About me

Ms. Dimple Kaushik is a Counselling psychologist, Couples therapist and Doctoral scholar in Psychology. She specialises in trauma and grief work. She believes therapy can be a space where you no longer have to hold everything together, explain away your feelings, or be someone you think you should be. A space where you can show up just as you are, feel heard without judgement, and begin to understand yourself with greater kindness and compassion. Her aim is to help you build a deeper connection with yourself and find a steadier way of navigating life. Dimple works with adolescents, adults, and couples, including trauma and sexual assault survivors, LGBTQ+ individuals, and people from marginalised communities. Whether you are struggling with painful experiences from the past, grief, overwhelming emotions, recurring relationship patterns, or a sense of feeling stuck, therapy offers an opportunity to explore what lies beneath these experiences. Her integrative, trauma-informed approach brings together an understanding of how our past shapes the present, how stress and emotions are experienced in the body, and how grounding practices can help us feel more connected to ourselves. Working collaboratively, she supports clients in making sense of their experiences, recognising patterns that no longer serve them, and finding meaningful, sustainable ways forward. Beyond the therapy room, Dimple is a cat person who can rarely resist a little feline affection. She enjoys discovering cosy eateries, painting, and singing simply for the joy of it. She treasures quiet moments of solitude as much as time spent with her favourite people, whether over good food, long conversations, or spontaneous plans.

Approach

Dimple integrates creativity, practical tools, and body-based awareness to help clients better understand their patterns, navigate difficult emotions, and reconnect with themselves. Her approach extends beyond simply talking about problems, exploring how past experiences shape the present, how stress is held and experienced in the body, and how grounding practices can support a greater sense of steadiness. Together, clients and Dimple work towards understanding recurring patterns, moving beyond cycles that leave them feeling stuck, and creating meaningful changes that feel sustainable in everyday life. Free 15-minute discovery call: If you are considering therapy, you can book a complimentary 15-minute call with Dimple to explore whether her approach feels right for you and ask any questions about the therapeutic process.
