Online counselling

Online counselling in India

Online counselling means talking to a licensed counselor over video, without commuting anywhere. It works for people dealing with anxiety, relationship strain, or a period that feels hard to carry alone. You choose who you talk to, then book a time that suits you.

How online counselling works

You browse counselor profiles, see their qualifications and rates, then pick an open time that suits you. Your session is confirmed as soon as you book it.

Sessions happen over video, through a link that opens in your browser. There is nothing to download and no separate account to set up.

Times are shown in your own timezone, so what you see is exactly when your session starts, wherever you are joining from.
