Boss Naari

Dnyanada Madan: Founder & CEO

Education:- MSc, Neuroscience

The idea for Boss Naari came from my own search for meaningful impact. While working as a neuroscience researcher, I felt a growing desire to contribute more directly to people’s lives. This led me to study counselling, coaching, and psychology in Amsterdam. During that time, I began hearing from Indian expat women struggling to find culturally sensitive care and that’s where Boss Naari was born: as a space to support and empower women through understanding and connection.

Here’s a quick hello from her:

Her therapeutic approach:

I believe therapy must be culturally sensitive. While biology is fairly universal, our minds are shaped by culture, upbringing, and early life experiences, and much of our trauma comes from childhood conditioning. My work is designed with Indian clients in mind, taking into account the unique family dynamics, parenting styles, and societal expectations we grow up with. Inspired by Carl Rogers’ humanistic philosophy, I focus on empathy, self-exploration, and helping women move toward self-actualization supporting them in becoming their fullest, most authentic selves.

Who this is for / Ideal clients:

This work is for Indian women living abroad who are looking for care that truly understands their cultural background and life experiences. Having lived in the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, and the UAE, I’ve seen firsthand how different cultures shape the way we think, feel, and navigate life. My experience as an expat allows me to appreciate the unique challenges, pressures, and opportunities that come with living away from home. If you’re seeking a space to explore your emotions, heal, and grow with guidance that respects both your cultural roots and your current context, this is for you.

A few testimonies:

“I went abroad thinking life would get easier, but I wasn’t ready for the homesickness and the loneliness. I tried therapy in the UK, but it just didn’t feel like they understood me. Switching to Boss Naari felt like finally talking to someone who gets it.”
“I lost my dad while I was abroad, and I couldn’t even fly home. Dnyanada helped me grieve without guilt. It felt like someone finally got what it’s like to be away.”
“I felt guilty for not feeling happy after my baby was born. I was all alone most of the day when my husband was at work, and I didn’t know who to talk to. Trying Boss Naari changed that for me.”
“I was talking to someone in Dubai, but for some reason, I switched to Boss Naari… and honestly, I’m not going back.”
“I felt guilty for feeling anxious when everyone said motherhood is ‘supposed to be happy.’ Boss Naari helped me accept my feelings and manage them without shame.”
I’m a new mom, and I am trying to adjust to everything but it hasn’t been easy. But I’m really glad I met you guys
“Even now, the loss of my child after miscarriage stays with me. Being a mother of two brings happiness, but I’ve learned it’s okay to feel both joy and sorrow at the same time.”
“Growing up in a strict family, I never thought my mental health mattered. Taking therapy showed me it does and it’s been life-changing.”
