About me
Hello there!
I'm Drishti and have been practising in Berlin for three years.
I have worked with subjective experiences (narratives), whether they be relational (single parents, and siblings of neurodivergent children) and change (women post their childbirth), and am a firm believer that you have a story to share!
As an Adult with ADHD and Expat who has experienced changes, transitions and expose to new cultures, I see you, and I hope to support you in your journey forward.
Personally my learnings from Narrative Therapy help quite a lot, as I was no longer expected to be the 'expert' and see my clients interweaving their identity into their narratives of their lives.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and Commitment TherapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Trauma Informed CareRecommended for those who have experienced trauma and need a safe, supportive space to heal at their own pace.
I believe in an integrative approach, informed by intersectional feminist theory. As a student I found a lot of structure in evidence-based practices such as CBT, as it allows for homework and goal setting.
As an ACT therapist, I guide individuals facing anxiety, stress, and life transitions to discover their values and create lives rich in meaning. Through mindfulness and evidence-based techniques, I help clients move beyond struggles and embrace resilience, purpose, and emotional well-being.
I feel a 'diagnosis' is somewhat de-humanizing, reducing an individual to a diagnostic label. In my work, I like to explore how the diagnosis impacts a person, and how they choose to work around it.
I believe a lot of work happens beyond the counseling session, whether it be through reflections, readings or watching. Homework or 'Task of the Week' is a common practice I use, along with many anecdotes and metaphors.
Working with a strength-based approach, has equipped me in helping my clients externalize the problem from the person. All one needs is a safe, non-judgemental space for conversations and to unlearn, relearn and learn.
Some of the most Common Challenges my current clients face include:
- Anxiety
- Adulting with ADHD
- Life Transitions
- Living Away from Home
- Self Esteem Issues
- Identity Shifts
- Interpersonal Conflicts
- Work Stress
- Emotional Regulation
