About Kritika

Kritika Kad is an ACA counsellor practising in Australia with four years of professional experience. She supports people with stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting concerns, self-esteem and life transitions, including social anxiety and phobia.

She offers straightforward, practical conversations that focus on what is bothering someone now. Sessions look at current patterns, triggers and small changes that can reduce overwhelm in daily life. Communication and workplace concerns are addressed with concrete strategies rather than long theoretical explanations.

Kritika pays attention to cultural and immigration issues and how these affect adjustment and relationships. She also helps people who want to build self-love and clearer communication in family settings. Her background includes work with people navigating change after moving countries.

Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. She helps clients map out a few clear steps and checks progress from session to session. This approach aims to make therapy feel manageable and predictable for people who find social situations difficult.

Kritika speaks English and Hindi, and she draws on evidence-based techniques to help with anxiety and coping skills. To start, readers are encouraged to use the site matching process and schedule a first session if the options suit them.

Her practice notes that subscription sessions can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location. International clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Two evidence-based techniques she commonly uses are cognitive approaches and behavioural strategies. Cognitive approaches involve identifying unhelpful thoughts that increase anxiety and testing them against real-life experience to reduce worry and avoidance. Behavioural strategies focus on graded exposure and practical skills practice to help people face feared social situations in small, manageable steps.

She also uses problem-solving techniques to address workplace and parenting challenges by breaking issues into concrete tasks and actions. These methods help people build routine habits that reduce day-to-day stress and improve functioning.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with the client and adjust techniques as needed. This collaborative process helps decide which exercises and steps fit a person’s situation.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Discussing format and scheduling up front helps plan sessions that work with everyday life without assuming a particular setup.
