's bigger transitions - we start from wherever you actually are.

I use proven methodologies to drastically improve sense of purpose, empowering you take meaningful action and create lasting change in your life.

  • 50-minute sessions, weekly or fortnightly
  • Tools drawn from neuroscience and behaviour change research, so the patterns actually shift rather than getting renamed
  • Internal Family Systems for body-based work, and established psychological frameworks
  • Nervous system practices, so you can make decisions from a settled place rather than an urgent one
  • Reflection prompts and exercises between sessions
  • A collaborative partnership - I'm not handing you a plan, we're working it out together

What I believe

My manifesto
What I truly belive in

  • Success without fulfillment is an empty pursuit. Achievement alone cannot bring peace.
  • Cultural and family scripts shape us, but they do not define us. We have the power to rewrite them.
  • Patterns of perfection, overthinking, and striving once protected us. Now they can evolve.
  • Real transformation begins with honesty - meeting ourselves exactly where we are.
  • The mind can analyze endlessly, but the body holds the truth of what we carry.
  • Ambition does not need to be abandoned. It needs to be reimagined.
  • Healing is not about becoming someone else. It is about remembering who we already are.

Client experiences

What my clients
are saying

“Malleeka used some amazing practices to understand the patterns I was carrying. She helped me see that my professional problem was actually a much bigger pattern problem. Past two months with her have felt like two years of therapy.”

Marcus L.

Strategy Lead, OpenAI

“Working with Malleeka helped me realize how I spent my whole life doing what made sense to my family. I came not really believing anything could shift - I'd done therapy, I'd read a lot of self-help books. But her way of working is super action oriented and mixed with the somatic work is absolutely amazing.”

Arjun M.

Engineering Lead, Google

“I came to Malleeka after a co-founder breakup that was devastating for me. We've been working on the grief about the relationship but also the bigger realisations that I had been living for other people's approval my entire adult life. It's really the safe space I come back to every week.”

Sofia T.

Co-founder, Revolution AI

“I've been doing therapy for 5 years but working with Malleeka has moved things so much faster. She's helped me see how far I had drifted from myself while overworking. Her actionable frameworks and practices have changed my life. Like seriously!”

Camille R.

Senior Director of Operations, Stripe

“I've been going through a phase of uncertainty after my company exit. And working with Malleeka on purpose has given me the ability to sit with the question of uncertainity without panicking. I finally feel like I'm building something from a place that's actually feels good to me.”

Armin G.

Co-founder, Systalize

“I started working with Malleeka after I got laid off in January and my first instinct was to immediately find the next thing. Malleeka helped me slow down before I jumped to my next job and find something that fulfills me. Working with her has changed how I look at my career - and what to actually do about it.”

Frequently asked
questions

I draw on principles from neuroscience, psychological frameworks like IFS, somatic processing, Eastern practices, and behavioral change science (including my training with Dr. Alok Kanojia's Healthy Gamer GG). But the work isn't about applying a fixed method. It's about helping you accurately see what's happening beneath your patterns - your decisions, emotional responses, and inner conflicts - as they unfold in real time.

At times, I may offer structured prompts, frameworks, or reflections to shift how you think. At other times, we slow things down and stay with your experience, allowing insights to emerge from a deeper level than your habitual thought patterns.

Some sessions lead to immediate clarity and direction. Others work more gradually - helping you recognize patterns, shifts, and truths that have been present but not fully seen.

For some people, the first few sessions bring a palpable shift - in awareness, in their nervous system, in how they're relating to what they've been carrying. For others, change accumulates more gradually over weeks and months of consistent engagement. This process doesn't follow a linear timeline. It moves in layers: awareness, insight, experimentation, integration, and then deeper layers of awareness again.

My coaching sessions are typically 50 minutes. I also offer 90 minute sessions, which gives us space to slow down, go beneath surface-level conversations, and stay with what wants to be explored without rushing.

I offer sessions both on a per-session basis and through longer-term packages, depending on the level of support you're looking for. Individual coaching sessions are $175 USD for 50 minutes. I also offer a sliding scale and different package options, and I always try to be mindful of people's financial realities and what feels sustainable and supportive for them financially.

Sessions are deducted as attended, and missed sessions are counted as used sessions.

I also offer a complimentary 20-minute discovery call so we can connect, explore what you're looking for, and see whether working together feels aligned for both of us.

If you feel you've met your goals or would like to end your coaching package early, I will refund 100% for paid sessions that you didn't use. Attended and missed sessions are nonrefundable. Cancellation requires at least 24 hours' notice to allow the time to be offered to someone else.
