“I take this opportunity to thank God for enabling me to take a break from my busy schedule and enroll myself in UIM to do Post Graduate Diploma in Family and Marriage Counseling (PGDFMC). This course helped me to equip myself in knowing different counseling skills and enhanced my knowledge in counseling. It is an effective tool first of all for self-realization and inner healing. This course enabled me to find peace within; as a result there is peace and joy among family members and it also taught me to face stormy situation with confidence knowing my anchor is my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Consequently, I want to exercise my learning with those who are struggling with parental conflicts; various issues in marriage relationship; children with behavioral issues at school and home etc.

I am highly indebted to Mrs. Olive Nagarajan for her constant guidance and supervision as well as for providing necessary inputs at the right time. I would also like to thank Mrs. Sajitha Varughese for helping me with personal counsel. My heartfelt thanks to the efficient management at UIM and all other faculty, for enabling me to successfully complete the course with their support.”
