Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
If left untreated, issues from and in childhood and adolescence can stay with us into adulthood, often we need to re-visit these and see how we can work with them to resolve them. This is also for parents and siblings of the 'child' or 'adolescent' who is showing the behaviours difficulties but might well be part of a more challenging system, often a family system.

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.

Children & Adolescent Coaching – Complimentary Consultation
Is your child or teenager struggling with ADHD or other forms of neurodivergence?
Young people with ADHD, autism or learning differences often experience challenges with focus, organisation, emotional regulation and school demands. Difficulties with study and revision skills are often linked to executive function development, and many young people also struggle with confidence, social interaction and communication.
Through specialist coaching, I work directly with children and adolescents to strengthen executive function skills such as planning, organisation, study and revision strategies, sustained attention and task completion. We also work on emotional regulation, confidence, and developing stronger social and communication skills.
I support parents as well, helping them better understand their child’s needs and offering practical guidance that strengthens communication and support at home and in school.
Book a complimentary consultation to explore how we can support your child’s development, learning and wellbeing.
