Deshara opened My Life Counselling in 2019 after working in the NHS practicing CBT. Combining a range of therapeutic modalities including psychodynamic, person-centred EMDR, CBT, Gestalt and many others, Deshara had a holistic view in mind to ensure clients receive the right therapy to make their desired changes.

Deshara provides psychological therapies and assessments for surgical patients including cosmetic surgery and bariatric patients. Deshara works alongside surgeons nationally to support patients with managing expectations, motivations and recovery.

Deshara provides medico-legal counselling and CBT for patients that have had a personal injury or accident. Full comprehensive reports are written and sent back to insurers.

Deshara started adding BACP counsellors, psychologists, CBT therapists, psychotherapists to her panel to offer a wider range of services and a better matching process for clients across the UK.


We are a team of over 120 therapists based across England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Given the demand for therapy, self-help resources have been made available for clients with mild to moderate mental health symptoms to practice therapy techniques by themselves.
