Threshold is just getting started as of July 2025. These quotes are from clients I’ve worked with in other consulting work.

Anand’s mediation and conflict resolution skills helped us resolve conflicts in ways that brought the group together instead of relying on him—he created a cohesive sense of care.

I hope everyone has at least one teacher in their lifetime who is as encouraging, committed, and kind as Anand.

– Ambri Pukhraj, Oakland, CA

It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with Anand. He is warm, respectful, and approachable as well as a savvy, intelligent facilitator of group dynamics. Anand has always demonstrated a profound understanding of the power differentials in the group allowing him to create safe space for all participants to explore their stories. His experience with body-based mindfulness techniques has been particularly helpful for storytellers who are exploring charged trauma-based narratives.

Anand has so many wonderful qualities as a consultant and colleague; I would say those that jump to my mind first are his patience, his active listening skills, his deep knowledge of so many different subjects (and openness to learn), and his incredibly organized mind and workflow. And he is incredibly intuitive and compassionate–always feeling the energy in a room and coming from individuals, sensitive to it and responsive to it–while still reserving the ability and authority to take a stand and bring a situation back under control or to get everyone in the room back on track.
