Meet Archana Sundar
While pursuing her MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Archana is opening her books to a small and focused client caseload. She holds a B.S. in Behavioral Neuroscience from the University of Kansas, with research roots in behavioral economics and decision-making. Here, she learned about the varying factors in risky decision-making, altruism, and more through models like behavioral activation and delay discounting. Afterwards, she served as a Clinical Research Counselor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, providing trauma-informed behavior change counseling within equity-focused research trials, published research on improving treatment response for high-stress populations when standard approaches weren't landing, and trained healthcare providers across the country in motivational interviewing and behavior change models. In all her work, she prioritizes the relationship with the people she serves with a listening ear and an open heart. She currently serves as a Graduate Assistant at The Farm at SOU in Ashland, Oregon, where she executes business programming and marketing. At Resiliently Real, she builds on her experiences to help people understand themselves, their lifestyles, responsibilities, and complexities - and what it takes to do that differently. Through mentorship and culture consulting, she helps individuals and teams move out of automatic patterns and into more sustainable ways of working, relating, and recovering. Across all of it, her core values stay the same. She cares deeply about humanity and wellness for all. She's compassionate, grounded, relational, and attentive to the conditions that make change actually possible. Outside of her career, Archana prioritizes cooking and nutrition, outdoor adventure, photography, family, fun, and friends.
