Deeksha Upadhyay
Founder, Head Psychologist
UpLife
Hi, I’m Deeksha Upadhyay, a psychospiritual scientist and eclectic therapist.
With 7+ years of experience, my approach fuses modern psychology with ancient wisdom, bridging the mind, energy, and consciousness to create holistic wellness plans tailored to each individual. I also integrate behavioral psychotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), sports psychology, and parenting strategies into deeply transformative therapy. As the founder of UpLife, I have facilitated 80+ workshops and 6,500+ sessions, guiding individuals through emotional unblocking, mindset shifts, and inner alignment. Therapy with me isn’t just about healing—it’s about awakening your fullest potential by balancing science and spirituality.
Let's co-create a path toward deep, lasting transformation.
Hello, I’m Smriti Agrawal, a passionate and empathetic psychologist who believes in the unique strengths each individual carries. I hold a Master’s degree in Applied Psychology (Clinical and Counselling Practice) from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), Mumbai.
My approach to therapy is integrative and tailored to your unique needs. I work from a trauma-informed lens and draw from various modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Humanistic and Narrative approaches, as well as solution-focused and strengths-based techniques. I am also a queer-affirmative and neurodivergent-friendly practitioner.
Therapy for me is a powerful space where people can formulate their own stories, build emotional resilience, and move toward meaningful change. I believe therapy holds the potential to help you feel grounded in your self-worth, make informed choices, and navigate life with more clarity and self-compassion. Through the therapeutic space, I hope to offer you the deep knowing that "I am not alone in this." You deserve to be heard, to feel safe, and to be met with empathy and understanding.
Hi I’m Riya, an RCI-licensed psychologist & Associate Psychologist at UpLife.
I see therapy as a collaborative and supportive process, one that helps you reconnect with your inner strengths, make sense of your experiences, and move forward in ways that feel meaningful to you.
I believe that every person carries inner wisdom, even when it feels buried, confusing, or out of reach.
My approach is warm, integrative, and flexible and shaped around your needs. I strive to build a therapeutic space rooted in safety, compassion, and collaboration, where we can work together at your pace, toward healing, insight, and meaningful change.
Hi, I’m Vidushi Arora, a psychologist at UpLife.
I provide empathetic, client-centred therapy to support individuals facing anxiety, stress, self-esteem issues, emotional regulation difficulties, body image concerns, relationship challenges, and academic pressure.
My approach is eclectic and trauma-informed, integrating Schema Therapy, REBT, and Humanistic principles to create a personalised, holistic therapy experience. I believe therapy should resonate with your unique worldview, helping you uncover inner strengths and navigate life’s challenges with confidence. At UpLife, I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where we work together to create meaningful change.
I am Gayatri Thakre, an associate educator at UpLife with an M.A. in Applied Psychology from Tata Institute of Social Science (TISS) specialising in practical psychology education that bridges the gap between theory and real-world application.
My teaching integrates mental health, counselling, psychotherapy, and behavioural science, ensuring students gain hands-on skills and conceptual clarity for careers in therapy, research, and applied psychology. Through experiential learning, case studies, and critical thinking exercises, I help students master human behaviour, cognitive psychology, and emotional well-being. At UpLife, we focus on holistic psychology education, preparing future professionals for the evolving field of mental wellness and psychological practice.
Join me at UpLife to explore psychology, therapy techniques, and mental health education in an engaging, career-focused environment.
