Dr. Sayali Parab

Sayali is an Occupational Therapist with over a decade of experience working in the field of Pediatrics and Mental Health. She has completed her Diploma in Narrative Therapy, Diploma In Children’s Picture Books and is a Master trainer of the Ubuntu program.

Over the years, Sayali has had the opportunity to work with children with diverse developmental and learning needs. Her work is rooted in the belief that every child has their own strengths, interests, personality, and way of learning.

She loves using books, characters, imagination, and storytelling in therapy. For her, a picture book can become so much more than a story, it can open conversations, create opportunities for play, build skills, support emotional expression, and make learning feel exciting and meaningful.

Alongside her clinical work, Sayali is passionate about mentoring professionals, caregivers, community workers, teachers and developing training programs. She loves creating learning spaces where people can ask questions, think differently, laugh a little, and connect what they learn to real clinical situations.

She brings a sense of playfulness and joy into the way she works, because she believes meaningful work does not always have to feel serious.

She feels blessed to do work that allows her to keep learning, keep creating, keep laughing, and keep walking alongside children, families, and fellow professionals on their journeys.
