Welcome

Hi! I’m Akash Mohan.
I am Akash Mohan, a counselling psychologist, queer affirmative practitioner and a trained trauma-informed mental health practitioner. This space exists for people who live at the intersections of caste, queerness, trauma, gender, grief and resistance. Therapy here is a conversation and a co-creation rather than a diagnosis or a direction. It is a place to come home to yourself rather than escape from yourself.

A little bit of context about my work.

Therapy Beyond Labels
Therapy Beyond Labels is rooted in post modern, narrative and anti oppressive frameworks. It recognises that distress often comes from what has happened to you and the systems you inhabit, not from what is wrong with you. Together we explore your stories, contexts and relationships to find meaning and possibilities. You will not find checklists or predefined boxes. You will find listening, collaboration and care.
My Approach to Therapy
Therapy with me is not about fixing you. It’s about sitting with what feels stuck, hidden, or hard to hold—and finding space to listen. I don’t start with a diagnosis. I start with your story.
My work is rooted in a postmodern, narrative, and trauma-informed approach that centers care, choice, and collaboration. I reject one-size-fits-all models and instead invite you into a space where your complexities are welcome, your voice leads, and your identities are not just affirmed but celebrated.
Whether we’re exploring relational dynamics, navigating trauma, or unlearning the systems that shaped your story, therapy here is not a path toward normalcy—it’s a space for meaning-making, for witnessing, for reclamation. I work with clients across sexualities, genders, and life contexts, and I’m committed to showing up in ways that are queer-affirmative, anti-caste, anti-pathologizing, and deeply human.
If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t fit into boxes—or never wanted to—this space might be for you.

“This is not neutral ground. It’s chosen ground. A space where power is named, context is honored, and you are never asked to leave parts of yourself at the door.”
