Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
I am a trauma-informed psychotherapist having completed training through Bessel Van der Kolk’s “The Body Keeps the Score” workshops and the Polyvagal Institute around neuroscience and trauma and healing.
I provide a safe, relational, mindbody approach to help women in the processing and integrating traumas such as childhood developmental trauma, emotional or psychological abuse, or significant events, memories or losses that linger long after the incident occurred.
I would be honoured to be your guide and connect you with the validation, support and closure that you need and deserve.

Trauma is the emotional wound that is created in response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event such as the loss of a loved one, or perhaps suffering an accident, abuse or surviving a natural disaster. Equally trauma can result from the drip, drip, drip of negative or abusive circumstances outside our control, that impact our sense of safety, trust and ‘okay-ness’ in the world around us. The emotional impact of trauma can result in long term physical and mental symptoms that make it difficult to function in our everyday lives. It wreaks havoc with our relationships with others. Depression and anxiety very often result from the experience of trauma. Talking therapy can help us to validate our experiences and the feelings, or denial of feelings, that go hand in hand with trauma. In time we can hopefully reframe what causes us to suffer and develop skills to cope, so that we can move forward in our lives.

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.

Kevin Martin
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, BACP, ITTA, EA
Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) stems from prolonged, repeated trauma—typically occurring over months or years when escape was difficult or impossible, such as childhood neglect, emotional/physical abuse, domestic violence, or long-term exploitation.
Core Distinctions & Symptom Clusters
Emotional Dysregulation: Severe difficulty managing emotional responses, leading to intense mood swings, explosive anger, persistent sadness, or prolonged emotional numbing.
Negative Self-Concept: Deep-seated, pervasive feelings of worthlessness, shame, guilt, or feeling fundamentally broken or "different" from others.
Relational Difficulties: Chronic struggles with interpersonal relationships, including profound trust issues, fear of intimacy, or repeating unhealthy relational patterns.
Emotional Flashbacks: Unlike visual PTSD flashbacks, these involve sudden, intense regressions into the overwhelming feelings of childhood or past trauma (e.g., intense fear, smallness, hopelessness) without a clear visual memory.
