Counselling in India

Sessions are held by secure video, so you can be anywhere in India. What matters is that you tell us you're here, because it decides who is able to work with you.

We check first. Practice is restricted here. We confirm what your counsellor must hold before matching you, and we tell you what it is.

Who is allowed to work with you

Clinical psychologists are licensed by the Rehabilitation Council of India. Counselling more broadly is not licensed, and the Mental Healthcare Act 2017 governs how care is provided.

Whoever we match you with, you'll be told which registration they hold and their number, so you can check it against the register yourself before booking. The wider picture for Asia is on the Asia page.

Time zones

India runs on IST. We confirm your local time in writing before your first session.

If you need help now

Call your local emergency number. Befrienders Worldwide lists helplines by country at befrienders.org, and the International Association for Suicide Prevention keeps a directory at iasp.info.

We are not a crisis service and cannot respond urgently or out of hours. More options are on our crisis page.

What we work with

The same work, wherever you are

Trauma Therapy

When something overwhelming happens, your body does what it needs to do to get you through it, and then doesn't always switch off afterwards. We work with that directly, at whatever pace you can manage.

EMDR Therapy

EMDR helps your mind finish processing something it couldn't process at the time. It's one of the most researched trauma treatments there is, and it usually asks far less of you than telling the story over and over.

ADHD Therapy

You've probably tried the apps and the planners already. We'll build the practical side with you, and we'll also work on what tends to go unaddressed: the years of assuming you should find all this easier.
