About Me

My name is Prachi Savani

I'm a South Asian therapist, born in Kenya, with life experiences in the UK and now Australia. I understand the challenges many face in balancing cultural expectations with personal needs, aspirations, and dreams. I have had 8 years of experience in supporting people navigate their mental health in private hospitals, government-funded clinics, and private practices.

I believe therapy is not just about addressing symptoms; it’s about understanding your story and the context of your experiences. Together, we will embark on a journey to explore your narrative, empowering you to find clarity and direction. I am committed to meeting you at your pace, ensuring that our work feels meaningful and manageable.

Outside of my practice, I work at a digital mental health clinic supervising therapists as they support clients with various mental health challenges.

When I am not working, I am dancing, watching netflix or playing board games. I love a chocolatey coffee - but only before 12pm!

I have completed intensive training with Dr. Linehan’s team and have had the privilege of working alongside, and learning from, pioneers of DBT in Australia/New Zealand.
