About Deboshmita
Deboshmita "Diya" Bhanja is an ACA counsellor practising in Australia with six years of clinical experience. She greets people with warmth and calm, and aims to help them take the first steps toward change. Diya focuses on practical, day-to-day tools as well as deeper personal work.
Her approach is gentle and interactive. Sessions balance talking, reflecting, and simple exercises to try between meetings. She avoids stigmatising labels and treats each person with respect and sensitivity.
Background and approach
Diya works with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, parenting stress, career difficulties, addiction concerns, trauma and emotional abuse, and ADHD. She also supports people coping with grief, sleeping problems, relationship and communication issues, and compassion fatigue.
Clinically she draws on Jungian ideas alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). That mix lets her address both inner meaning and practical habits that get in the way of feeling better. Sessions are collaborative.
Diya helps each person set clear, realistic goals and chooses methods that suit their needs. She offers guidance, coaching and steady support while encouraging clients to discover what works for them. If someone is ready to begin, Diya invites them to consider a first session as a chance to clarify priorities and plan manageable steps toward change.

Online support
Approaches that suit online therapy
Jungian Therapy looks at personal meaning, dreams and life stories to help people understand patterns that keep repeating. It can be useful when someone wants to explore deep themes behind anxiety, low self-esteem or recurring relationship problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and to take committed action toward valued goals. ACT often helps with anxiety, depression and life transitions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgemental space where the person leads the pace and direction of the work; it helps people who need empathy and acceptance to feel heard.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the person's needs, goals and preferences. That might mean blending Jungian reflection with ACT skills or using CBT-style experiments alongside client-centred listening to suit how someone prefers to learn and change.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let people keep visual contact when exploring emotions. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, journalling prompts or people who prefer typing to talking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family and daily routines while keeping the focus on steady progress.
