How Does this Process Work?

The First Meeting: Understanding Your Story

Your initial session is a calm space to share what brings you here—your concerns, your hopes, and the shifts you want to see. We map your emotional landscape together, without pressure or judgment.

Clarifying the Path Ahead

Once your needs are clear, we outline a direction: what we’ll explore, the tools we’ll use, and the kind of support that will help you most. This roadmap stays flexible, because healing isn’t linear—it’s personal.

Working Through Patterns and Emotions

As the sessions progress, we dive into the thoughts, beliefs, and emotional habits that shape your everyday life. You learn practical techniques—drawn from CBT and other approaches—to help you respond rather than react.

Building Skills That Stay With You

You begin applying insights between sessions, noticing shifts in clarity, calm, and decision-making. Over time, you’ll develop emotional skills that support you long after therapy ends.

Moving Forward With Confidence

When you feel steadier, lighter, and equipped to navigate life on your own terms, we transition out of therapy. Many clients return for check-ins as needed, but the aim is always the same: your independence, your growth.

Values

These values shape the way I hold space, guide conversations, and support every individual who connects with me. They form the foundation of how healing unfolds—steadily, respectfully, and with deep intention. I strive to bring the same focus and attention to every interaction, whether online on in person.

Compassion

Every journey begins with the courage to be seen. I meet each client with warmth, respect, and an unwavering commitment to their emotional safety, ensuring they feel held as they navigate their inner world.

Integrity

Therapy must be a space of clarity and honesty. My work is grounded in evidence-based practice, ethical responsibility, and a promise to offer guidance that is sincere, transparent, and in your best interest.


Growth

Healing is not only about easing pain—it is about expanding your capacity to live fully. I believe in supporting clients as they discover strengths, shift patterns, and build the emotional skills that help them thrive long-term.

Presence

Real change happens when we slow down enough to listen inward. I bring mindful attention to each session, creating a space where clients can pause, reflect, and reconnect to what truly matters.

Disha is a phenomenal counsellor.

I had met with her for a grief related consult.

She was able to help me make sense of what I was going through and share ways to work through them.

What really worked for me was the she listened to me intently. She was able to pick up details that I had often missed in my own stream of thought.

I would recommend her strongly to anyone looking for a solution to challenges that they might be facing related to grief and mental wellness.
