— Dr. Divya Singh  ·  Thrive By Therapy
Therapeutic Framework

A Multidimensional Approach to Care

Dr. Singh's practice integrates globally recognised evidence-based methodologies with deep cultural sensitivity — recognising that effective therapy must honour both clinical standards and personal context.

Comprehensive Understanding
Every person is a complex system of thoughts, emotions, behaviours, relationships, and cultural influences. Therapy begins with understanding the whole person — not just the symptoms.
Evidence-Based Practice
All interventions are grounded in internationally validated research. Data-driven decisions ensure the highest standards of care, while remaining adapted to individual needs and cultural contexts.
Cultural Sensitivity
Mental health care must acknowledge and respect diverse beliefs, values, and practices — particularly vital in a culturally rich country like India. Dr. Singh's bilingual assessment capabilities reflect this commitment.
Empowerment
Therapy equips individuals with tools for self-understanding and lasting change — skills that extend well beyond the therapeutic relationship into everyday life.
Accessibility & Equity
Quality mental health care should be available to all, regardless of socio-economic background. Pro bono initiatives and NGO collaborations reflect this core belief.
Multidimensional Diagnosis
Assessment draws on clinical interviews (SCID-5), standardised psychometric tools, behavioural observation, and collateral information from families — ensuring accurate, holistic understanding.
Core Therapeutic Methods

The Modalities We Use

Each modality is chosen based on the individual's needs, goals, and clinical profile — always evidence-based, always person-centred.

CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Helps individuals identify and restructure negative thought patterns, replacing them with healthier, more adaptive cognitive strategies. Highly effective for anxiety, depression, and OCD.
DBT
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Combines cognitive-behavioural techniques with mindfulness and acceptance strategies. Particularly effective for emotional dysregulation, BPD, and self-destructive behaviours.
REBT
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy
Focuses on identifying irrational beliefs and replacing them with rational, flexible thinking. An active, directive therapy developed at the Albert Ellis Institute, where Dr. Singh trained.
Trauma-Informed
Trauma-Informed Practices
An integrated framework that recognises the pervasive impact of trauma on mental health. Care is delivered with safety, trust, and empowerment at the forefront — ensuring no individual is re-traumatised in the process of healing.
ABA / IBI
Applied Behavior Analysis
A structured, evidence-based approach for children with Autism and neurodevelopmental disabilities. Dr. Singh is certified in IBI & ABA Intervention from the Geneva Centre for Autism, Canada.
Psychometric
Psychological Assessment
Internationally standardised, culturally competent, and bilingual assessments — including SCID-5, MBTI, and psycho-educational tools — with reports known for high reliability and accuracy.
Psycho-Oncology
Cancer & Grief Support
Group and individual therapy for cancer patients, family members, and bereaved individuals — informed by both clinical expertise and Dr. Singh's own lived experience as a cancer survivor.
