Bhakta is a registered social worker and certified sex therapist. She has worked as a lecturer and supervisor at the City University of Hong Kong and Hong Kong Baptist University over ten years. During her time as a family life education officer at the Boys' and Girls' Clubs Association (BGCA), she pursued a master’s degree in family counselling. Over the years, Bhakta has participated in extensive training in Gestalt Therapy and psychodrama therapy, as well as various exchange programs in the United States, Austria, and Japan.

In 2016, Bhakta encountered sandplay therapy and felt deeply inspired to pursue and develop this modality further. Fortunately, the secondary school she worked at provided her with opportunities to conduct sandplay therapy for students with special educational needs (SEN). This laid the foundation for her private practice, which she established in 2018.

Bhakta has completed 100 hours of sandplay training under Dr. Alexander Esterhuyzen and attended various workshops led by international teachers, including the 2018 International Teaching Workshop (ITW) in Malta. She has undergone personal sandplay therapy with Ms. Adelina Wong and received supervision mainly from Ms. Maria Kendler,  Dr. Amy Leung, and Mr. George Kwok. Bhakta has written symbol papers on the themes of the "Unicorn: the inner guides within“ and the "Genie: the mentor within“. For her final case study, she explored the dynamics of inner opposites, with a particular focus on shadow work.

In 2022, Bhakta relocated to Okinawa and established a sandplay therapy room. She is now studying under Dr. Yasunari Yamanaka, delving deeper into sandplay therapy, MSSM and LMT. Bhakta is enthusiastic about continuing her sandplay therapy work, whether in Okinawa or during her visits to Hong Kong, and finds great joy in working in sandplay therapy.
