Rutuja Thukarul, MA
Psychotherapist
“Welcome to a space where your individuality is honoured, and your story is seen with deep compassion. My therapy practice is rooted in a multicultural and decolonised perspective that values diverse identities and experiences, particularly in the face of systemic challenges that can be limiting and oppressive. I am committed to fostering a trauma-sensitive, affirming environment where clients from all backgrounds can heal, explore, and grow. In our journey together, I am here to support you through a broad spectrum of challenges, whether you’re navigating trauma, processing grief, fostering personal growth, understanding neurodivergence, or working through psychopathy. Additionally, I work closely with clients facing relational dynamics, intrapersonal and interpersonal struggles, work-related stress, and questions of identity, especially when impacted by marginalisation. I incorporate the following intervention systems based on your personality, concerns and therapy goals: psychodynamic, humanistic-existential, behavioural, trauma-focused, multicultural, CBT-REBT, DBT, queer-affirmative, and Gestalt, we will tailor a path that resonates with your unique needs, empowering you to move forward with resilience and a deeper connection to your sense of self.”
