Disha Khatter

Disha Khatter is a PACFA counsellor practising in Australia with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns and depression. She speaks English and Hindi and focuses on helping individuals who feel stuck or overwhelmed by change.

Her style is person-centred. She listens for each person’s story and recurring patterns. Sessions aim to make it easier to notice what is getting in the way of daily life and relationships.

Disha also uses Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which brings structure when helping people process upsetting events. That approach adds step-by-step tools to the open conversation of person-centred work.

In practice she combines listening with practical tasks. People can expect to talk through feelings and try small experiments between sessions. The work includes managing anxiety symptoms, rebuilding trust after hurt, and clarifying parenting or relationship priorities.

She helps with issues tied to attachment and abandonment, identity concerns like body image, and stresses of caring for others. Disha also addresses separation, blended family challenges, communication problems, and forgiveness work.

Her way of working is collaborative and gradual. Clients set the pace and choose what to focus on. The aim is to make day-to-day choices feel more manageable and to reduce the overwhelm that often follows big life changes.

How therapeutic approaches are used online

Person-centred therapy is an open, listening-focused approach that helps a person notice patterns and priorities. Online sessions using this method allow space for describing what feels hard and choosing practical next steps to try between meetings.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy combines discussion with step-by-step techniques to process distressing memories and reduce unhelpful reactions. Used online, TF-CBT breaks tasks into manageable stages and teaches coping skills that can be practised between sessions.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will review your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and avoid travel time, which helps keep momentum between appointments.
