Piyusha Pande

Director & Counselling Psychologist

Piyusha is the kind of therapist people describe as “easy to talk to” — and it shows in her work. A counselling psychologist with 7+ years of experience and CBT certification from the renowned Beck Institute, she has a strong mindfulness thread running through her sessions. She helps clients untangle anxiety, low mood, grief and the messy in-between phases of life. Her sessions are structured enough to create real change, and gentle enough that you actually look forward to them.

How Piyusha works

Areas of focus and what sessions tend to look like.

Beck Institute CBT

Formally trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy by the Beck Institute — the institute founded by Dr. Aaron Beck, the father of CBT itself. Practical, evidence-based work that connects thoughts, feelings and actions.

Mindfulness

Simple, doable mindfulness practices woven into therapy — helpful for anxious minds that find 'just relax' advice useless.

Anxiety, Low Mood & Burnout

A steady, judgment-free space to work through worry, sadness and exhaustion — at school, work or home.

Grief & Life Transitions

Support through loss, big decisions and identity shifts — the moments when life quietly rearranges itself.

“Therapy isn't about becoming a different person. It's about becoming more fully the person you already are — with a little less weight to carry.”
