Ms Archita Thakuria

Counseling Psychologist

Empathetic, genuine and queer-affirmative counselling psychologist with an eclectic approach.

About Me

As an empathetic and genuine Counseling psychologist, I offer a warm, queer-affirmative space. Here, you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly. My eclectic approach tailors sessions to your unique needs, ensuring we find the right tools. This personalised method particularly helps clients seeking truly understanding support. You will find a welcoming environment to navigate life's challenges and grow.

Approach

I guide sessions at your pace, blending practical coping strategies with reflective curiosity so progress feels steady and doable. Whether we meet in Bangalore or online, I offer conversations in English or Hindi/Urdu that keep cultural context and daily life in view. Work often includes short between-session reflections, collaborative goal-setting and skills practice tailored to transitions, relationships, body image or adolescent challenges, with space for families or couples when helpful. People looking for grounded, nonjudgmental collaboration tend to find this approach useful.
