About Me
My Approach
As a counselling therapist and relationship coach, I offer a safe space to explore your emotions, gain clarity, and build healthier relationships. My work combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with real-life insights, guiding individuals toward self-awareness, emotional strength, and empowered decision-making.
Relationships shape who we are. They bring love, growth, and connection, but they can also challenge us in unexpected ways. Whether you are preparing for marriage, struggling within a relationship, or facing its end, you deserve guidance that is both compassionate and practical.
Hi, I am Garima Kohli .​
At Divided Dreams, I offer:
Pre-Marital Counselling – Helping individuals prepare for a strong relationship and healthy marriage.
​
Marital Counselling – Supporting individuals facing communication issues, conflicts, and emotional disconnect.
​
Divorce Counselling – Guiding those experiencing separation, divorce, and post-divorce healing.

I believe that with the right support, you can move from confusion to clarity, from pain to healing, and from uncertainty to empowerment.
My Journey
2011-2019
Building My Expertise in Psychology
With a Master’s in Psychology and a B.A. (Hons) in Psychology from Delhi University, I dedicated years to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. I worked as a counselling psychologist in private practice, a school counselor, and a behavior psychologist for an Ed-Tech company. I also trained underprivileged adolescents in life skills at The Shrink.
Through these experiences, I supported people in their most vulnerable moments, helping them through emotional turmoil, uncertainty, and personal crises—laying the foundation for the deep, empathetic work I do today.
2019-2021
My Own Personal Crossroads
In 2019, I entered marriage with hope and excitement, only to realize I was trapped in a cycle of neglect and abuse from a narcissist. Like many, I held onto hope, trying to make it work—until I had to make the hardest yet most liberating decision of my life: choosing myself.
The journey from realization to divorce in 2021 was my most painful lesson in resilience. Divorce is often lonely, even when surrounded by well-meaning friends and family. Unless someone has walked this path, they can never truly understand the emotional, legal, and mental toll it takes.
2022
Finding Healing Through Melting Stories
After my divorce, I wasn’t ready to return to therapy practice—I had lost parts of myself in the fight for my freedom. Instead, I turned to fragrance and self-care, which led to the creation of Melting Stories. I founded this scented candle and fragrance brand as a personal catharsis- a way to channel my emotions and energy into something therapeutic. The products I created were designed to help others feel better, and to provide comfort and healing through scent. (If you’d like to explore, click here.)
This journey wasn’t just about emotional healing; it also marked the beginning of my financial empowerment. Through Melting Stories, I was able to build a business from the ground up, creating a source of income that not only gave me financial stability but also reinforced my sense of personal strength.
Growing the business gave me a renewed sense of purpose, independence, and confidence-empowering me to take control of my future in a way I never imagined.
2023
Present : The Birth of Divided Dreams
Having emerged stronger, I knew my purpose—helping others navigate the emotional upheaval of relationships, whether they are in pre-marital, marital, or post-divorce phases.
Through Divided Dreams, I now dedicate myself to coaching individuals through relationship complexities, emotional abuse, and the pain of separation—so they don’t have to walk this path alone.
If you are struggling with a relationship, feeling uncertain about your marriage, or navigating a painful divorce, I’m here to support you in finding clarity, strength, and healing.
