About

Divia Ahuja is a Clinical Psychologist with a strong academic and professional background. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from University College London, a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychological Counselling from Glasgow Caledonian University, and a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from United Arab Emirates University. She is also trained in the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule 2 (ADOS-2), allowing her to work effectively with individuals on the autism spectrum.
With over 10 years of experience in mental health, Divia uses a flexible and personalized approach to therapy. She helps clients with a wide range of challenges, including body image issues, stress, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, grief, anger management, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and sexual health concerns. Divia also offers expertise in psychometric testing, career counseling, mindfulness, and couples therapy.
Her passion for mental health began when she worked as a special educator, where she saw how small changes could make a big difference in children’s lives. This inspired her to focus on helping people overcome challenges and grow. She finds great joy in seeing her clients make progress and take steps towards better mental health.
Divia combines different therapy techniques, including Humanistic Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), along with solution-focused and compassion-based strategies. She emphasizes the importance of understanding emotions and building healthy coping skills to help her clients achieve their full potential. Her approach also considers the mental, physical, social, and spiritual aspects of a person’s life to promote overall well-being.
In addition to her clinical work, Divia is a passionate speaker and advocate for mental health. She has spoken at events for major organizations such as MercerMarsh Benefits, Henkel, Lufthansa, Cisco, Honeywell International, Dubai Investments, and LVMH (Louis Vuitton). Her topics include managing stress, recovering from the pandemic, supporting parents during lockdowns, and mental health awareness. She has also spoken at the Sharjah International Book Fair about cyberbullying and participated in discussions on empowering women. Divia is committed to raising awareness and helping people lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
