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.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have worked young people & their families since the beginning of my career & I am passionate about supporting this age group. I recognise the importance of working within an MDT framework, using trauma informed practice & working closely with families and significant others. For me, adolescence is such an important time for mental health support because it is the last opportunity before adulthood for creating change pathways. I believe it is vital to utilise the brain elasticity of adolesence (whenever possible) to give young people the best start to adulthood they can have.
