A Little About Therapy
Therapy is a collaborative process where we come together to unravel and understand your unique narrative and life experiences. We’ll start by exploring what you hope to explore through therapy, because it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach as your journey is as unique as you are.
The idea of therapy isn’t to fit into a mold; it’s to create space for yourself, a room to
breathe,
to
reflect, and to be.
Comfortable, not cramped.

Know Your Therapist
I’m a UNESCO-CID licensed Expressive Arts Therapist, and my sessions aren’t based on reception, they involve active collaboration and tuning in and out using the body. When working with clients in the therapeutic space, I use a mix of Expressive Arts Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, Narrative Therapy, Neurolinguistics Programming (NLP), Hypnosis, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS).While these may just sound like fancy names, here is a sneak sneak peek into them-
Trauma-Informed Care is a holistic approach that acknowledges the role of the body in our healing journey. It encourages us to tune inward, recognize how our body holds experiences, and build a relationship with it beyond just the physical. This perspective helps create a safe space for exploration and integration.
Narrative Therapy helps us explore the unique stories we tell about ourselves and our lives. It allows us to examine where these narratives originate, how they shape our identities, and how we can rewrite them in ways that feel empowering and authentic.
CBT is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps us understand our thought patterns—their origins, the roles they play in our lives, and how we can gently reframe them to support our well-being.
NLP helps us recognize the subconscious patterns we have developed over time and understand the purpose they serve. By bringing these patterns into awareness, we gain the ability to reshape them in ways that align with our growth and goals.
IFS is a therapeutic approach that involves connecting with different parts of ourselves—understanding, befriending, and integrating them into a cohesive sense of self.

Who am I outside of the Therapy Room
Just a girl with her glasses on, wearing comfortable clothes to get through Delhi's scorching heat or cold winters. When I'm not working, you can find me curled up watching Bollywood movies, sitcoms, MasterChef India, or my favorite travel vlogger. Other times, I might be doodling, goofing around with my art supplies, or simply wanting to be in nature.

Workshops/Interactive Sessions/Training programs
A storyteller never runs out of new stories to tell—that’s how I like to approach facilitation. For me, it’s not about having tricks up my sleeve; it’s about creating a space where ideas can flow, connections can spark, and participants walk away with something meaningful to carry with them.
I’ve had the privilege of facilitating workshops and interactive sessions for diverse groups — school students, college students, therapists, and employees across different organizations.
The topics I’ve covered are as varied as they are impactful:
- 🎨 Expressive Arts Therapy
- 🧠 Mental Health Awareness
- ⏰ Time Management & Scheduling
- 🛋️ Setting Up Therapy Spaces
- ❤️ Understanding Relationships
- 🌧️ Stress Management & Suicide Awareness
- 🤝 Team Building
- 🌿 Self-Care & Self Work
- 📜 Ethics & Boundaries (Indian Context)
- ✍️ Creative Writing & Expression
Whether it’s a small group or a large gathering, my goal is to create an environment that’s engaging, reflective, and grounded in real-world relevance.
If you’d like to book a workshop, interactive session or a training program, please reach out here so that we can discuss your hopes from the space and co-create something fun and engaging.

– Participant
“Working with Dakshita was really fun, even though I’m really not a fan of art & such methods it was really enjoyable. Among the things I loved most were the wool activity and the blackout poetry. It led me to understand that it's not important to love or even enjoy art to partake in expressive arts.”
