About Tanishka
Tanishka Yadav is an ACA counsellor with seven years' experience working in Australia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, family conflict and depression. She aims to meet people where they are and speak plainly about what they are facing.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges the courage it takes to begin. Her approach is flexible and practical. She tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on identifying triggers, developing coping skills and building clearer communication in strained relationships. Tanishka pays attention to emotional patterns like abandonment and attachment issues. She also addresses concerns such as body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity and isolation.
Practical topics such as money worries and life purpose are included when they affect mood and daily functioning. She works in English and Hindi, and helps people from diverse backgrounds in Australia. Her experience includes helping carers manage stress related to caregiving and supporting people through divorce and separation.
The tone is warm, respectful and direct. Sessions aim to be collaborative. Clients can expect a blend of short-term practical tools and longer conversations about underlying patterns.
The goal is to leave each session with something useful to try between meetings.
How practical approaches translate to online sessions
Many people who contact her benefit from short-term, evidence-based techniques that focus on coping skills and behaviour change. One approach focuses on teaching clear coping strategies to reduce anxiety and manage cravings; it helps with day-to-day symptoms and urges. Another approach looks at patterns in relationships and attachment - identifying recurring behaviours and trying new ways to communicate and set boundaries. These approaches suit problems like anxiety, relationship strain and difficulties with mood.Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about what matters to the client, try a few techniques and adjust the plan as progress and preferences become clear. Clients help set goals and decide whether to focus on immediate coping or deeper pattern work.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversation. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier during busy days. Live chat and text messaging work for quick check-ins, shorter reflections or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or study commitments.
