How i work in therapy

I follow a trauma-informed, eclectic approach, meeting each person where they are and honouring their pace, experiences, and inner strengths. My work draws from evidence-based methods such as:

EXAT – to use creative expression to process emotions
REBT – to understand how beliefs influence emotions and choices
IFS – to work with inner parts with curiosity and compassion
SFT – to build on strengths and practical solutions
CBT – to recognise and change unhelpful thought patterns

My work focuses on helping you feel more resourced, regulated, and confident in navigating life’s challenges.

Who i work with

Individuals

Couples

Teens and young adults

Older adults (including home visits)

What clients say about me

I felt heard and supported

I’ve been going to Mitsu Clinic for therapy, and I’ve had a great experience - especially with my therapist, Bijal. Every session leaves me feeling heard, supported, and more grounded. The clinic itself is also very welcoming, clean, and professionally run, which adds to the overall sense of comfort and trust. If you’re looking for therapy that feels both deeply personal and professionally supportive, I highly recommend Mitsu Clinic.

Positive change, session by session

We visited Dr. Bijal Shah regarding our relationship. She is a very good doctor and understood our problems very well. She conducted couple therapy for us, and we noticed positive changes in every session. Thank you so much to Mitsu clinic.

Truly seen and supported

Mitsu and Dr Bijal Shah have been absolute lifesavers for me. From the get-go, I felt seen and heard in a way that was both surprising and relieving. Dr Bijal has this incredible ability to create a safe space where I can be vulnerable and work through the tough stuff. The centre is a peaceful oasis with a warm and welcoming vibe. If you're considering therapy, I wholeheartedly recommend them.
