Ms. Shamim Deshmukh

Dr Shamim has been a true source of strength and healing for me. Through some of the most difficult moments of my life, she offered a safe, non-judgmental space where I could finally face my trauma and understand my anxiety with compassion instead of fear. Her warmth, patience, and gentle guidance have helped me find parts of myself I thought I had lost. I’m genuinely grateful for the support she has given me and the hope she helped me rebuild my life and see the life from whole new perspective.

I have been visiting Dr. Shamim for a while now, and I truly appreciate the clarity and perspective she brings. She helped me recognize certain patterns, understand the roots of my thoughts and reactions, and equipped me with simple, effective tools to navigate things better. Her questions often guided me toward the answers I was searching for, and her patience throughout the process has meant a lot. What stood out the most was her honesty, she suggested reducing or even stopping sessions when she felt I no longer needed them. That transparency and integrity really earned my trust.

Highly recommended

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Shamim. Not only do I feel much better after our sessions, but she also taught me valuable tools to navigate through life with greater clarity and confidence. Her approach is compassionate, insightful, and empowering. I’m very grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her.

It was a life changing experience with Dr. Shamim. She helped me navigate a difficult period with immense compassion and insight. Working with Shamim ji was a profoundly positive experience. I’ll say she is a true guide to me. Her patience and guidance was instrumental in helping me understand my own thoughts and emotions better. She provided me with the tools and perspective I needed to heal. I'm so grateful for her support that she created a safe space where I could finally be honest with myself.

Thank you so much Dr. Shamim.

I approached Dr Deshmukh to consult about a marital issue that I was going through and had three sessions of an hour each. My experience was fantastic. I came back heard, lighter and clearer in my head after each interaction. The consultations were virtual, but Practo does not have a drop down for virtual consultations, so I had to select a clinic.

I found Dr Deshmukh to be a person with a very positive demeanour who immediately put me at ease. She is a fantastic listener and takes copious notes which she also referred to during our discussions. This was of great help as it helped her to have a solid understanding of the issue, and our sessions to be very productive. She understood issues that I was facing and summarized/paraphrased her understanding at various points in time of the conversation to clarify to the utmost level herself. She was authentic and open- she helped me discover paths that I could take without expressing strong opinions about any herself- recognizing that everyone is different and must live with the choices they make. Simultaneously, she also helped me become a stronger person, helping me overcome some apprehensions about my own approach. I found myself very comfortable going into depth of the various choices that we discovered in the process. By understanding me and my perception of my wife's personality (I was alone in this process), she also helped set a realistic baseline of what I could expect in the relationship - helping do very effectively what I was struggling to accept.

I would strongly recommend Dr Deshmukh to anyone looking for therapy.

I honestly feel so lucky and grateful to have found my Dr Shamim, From the very first session, she made me feel truly heard, understood, and safe. She helped me navigate through my anxiety and years of suppressed emotions with so much compassion and wisdom. She’s given me so many helpful tools to manage my emotional state and guided me through some of the most challenging parts of my inner world.

**** ***** *** ** ******* ** *** **** *** ********** *** *** ******** ** ***** * ********* ***** She remembers everything I’ve shared, even weeks apart, and each session feels like we’re continuing a meaningful conversation, never missing a beat. That kind of connection is rare and so deeply healing.

I always leave our sessions feeling lighter, stronger, and more at peace with myself. I can't express how thankful I am to have crossed paths with her. She’s been a light in my life, and I will forever be grateful for the support and love she’s shown me.

Like many others, I googled for a psychologist to help deal with my negative thoughts; Dr. Shamim came with very high recommendations, moreover she looked very approachable and friendly in her pic, so I decided to give it a chance, thinking, what is the max that can happen. Boy, was I wrong!!

In the first meeting itself, she put me at complete ease. Moreover, what's interesting is she uses indirect techniques to get to the root of your problem, making it easier to open up to her; its almost like she is reading your mind.

She is patient, empathetic, and an amazing listener. Her "Inner Child Healing" sessions helped me eradicate my negative feelings from the root. She also provided me with numerous practical techniques that I continue to use, even though our sessions have ended (I honestly cant believe it went on for 4 months, time really flies)

I also would like to point out her disciplined approach in conducting the sessions; it gave me structure and familiarity, and the cherry on the cake was her punctuality; she values your time, in turn she values you!.

She is also an eternal learner, which is truly inspirational.

Thank you dear doctor for coming into my life and changing it for the better. I am eternally grateful to you; God bless.

Lots of love to Kia :)

I am writing this testimonial for Shamim Deshmukh of Oorja Counselling Center.

A few months ago, I had passed a referral to Shamimji for, a close acquaintance of mine (Name Witheld).

His parents had complained that he was having trouble with his academic performance and was unable to score good marks. Essentially, he was not able to focus on his studies.

After undergoing intensive counselling and therapy with Shamimji, I am very happy to say that he has scored over 85% in his 10th Standard SSC Board Examinations. His parents are overjoyed with this and have expressed their gratitude towards Shamim ma’am for her efforts and endeavor.

By working on his underlying emotional and other disturbances she has helped clear the pathway to his success and untied the knots that had previously held him back. SSC Board examinations and their results mark an important pivot in ones life, with far-reaching future implications.

Oorja Counselling Center has certainly helped my friend propel forward in life by unleashing his own OORJA!!

My 9 year old daughter got some skin infection on her legs and hand. Her Paedetrian prescribed some medicine but that didn't go. So with his reference we went to ask in speacilist. He said it was due to stress that she has got infected and prescribed a cream. However the same also didn't work so he gave a steroids for cure . We were reluctant to give and hence consulted another specialist who prescribed the same medicine. We were left with no option to give her. However even after a month there was no major difference in her infection. We knew shamim and thought should consult her to find out the reason for stress. During the first session it was identified that she had fear of unknown which was bothering her. In the next session she helped her to remove all the fear from her mind. Shamim is so friendly with kids that my otherwise reserved daughter was chatting with her like some of her own age. She gave her the confidence that there is no such fear and she is out of it. After her treatment next morning we were surprised to see her infection had reduced by 80℅ and the medicine have started working for her. It was truly a overnight miracle. We hd no idea a small session can do wonders. Thanks Shamim for all the help. You are doing a wonderful job and committed to a social cause which is need of time. Me and my husband thank you for all the help.

I have been undergoing regression therapy with shamim since May 18 primarily for inability 2 concentrate or focus on work. after resolving issues of current lifetime like childhood, etc., which made me realise how I was wasting my emotional energy and consequently not left with any energy 2 work, there were certain issues that were not getting resolved regarding obsessing over other ppl and further improvements in marital life. hence I underwent past life regression and understood the underlying reasons to some extent. however since the issue was not getting resolved fully, I requested shamim for further sessions and even requested her to consult her professional peers and being the thorough professional she is, she consulted with her peers and decided to apply "lacing" technique which is identifying the underlying reasons for a problem since the 1st lifetime it ever occurred. so she took me back approx 3 lifetimes and helped me understand the underlying causes and helped me address it thru energy exchange. some of her techniques were outrightly brilliant which really helped me to overcome my obsession largely and which lead to a significant improvement in marital life. there have been clearly visible improvements in work also. but taking time to effect since it takes 3 weeks for new connections and 3 months for new pathways to happen in the brain. further because of the past life issues eczema had started appearing on my fingers which got resolved largely now. (ailments like migraine, asthma, skin disorders, stomach and digestive system issues, throat, addictions, etc., are psychosomatic disorders that could have roots in past life). Many thanks to Shamim for helping me out of my issues. all that she requires is 100% co-operation from patients which is what determines how much time the cure will take. for ppl who need to take anti stress anxiety or depression meds or who carry unnecessary fears like fear of flying, or with addictions like drinking, etc., or with any psychosomatic ailments (any ailments in body but not getting cured over long time with all possible medical treatment) it's must to undergo regression therapy and past life if required. however a warning....do past life only if doctor suggests and issues warrant it not out of fad, etc.
