About Disha
Disha Benn-Peay is a licensed independent social worker with clinical practice (LISW-CP) who brings 22 years of professional experience to her work. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. Disha uses a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate style in sessions.
She helps people who are worn down by caregiving duties, chronic pain or illness, and the pressure to stay in control.
How Disha works
She also supports clients exploring forgiveness, life purpose, and self-love, and she attends to issues that commonly affect women. Conversations are shaped to a person's needs and goals rather than following a fixed script. In sessions she works collaboratively to create a clear plan.
That plan is adjusted over time based on what helps and what does not. People can expect direct talk about practical steps they can try between meetings. Disha offers several ways to connect including video, phone, live chat, and text messaging.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and costs vary with location and therapist availability. She is based in South Carolina and works in English. Starting involves selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and then scheduling according to therapist availability.
Disha emphasizes steady progress and supports people through the often difficult first steps toward change.

Online support options
Approach-focused online care and flexible session options
Disha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional support. One common approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and lift mood. This helps people who feel stuck by worry or low motivation. Another approach centers on building self-compassion and clearer personal values to guide decisions and improve self-esteem. That work can be useful for people dealing with life transitions, caregiver stress, or chronic health challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Disha will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is working and what needs to change.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options add flexibility to help people make steady progress without disrupting daily life.
