A space to return to yourself

Mental Health Entrepreneur of the Year,
2022

Hi, I'm Bharati, the founder of the
Integrative Diverse Humanistic Arts Organisation. (IDHA)

This is a Trauma-informed, neuroaffirming Expressive Arts and Movement Space.

Here I support individuals and groups in gently reconnecting with their bodies, emotions, and inner rhythm through Expressive Arts, Dance & Movement Therapy, Somatic Awareness at a pace that feels safe and meaningful.

I also work with children through play-based and creative approaches that support expression and regulation.

I founded IDHA with a vision to create a world where the arts become a bridge for healing, inclusion and self-expression. Where individuals can explore, express and heal in ways that honour who they are.
