Both Parents and their children face issues that are confronting them. Taking the time to discuss concerns putting into place strategies assist both the children and their parents.

Alexina Baldini
Psychologist, B.B.Sc., G.D.A.C.P., M.Psych.(For.), F.A.P.S.
Children and adolescents are increasingly the focus of concern for many adults, including their parents and other key family members or friend. We have staff who specialise in working with particular age groups, from pre-schoolers (when the adults caring for the child are key people included in the therapy) through to older adolescents whose needs for independence are often needing to be balanced with responsibility and risk. Good therapy provided for these age groups can set the individual up for successful relationships into the future and promote their ability to seek further support as required into the future.

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.
