About Ishita
Ishita Sharma is an AASW social worker with seven years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationships, family hurts, trauma and low self-esteem. She writes and speaks plainly, and she focuses on helping people feel understood and rebuild confidence. She works in a trauma-informed and relational way.
That means she pays attention to how past hurts affect current relationships. Sessions aim to help people see recurring patterns, notice what they need, and practise different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Her practice is shaped by a culturally and linguistically diverse background and by lived experience. Ishita uses that perspective to help people untangle cultural expectations from personal needs. This can be useful when relationships or family roles feel confusing or painful.
In sessions she works collaboratively. Conversations are guided by the person's goals and paced to feel manageable. She helps clients name feelings, try small changes, and build skills for clearer communication and more stable self-worth.
People who come for support often want practical steps and emotional relief. Ishita offers time to talk through what matters, identify realistic next steps, and strengthen the resources someone already has. Her approach aims to make progress understandable and achievable.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
She describes her work as trauma-informed and relational, which means sessions look at how past injury affects present relationships and emotional reactions. This approach helps when anxiety or family dynamics feel tied to earlier hurts and trust needs rebuilding.She also follows a client-centred style that keeps the conversation focused on each person's goals and pace. In practice this involves collaborating on small experiments and communication skills to reduce anxiety and improve relationship clarity.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match their goals, everyday routine and comfort with different formats. That collaborative selection is reviewed over time to keep treatment useful and relevant.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face conversation and longer work, phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
