Dr. Antonio D'Costa
Registered Psychotherapist, M.B.B.S, M.D. (Paediatrics)
I specialize in pediatric medicine and trauma-focused therapy using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). My work centers on supporting children, adolescents, and adults through grief, anxiety, behavioral challenges, and the lingering effects of difficult experiences.
As a pediatrician, I've seen how unprocessed trauma shows up in young lives- through sleep troubles, feeding issues, social withdrawal, and emotional struggles. EMDR offers a gentle, research-backed path to healing that goes beyond words.
With EMDRIA-approved training and my pediatric experience, I help families navigate some of their most challenging moments. Whether it's a child struggling with grief, an adolescent facing anxiety, or an adult working through long-held wounds, my approach blends medical expertise with compassionate, evidence-based care.
I'm passionate about making mental health support accessible- offering teletherapy across India and internationally, with subsidized sessions available for those who need them.
Let's connect if you're looking for trauma-informed support, professional collaboration, or referrals for children and families in need.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Everyone has trauma. It's part of being alive. And some trauma events can be particularly intense and leave us feeling unsafe in the world. The environment we grew up in, if particularly abusive and dysfunctional, can also be traumatic and cause us to feel unsafe in the world. Trauma shows up in our nervous system responses to people and situations, like being excessively wary and on high alert.
We work to regulate your nervous system, to give it safe resting places and experiences of relaxation. We also work with the underlying trauma itself in a very slow, resourcing way.

Katie Feder
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Hons Psychology
Trauma and PTSD can feel like invisible scars that affect every aspect of your life. Whether it's from a past relationship, a difficult childhood, or a specific traumatic event, the impact can leave you feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, and disconnected from your sense of self. But healing from trauma is possible, and it’s a journey toward reclaiming your peace and power.
I support women who are navigating the effects of trauma and PTSD, helping them process their experiences, reconnect with their bodies, and restore emotional balance. We’ll work together to unravel the deep-seated patterns of fear, shame, and self-doubt, and begin the process of healing your nervous system so you can feel safe, grounded, and empowered.
While trauma can leave lasting effects, healing is not just about reliving painful memories—it’s about rebuilding your sense of safety, self-worth, and resilience. Through practical tools, emotional support, and guidance, I help you step into a future where you are in control of your life, with a renewed sense of strength and clarity.
Healing from trauma takes time, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to guide you through the process, helping you reclaim your life, your peace, and your personal power.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From the perspective of Somatic Experiencing, trauma isn't the thing that happened 15 years ago (or last week), it's the ongoing effects that that incident continues to have on your body.
We can work together to figure out how your body is still reacting to that incident, and work to help your body 'catch up' to the present moment. If you're safer now than you were then, there are ways we can help your body 'complete' the threat response from so long ago, and land in the comparative safety of the present moment.
I can't treat PTSD, so if you've been diagnosed with PTSD you should still work with a licensed mental health professional, even as you work with me. What I can do is support your body in turning down the volume on that threatened feeling that has been coming up since the trauma-inducing events.

Trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (as well as C-PTSD) can profoundly impact an individual's mental and emotional well-being. Just as each traumatic experience or experiences are unique so are the ways in which we each respond and process them.

I am a trauma informed Processwork (Process Oriented) Psychotherapist as well as Somatic Experiencing informed. I provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space for you to gradually work through your traumatic experiences to regain a sense of control, and ultimately reclaim your life.

Wonderful Mess
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Social Work, Diploma of Counselling
Trauma and PTSD are topics that are very close to my heart because I didn't realise mental health was a thing until I went through the devastation of these two words. I am awaiting further training on EMDR and somatic therapy because, from my experience, trauma takes over the whole body and I want to offer options to my clients that go further than talk therapy and aim to look within the body, at these unprocessed emotions and feelings and give them a way out.

Trauma can also be caused by many other frightening situations, such as bullying, abuse, rape, crime, war, victimization, and shaming/humiliation.
