Kavitha Devarajan

Kavitha Devarajan is an AASW social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, career uncertainty and depression. She speaks English, Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam. Kavitha offers a calm, respectful presence and focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier. Taking the first step can feel hard and she aims to provide steady support through that process.

In sessions she listens first, then works with each person to set simple goals. Conversations are tailored to what matters most to the client, whether that is improving confidence, managing workplace stress, or rebuilding connection after a relationship upset. She pays attention to how attachment, body image and caregiving demands can shape feelings and choices.

Kavitha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to suit individual needs. She aims for short, clear plans and skills people can use between sessions. She also addresses chronic pain, long-term illness and disability as they relate to mood and daily functioning.

Her approach is warm and practical. She encourages self-compassion, clearer communication and small experiments that build confidence. Clients can expect collaborative planning and regular review of progress.

Kavitha’s background includes three years of professional experience in Australia as an AASW social worker. That experience informs a straightforward style focused on problem-solving and emotional understanding. If you want a down-to-earth therapist who speaks multiple languages, she may be a good fit.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Many of the evidence-based techniques Kavitha uses focus on clear skills and conversation. One common approach teaches practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing, pacing activities and breaking problems into manageable steps. These techniques help when daily worry or work pressure feels overwhelming.

Another useful approach looks at relationships and attachment patterns. This involves mapping how past experiences shape current reactions and practising different ways of communicating and setting boundaries. It can help with relationship tensions and social anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kavitha will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust plans together. She aims to choose techniques that suit the client's preferences and life demands rather than imposing a single method.

If you want to use online sessions, please confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also offer flexibility for different days and schedules while still focusing on the same practical skills and conversational work used in face-to-face appointments.
