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.

Canberra is Australia's purpose-built capital city and home to the federal public service, creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including burnout, moral injury, and careers lived in close proximity to political power. The city has the highest median income and education level of any Australian capital, with a population generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Canberra Hospital provides institutional mental health services alongside a well-established private practice community serving the inner south, Belconnen, and Tuggeranong. A recurring theme across many Canberra practices is the tension between personal values and the constraints of institutional work — a dynamic that cuts across much of the city's therapy culture.
