Online counselling for adults, in Malayalam and English
You keep things running for everyone else: work, home, family, expectations. But lately it feels harder. You're tired in a way sleep doesn't fix, worried most of the time, or just not yourself.
Adult counselling is time that belongs to you: a private place to slow down, be honest and work out what would help.

Do I need a diagnosis to start?
No. You can come with anything that's weighing on you, big or small.
Can you prescribe medication?
No. Psychologists don't prescribe medicine. If medication might help, we'll suggest seeing a psychiatrist and can keep supporting you alongside them.
I live in the Gulf. Can I still book?
Yes. We'll find a time that suits your time zone, and you can talk in Malayalam if you prefer.
