Sara Aicart-Pendlebury
Art Therapist, Human Givens Practitioner (HG.Dip.P), Member of Human Givens Institute, IFS therapist Levels 1&2, Narm Practitioner
I work with children and adolescents, using an indirect play-centred, or art-centred approach. This enables us to address issues together without, creating an atmosphere of overt therapy for young people. Often with a couple of fun paintings (that you can take home and admire!) we can address fears or attitudes, behaviours and even trauma

Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Children and teens react to stress or trauma in a variety of ways. School grades might drop. The child could procrastinate, have memory problems, or become distracted, self-critical, perfectionist, irritable, depressed, anxious, or violent. They might sleep too much or too little, have headaches or stomach problems, disordered eating, panic attacks or develop habits like hair-pulling or biting their nails. Teens might be sullen and uncommunicative and turn to potentially addictive behaviours like drinking or drugs, video games or pornography, to manage their stress. They may also turn to influencers and may take on new and disturbing belief systems.
If the child or teen is worried about their own behaviour or ability to manage complex situations, and is looking for help, then therapy offers a chance to learn more appropriate coping skills to use in daily life.
At the first session, I will listen to your concerns and those of your child to get an overview of the situation. For younger kids, it is often not necessary to explain in detail that they are going for "therapy." You could simply say that they will be having a relaxed and quiet time in which they will listen to stories and use their imagination to solve their problems.

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.
