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.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Being a Highly Sensitive Person in a world that isn't built for sensitivity can leave you feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or like something's wrong with you for feeling things so deeply. If that resonates, let's work together to help you embrace your sensitivity as a strength rather than a struggle.
The first step in working with high sensitivity is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you — your nervous system simply processes the world more deeply, and that comes with real gifts alongside real challenges. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore how to protect your energy, set boundaries, and honor your needs without apology. My approach centers self-compassion and practical tools for thriving as a sensitive person in an often overstimulating world.
You don't have to feel "too much" alone. Let's take the first step toward a life that honors who you are.

Adima Hawkes
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
I know about highly sensitive, because I am diagnosed it. The world and other people in it have often looked overwhelming and "too much" for me. This can lead to isolation.
The challenge is to differentiate between physical symptoms and reactions and emotional and psychological reactions. Sometimes certain measure or changes in the environment can help. The challenge is not to (blindly) escape or react with self judgement or repress. I found out that the more I open up to vulnerability, the more stable and confident I feel. I'd love to support you in accepting and fully embracing your sensitivities and learning to regulate yourself with them.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
You may experience emotions, situations or the people around you more intensely, sometimes leaving you feeling overwhelmed, drained or caught in your own thoughts. Rather than seeing sensitivity as something you need to change, together we can understand how it affects you, develop practical ways to manage overwhelm and build greater clarity, confidence and emotional balance.
