Ms Akshada Anikhindi
Psychotherapist
“As a narrative therapy practitioner, trauma-informed coach & queer-affirmative practitioner, I create a safe space for real, raw conversations. Whether through therapy, retreats, or workshops, I help you untangle your thoughts, heal, and step into your power—because you were never broken to begin with.”
About Me
Approach
Therapy with me is a collaborative journey. You're the expert of your life; I'm here to guide, hold space, and walk alongside you. My work is rooted in narrative practices and a strengths-based philosophy—helping you see your story from new angles and recognize the resources you already carry.
I integrate:
Narrative Therapy
Clinical Hypnotherapy & NLP
Inner Child Healing & Age Regression
Trauma-Informed Care
Mindfulness & Strengths-Based Approaches
What makes my practice different:
- Trauma-informed: I create safety while gently exploring difficult experiences
- Queer-affirmative: All identities, orientations, and relationship structures are welcome
- Collaborative: You lead, I support—no prescriptive answers, just exploration
- Holistic: We look at patterns, not just symptoms
What to expect:
Active engagement (this isn't passive advice-giving)
Personalized strategies tailored to your needs
Some discomfort as we explore difficult truths
Compassion, honesty, and a judgment-free space
