Not Sure Whether You Need Counselling? Start with a Free Mental Wellbeing Check-In.
Take a few minutes to reflect on how you have been feeling over the last two weeks. Your responses may help you identify areas where you could benefit from additional support.
This is a free, informal wellbeing check-in created for self-reflection. It is not a validated psychological test, a diagnosis, or a substitute for professional assessment.
For adults 18+. For teenagers, a parent or guardian can message Richa to arrange support.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens in the first session?
The first session is a calm, confidential conversation about what brings you here and what you hope to change. Together we decide how to proceed. A one-hour session with psychological assessment is also available if you would like a deeper starting point.
Is counselling confidential?
Yes. What you share in sessions is kept private. The only exception is when there is a serious risk to your safety or someone else’s, in which case support from appropriate people may be needed.
Are sessions online or in person?
Both. In-person sessions are held at Yatharth Hospital (Model Town), North Delhi Nursing Home (Ashok Vihar), IVF Ridge (Malkaganj) and Fortis Hospital (Shalimar Bagh). Online sessions are available for anyone in India or abroad.
How many sessions will I need?
It varies by person and concern. Many people begin with 4 sessions and decide how to continue after that. We review progress together as we go.
Do you work with teenagers?
Yes. A parent or guardian books the session and gives consent, and attends the first session. After that, teenagers have a private space to speak. Confidentiality is maintained except where there is a safety concern.
What is your cancellation and rescheduling policy?
Please let us know at least 24 hours before if you cannot attend. We will reschedule at a time that works for both of us.
What if I am in crisis?
This service is not for emergencies. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call Tele-MANAS at 14416 (free, 24x7) or go to your nearest hospital.
Is the free check-in a diagnosis?
No. It is an informal tool for self-reflection. It is not a validated psychological test, a diagnosis, or a substitute for professional assessment, and its score cannot tell you whether you have a mental health condition.
