About

I’m Deshna Gundecha, a counselling and organisational psychologist. At the heart of my work is a simple belief: healing begins when we feel truly seen, heard, and safe enough to be honest.

I work with folks who feel emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or caught in patterns that no longer feel helpful. Many people come to therapy carrying anxiety, unresolved trauma, relationship struggles, guilt, identity questions, or simply a sense that something in their life isn’t sitting right, even if they can’t fully name it yet.

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, relational, and insight-oriented. I draw from psychodynamic ideas, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and humanistic-existential therapy. Rather than focusing only on surface-level problems, we take time to understand the deeper patterns shaping your thoughts, emotions, and relationships.

Clients often describe my style as warm, thoughtful, and grounding. I try to balance emotional exploration with structure, helping you slow down, reflect, and reconnect with your own voice and sense of direction. I’m not here to “fix” you; therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to make sense of your experiences and move toward a life that feels more aligned.

Alongside private practice, I’m also interested in workplace wellbeing and the emotional realities of modern work. I facilitate support spaces for mental health professionals as well, recognising that those who care for others also need spaces to process and reflect.

Therapy with me is a place where all parts of your experience are welcome.. the messy thoughts, the pauses, the uncertainty, the tears, and the moments of insight. We move at your pace, with curiosity, compassion, and respect for your lived experience.
