About Disha
Disha Khatter is a PACFA counsellor practising in Australia with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns and depression. She speaks English and Hindi and focuses on helping individuals manage difficult feelings and life changes.
Disha uses a person-centred way of working, which means she pays close attention to each person's story and helps them make sense of their patterns. Conversations are collaborative and practical. She aims to listen closely and reflect what she notices so people can try new ways of responding to old problems.
She also uses Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which gives a clear structure to work through frightening or upsetting experiences. That approach includes techniques to reduce overwhelming reactions, arrange memories differently, and practise new coping skills in everyday life.
Sessions often involve setting small, manageable goals and trying concrete steps between meetings. Disha pays attention to relationship patterns, attachment and how early experiences shape present behaviour. She also helps with communication problems, blended family issues and parenting stress.
Her practice addresses concerns such as abandonment, avoidant personality patterns, body image and feelings of emptiness. People working with her can expect straightforward talk about what is getting in the way and practical strategies to test in day-to-day life.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
She combines person-centred work with Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Person-centred work involves attentive listening and reflective questions that help people understand their feelings and patterns. It is useful for anxiety, relationship concerns and deciding what to try next.Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a structured approach to reduce distress linked to traumatic memories. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thoughts, build coping skills and practise calmer responses to reminders of past events.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about what feels most helpful and then try methods together, adjusting them if needed. That collaboration helps match techniques to a person’s needs and goals.
The source biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. For some people, phone or video work lets them continue care when in-person meetings are difficult, while still focusing on clear strategies and practical steps that can be used between sessions.
