Parent Coaching for Neurodiverse Children - Complimentary Consultation
Are you finding it challenging to support your neurodiverse child?
Perhaps your own neurodiversity makes parenting more complex, or you feel unsure whether your current approach is helping your child thrive.
Many parents unintentionally fall into common patterns that can make daily life more stressful for both themselves and their child.
Specialist coaching can help you better understand your child’s needs and develop supportive strategies that strengthen communication, emotional regulation and confidence at home.
With the right guidance, you can feel more confident in your parenting and see meaningful progress in your child’s wellbeing and development.
Book a complimentary consultation to explore how we can work together.

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.

I offer 20-years of professional experience; as a nanny, youth worker, teacher (in child development, health and mental health, behavioural and disability education), youth-sector project manager, health and mental health sector leader.
I have provided child wellbeing and care advice at the highest level. That includes advising Australian and British government on child wellbeing, development, health and mental health.

I work with an intersectional lens to understand your unique life journey and your child’s/ren’s personal needs and life lens; I therefore tailor support according to family learning and processing styles. This includes being able to provide specialist support related to disability, behaviour, neurodiversity, and families experiencing marginalisation, trauma, or other isolation.
