About Deboshmita
Deboshmita "Diya" Bhanja is an ACA counsellor and psychotherapist practising in Australia with six years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and ADHD. Diya also supports those coping with trauma, relationship difficulties, parenting strain and career challenges.
Her sessions are straightforward and conversational. She listens for patterns in feeling and behaviour, then helps people notice what maintains those patterns. Diya draws on approaches such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centred Therapy to make sense of emotions and choices.
Clients can expect practical tools and reflective discussion. She uses exercises people can try between sessions, and she teaches skills for managing strong emotions, sleep problems and compulsive behaviours. The aim is to build clearer awareness and more useful responses to daily stresses.
Diya pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns when these show up in relationships and self-image. She also works with issues like codependency, body image, blended family tensions and chronic illness, helping people sort what matters most and set manageable goals.
Her background includes clinical supervision work and varied practice settings across Australia. Sessions are delivered in English, and she does not take international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the practice's online booking flow.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and how they shape relationship and personal patterns. In sessions a person is helped to name hard-to-reach feelings and track how they influence actions and connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) works on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small steps that align with what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Diya will discuss what feels most useful based on a person's goals, current difficulties and preferred way of working. She often blends methods so practical skills and deeper emotional work happen together.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into work or family time. They can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that suits a person's day. The therapist will agree on a format and rhythm that fit with everyday life and the goals people bring to therapy.
