About Kavitha
Kavitha Devarajan is an AASW social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, career concerns and depression. She speaks English, Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam and brings three years of clinical experience to her sessions. She aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion.
Kavitha keeps sessions practical and conversational. She listens first to understand what matters most to each person. Together they set clear goals and try small, manageable steps between sessions to build confidence and momentum.
How Kavitha works
Her work includes supporting people facing attachment concerns, body image worries, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, and workplace difficulties. She also helps with feelings of guilt or shame, loneliness, finding life purpose and issues common to women. Kavitha adapts her approach to the person in front of her rather than following one fixed method.
She explains options and tailors the plan to fit a person’s goals and daily life. That way the work feels relevant and doable. People can expect steady encouragement and practical strategies during sessions.
Kavitha supports homework tasks, communication practice and reflection so skills learned in session can be used in real life. Her tone is calm, warm and direct, aimed at helping people move forward step by step.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Two common evidence-based techniques Kavitha uses are goal-focused problem solving and behavioural activation. Goal-focused problem solving breaks larger worries into smaller, achievable steps and helps people practise new responses. Behavioural activation encourages planning activities that lift mood and reduce avoidance, which can help with depression and low motivation.Another helpful method is skills-based communication practice. This involves rehearsing clear ways to express needs and boundaries, which can improve relationship and workplace interactions. Each method is explained simply in session so people understand why they are trying it and what to do between appointments.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kavitha will discuss options, review what works and adjust plans based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. Together they pick techniques that fit the person's daily life and priorities.
Online therapy modes available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people talk face to face from wherever they are, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins, shorter updates or when typing feels easier than talking. These options provide flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving or other commitments.
