Meet Ms. Arushi Srivastava: Counselling Psychologist at Psych Therapy

Counselling Psychologist | ACT Practitioner | Mental Health Educator

Ms. Arushi Srivastava is a Counselling Psychologist at Psych Therapy with over two years of clinical experience, dedicated to making therapy feel approachable, collaborative, and genuinely supportive. Having worked across diverse clinical settings, she has helped individuals navigate a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns.

A trained Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) practitioner, Ms. Arushi integrates mindfulness-based techniques with evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help clients build psychological flexibility, navigate difficult emotions, and create meaningful, lasting change. Clients often appreciate her warm, relatable style and gentle sense of humour, which helps make therapy feel less intimidating and encourages open, honest conversations from the very first session.

Ms. Arushi believes that therapy should never feel like being judged or analysed. Instead, she works alongside her clients to understand their experiences, identify patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and build practical ways of moving forward at a pace that feels right for them.

Her ability to remain composed during emotionally intense conversations, listen without judgement, and understand each client’s unique perspective has helped her build strong therapeutic relationships grounded in trust. Dedicated to continuous learning, she remains updated with evolving mental health research, contemporary psychological practices, and current mental health conversations, ensuring her care is both evidence-informed and relevant to the challenges people face today.

Areas of Expertise

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

As a practitioner trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Ms. Arushi helps individuals develop psychological flexibility by learning to respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions rather than constantly struggling against them. Her work focuses on helping clients build a life that is guided by their values, even during challenging times.

Anxiety, Stress & Emotional Well-being

Persistent overthinking, constant worry, burnout, and emotional overwhelm can make even everyday life feel exhausting. Ms. Arushi works with clients to understand the underlying factors contributing to anxiety and stress while helping them develop practical coping strategies that support long-term emotional well-being.

Relationship Counselling

Healthy relationships require understanding, communication, and emotional awareness. Ms. Arushi supports individuals and couples in navigating relationship concerns, communication difficulties, conflict, trust issues, attachment patterns, breakups, and boundary-setting while helping them build healthier interpersonal connections.

Self-Esteem, Identity & Personal Growth

Low self-worth, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and identity concerns often affect multiple areas of life. Through therapy, Ms. Arushi helps clients develop greater self-awareness, build confidence, strengthen emotional resilience, and cultivate a healthier relationship with themselves.

Trauma, Grief & Emotional Healing

Past experiences can continue to influence present-day emotions, relationships, and coping patterns. Ms. Arushi provides compassionate support to individuals processing trauma, grief, and significant life events while helping them move towards healing with sensitivity and care.

Approach to Therapy

Ms. Arushi believes there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. Every individual brings a unique story, and therapy should reflect that.

Her work integrates evidence-based therapeutic approaches including:

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
  • Humanistic Therapy
  • Mindfulness-Based Interventions

Rather than focusing only on symptom reduction, her sessions aim to help clients understand themselves more deeply, strengthen emotional resilience, improve relationships, and make meaningful changes that extend beyond the therapy room.

Rather than offering quick fixes, Ms. Arushi works with clients to build emotional resilience, improve self-understanding, strengthen relationships, and develop skills that continue to support them long after therapy ends.

If you’ve been thinking, “Maybe I should talk to someone,” but aren’t sure where to begin, Ms. Arushi believes you don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. You don’t need the perfect words or all the answers, just a willingness to take the first step. Sometimes, showing up is where healing begins
