Maukthika Akkiraju
MSc Psychological Research (Edinburgh) · MSc Health Psychology (Hyderabad)
Hello! I’m Maukthika. Growing up, I observed the people around me and learned to appreciate how unique and intricate their lives and mindsets are. Armed with that awareness, I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space where your unique mind and identity are not just welcomed, but valued.
I hold an MSc in Psychological Research from the University of Edinburgh and an integrated MSc in Health Psychology from the University of Hyderabad, and I’m a certified TEAM-CBT therapist — skilled in practical, evidence-based techniques to reshape thoughts and behaviours. I have experience working with both children and adults through a range of emotional, behavioural, and mood-related challenges.
In my time off I’m lost in books, carefully crafted playlists, and new recipes found on social media — happiest when I’m trying something new and adding another hobby to the pile.
