Ms Akanksha Sharma

Clinical Psychologist
4 years of experience
My therapy sessions focus on helping individuals discover their authentic selves and live an empowered life. Hi! I am Akanksha, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who believes in creating a safe and compassionate space for individuals to process their thoughts and emotions. I understand that there are some situations in life that can cause deep emotional wounds and further lead to unpleasant feelings and unhealthy thought patterns. So, in my sessions, I strive to create a space where every individual can express themselves freely, without any fear of judgment, and further learn to work on their emotional wounds while navigating the challenges of life. I have an experience of 4 years of working with more than 1000 individuals from varied social identities (age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and social class). I provide psychotherapy to individuals of 18 years and above for mental health concerns such as anxiety disorders, mood disorders, managing painful emotions, low self-esteem, coping with relationships, and work stress. As a psychotherapist, I employ a client-centered, trauma-informed, and existential lens to therapy. My therapy techniques are derived from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Inner Child Work, and Humanistic therapy. In essence, my aim as a therapist is to guide individuals toward embracing their true selves and empowering them to lead fulfilling lives armed with effective coping mechanisms.

Seeking Therapy in India

As India grapples with the complexities of modern life, the need for holistic mental health support and emotional well-being has become paramount. Indian therapists seamlessly bring together mindfulness, intricately woven into their culture, and blend it with therapeutic interventions, making the experience of receiving therapy in India holistic and unique.

In the past few years, India has experienced a remarkable shift in its approach towards mental health, fostering a welcoming environment for those seeking professional support. Mental health professionals in India, hailing from prestigious institutions like NIMHANS and IHBAS, are actively championing therapy and destigmatizing the conversations around mental health. This has enabled individuals to address their challenges and actively pursue transformative growth - one therapy session at a time.

How to Choose the Right Therapist in India?

Determining the best therapist for yourself requires time and patience, as it depends on your personal needs and preferences. Listed below are a few steps that could help you make an informed decision and choose the best therapist in India:

  • Establish your needs

    Understand your goals and the outcome you wish to achieve through therapy. Read about the different areas of mental health and identify the concerns or symptoms you would want to address in therapy. This will help you find therapists who specialize in your areas of concern.

  • Check qualifications and experience

    Consider looking up the relevant educational qualifications (e.g., a Master's or M.Phil. degree in Psychology) and professional experience of different therapists. Check if they are registered with a professional body, such as the Indian Association of Clinical Psychologists (IACP) or the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI).

  • Review therapeutic approach

    Read about the different therapeutic interventions and choose a therapist who practices an approach that resonates with you.

  • Filter by your preferred language

    At DocVita, we have a wide network of professionals who speak 17 different languages. You can easily consult a therapist who speaks your native language, allowing you to express yourself freely and find success in therapy.

  • Consider Location, Availability, and Cost

    Factors like location, availability, and affordability must be taken into consideration. Additionally, you can also seek therapists who offer online sessions.

  • Prioritize your comfort

    Choose a therapist you feel comfortable with and who you believe can ease your therapeutic journey. It's important to feel a sense of trust and rapport with your therapist.

  • Look for therapists offering introductory calls

    DocVita offers 15-minute introductory calls to help set the foundation for future sessions. These can also help you decide whether or not a therapist is an ideal match for you.

It's important to remember that it may take a while to find a therapist who is a good match for your needs, and it's perfectly fine to switch to a different therapist if you feel that your current one isn't meeting your expectations. The primary objective is to locate a therapist who can offer you the support you require to attain your mental health objectives.
