Namastey, My name is Anindita Dey-Sinha. I was born and raised in India. I am a practising Hindu and have a strong sense of my own cultural identity. New Zealand has been my home since the past 25 years. I am based in Tamahere, Hamilton, and work on weekdays and half days on Saturdays.  I have experience in working cross culturally with Indians, New Zealand Māori, Samoan and New Zealand Europeans. I have immense respect for the diverse cultural heritage of people. I feel incredibly privileged to pursue an area of work which is my passion. I acknowledge your strength to be open and vulnerable as you allow me to support you to navigate the grief and loss journey to heal and honour your loved one. I am drawn to this area of work as I believe as a community it is our moral responsibility to support whanau to vocalise their experiences, process their feelings in a sacred, safe space that honours their loved ones.
