  • Do I need a diagnosis to start therapy?
    Not at all! Many people come to therapy for clarity, growth, or support—not because of a formal diagnosis.
  • What kind of issues can I come to you with?
    Anything on your mind, anxiety, stress, depression, burnout, trauma, relationship issues, or simply feeling stuck. No issue is too big or too small.
  • What kinds of therapy do you offer?
    We use a range of evidence-based therapies like CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based approaches, and person-centered therapy—always tailored to your unique needs.
  • What exactly does a clinical psychologist do?
    A clinical psychologist helps people work through emotional, behavioral, or mental challenges through talk therapy. We’re not medical doctors, so we don’t prescribe medication, we’re here to listen, support, and guide you using proven therapeutic methods.
  • How is a psychologist different from a psychiatrist or counselor?
    Psychiatrists prescribe medication, psychologists offer therapy. Counselors may offer guidance or short-term support, while psychologists often have deeper clinical training.
  • Can I take a break or stop therapy?
    Absolutely. Therapy is always your choice, and you’re in control of your process.
  • What happens in the first session?
    We’ll chat about what’s bringing you in, your goals, and your story. No pressure to share everything—just what you’re comfortable with.
  • How often will we meet?
    Most people start with weekly sessions. Over time, the frequency can change depending on your needs.
  • Is therapy confidential?
    Yes—your privacy is very important. The only exceptions are rare safety situations, which we’ll talk about upfront.
  • How long does therapy take?
    It really depends on you. Some people come for a few weeks, others prefer ongoing support. We’ll figure it out together.
  • Do you work with kids, teens, or couples?
    Yes! We support individuals, couples, teens, and families. Please check with us for the right fit.
  • How do I book an appointment?
    You can book online, call us, or send a quick message—we’ll get back to you with available slots.
  • Are sessions available in other languages?
    Yes—we offer therapy in Hindi, English and Marathi. Just let us know what you’re most comfortable with.
  • How can I support someone who’s going to therapy?
    Just be there—listen, be patient, and let them know they’re not alone. Encouragement means everything.
  • Do you offer family or couples therapy?
    Yes—we offer sessions designed to help families and couples build better understanding and communication.
  • Can I bring someone with me to therapy?
    If you’d like to bring a loved one for support, we’re open to that! Just let us know beforehand.
