"People Experience Corner started out of a need to create a space where internationals and immigrants felt like their experiences and challenges were truly understood in a foreign culture "
Our Background
From my experience of working with startups, providing counselling and teaching at university, I found it important to bridge the gap between individual wellbeing and the advancement of organisations and society.
To work towards this, in July 2023, I decided to combine my 4 years of experience as a psychology and mental health professional under the umbrella of People Experience Corner.
Our
Story
Hi, I'm Vini and I am a mental health professional from India.
I moved to Sweden as a student in 2020, in the middle of the pandemic. While I felt happy to have achieved my goal and felt lucky to be in Sweden, I soon started feeling a mix of emotions that I found difficult to deal with. The counsellors at the university were able to help to some extent but it still felt like something was missing somewhere. I heard similar experiences from my fellow international students as well.​
I met several internationals and immigrants who were also experiencing severe stress and were looking for mental health professionals who could understand their struggles & perspectives.
I realised that people want to be seen and want their experiences to be understood - be it as a parent, a partner, a job seeker, a founder or business owner.
