About Kritika

Kritika Kad is an ACA counsellor practising in Australia with four years of experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting strains, self-esteem, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Hindi and aim to address everyday pressures rather than only clinical labels.

Her work focuses on practical conversation and problem-solving. She helps people talk through communication problems and family difficulties. Migration and multicultural concerns are also part of her experience, so she is used to discussing cultural adjustments and related stressors.

In sessions she listens for what is most urgent and what can be changed in daily life. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build clearer thinking and healthier routines. That might include practising new ways to speak about needs, trying small behavioural changes, or developing coping strategies for social anxiety and workplace stress.

Kritika supports people who want to improve self-esteem and self-love, or who need help managing transitions such as moving country or changing jobs. Her approach is person-focused and practical - working toward clearer choices and steadier routines rather than abstract theories.

People who choose to work with her usually begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. If you want to explore parenting worries or relationship strain, she can help you sort what to try next.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Evidence-based techniques often used in practice include short-term cognitive approaches and behavioural strategies. Cognitive approaches help identify unhelpful thoughts and test them against reality, which can reduce anxiety and improve decision-making. Behavioural strategies focus on small, practical changes in routine or interaction patterns, useful for managing stress, social anxiety and workplace issues.

Another common method involves skills-based communication work. This teaches clear ways to state needs, set boundaries and repair misunderstandings. It can be helpful for people concerned about relationship strain or parenting conversations. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try, adapting them to the client’s goals and everyday life rather than following a fixed plan.

Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. The main practical benefit of online sessions is flexibility - they can fit into work breaks, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep appointments during busy weeks. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. The therapist will discuss which approach and format fit your schedule and aims during the first session.
