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.

Grounded Space Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Graduate Diploma Trauma Informed Processwork Psychotherapy (Process Oriented Psychology), Diploma Counselling, Somatic Experiencing Cert II/III
When it comes to social anxiety the client-therapist relationship is an integral part of healing and can within itself, serve as a supportive and validating resource throughout the therapeutic process, fostering a sense of trust and empowerment for clients as they work towards integrating all aspects of themselves for greater self-awareness and clarity. Social anxiety can be extremely impactful and debilitating to anyone who has experienced it. The fear of social situations and interactions can manifest in a variety of ways with symptoms ranging from sweating, trembling, rapid heart rate and difficulty speaking to a complete withdrawal from all social interactions. This can stem from a fear of being judged, embarrassed, or of being rejected by others to underlaying issues such as trauma and low self-esteem. I provide a safe, compassionate and understanding space to help support and completely guide you to identify the root cause of the anxiety and welcome you to reach out through whatever means of communication you feel comfortable, so we can schedule a time to have a chat.

Melbourne has a well-established therapy culture and one of Australia's highest rates of therapist availability per capita, with a strong emphasis on evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, and schema therapy. The city's high cost of living and competitive professional environment drive demand for therapists addressing burnout, perfectionism, and relationship stress among its large young professional population. Melbourne's diverse migrant communities — including large South Asian, East Asian, and African populations — mean cultural competence and multilingual therapy are in consistent demand. The Royal Melbourne Hospital and Alfred Health provide institutional mental health resources alongside the city's extensive private and community-based therapy network.
