Shreshtha Dhar

I am a RCI-registered Clinical Psychologist with an M.A. and M.Phil. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Calcutta and the founder of Thought Craft, a mental health and psychotherapy practice based in Kolkata.

My clinical work involves providing psychological assessment and psychotherapy for individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, stress, relationship concerns, and adjustment-related challenges. I follow an integrative and evidence-based approach, tailoring therapy according to the unique needs and experiences of each individual.

I incorporate principles from Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), third-wave CBT approaches including Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills training, along with trauma-informed approaches, Narrative Therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions in my clinical practice.

My clinical practice involves working with individuals experiencing a range of psychological disorders and emotional difficulties, including anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, trauma-related concerns, stress-related difficulties, phobias, psychosomatic concerns, and emotional regulation challenges. Through psychological assessment and evidence-based psychotherapeutic interventions, I support individuals in understanding their concerns, developing adaptive coping strategies, improving psychological functioning, and enhancing overall wellbeing.

I have a special interest in understanding the impact of adverse life experiences, attachment patterns, emotional regulation, and relational dynamics on psychological wellbeing. My therapeutic approach emphasizes creating a safe, collaborative, and compassionate space where individuals can develop self-awareness, build healthier coping strategies, strengthen emotional resilience, and work towards meaningful personal growth.

I provide long distance teleconsultation in English, Hindi and Bengali around the world.

While mental health has become an integral part of my life. I also enjoy various other activities such as music, dance, art, cooking, fitness and travelling. I am an ardent animal lover. I feel very fortunate that I get to connect and work with wonderful individuals. Feel free to drop in a mail at shreshthaa.psy@gmail.com.
