Meet your Therapist

​Anitha D is a counselling psychologist specializing in relational, trauma and somatic psychotherapy. She is the founder of 'The Mind Body Counselling Center'.

​

She has been in clinical practice for over 7+ years, working with adults (21+) navigating the impact of trauma, anxiety, depression, and the patterns that have been hard to shift through insight alone.

​

Her work sits at the intersection of the mind and the body. She holds that real change rarely comes from understanding alone. It comes when the body is included in the work: when what the nervous system has carried can be met, not only what the thinking mind has made sense of. This shapes how she paces sessions, how she listens, and how she holds the therapeutic relationship.

 

Her practice integrates four clinical frameworks, woven together: somatic psychotherapy, attachment-based therapy, parts-informed work, and trauma-trained care. The integration is not technique-driven. It emerges from a steady attention to what is present in the room: in what is said, in what is felt, in what the body is holding.​
