Counselling Psychologist
3 years of experience
Therapy with me involves cultivating practical and effective treatment strategies that help manage symptoms and promote overall well-being.  Hi, I’m Neha, a proficient counseling psychologist with a rich therapeutic journey spanning over 3 years and helping numerous clients with varied populations from ages 18 and onwards. Throughout my practice, I have addressed a comprehensive range of concerns, such as Anxiety issues, Depression, Stress, Relationship issues, Phobias, Grief, and other mental health disorders. In my practice, I employ an eclectic approach of evidence-based techniques alongside empathy and acceptance to provide effective and personalized treatment. I firmly believe in the concept of holistic healing, which involves addressing the emotional, cognitive, and behavioral aspects that contribute to an individual's comprehensive well-being and growth. Whether you are processing painful emotions, healing from past trauma, looking to develop healthier behavioral habits, or seeking greater self-awareness, I aim to understand that every client's needs, abilities, and receptiveness are unique. I am passionate about encouraging individuals, couples, and families to cultivate self-awareness and build healthier and meaningful relationships. In my practice, I employ a diverse blend of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Mindfulness and Wellness practices, Existential Approaches, Narrative Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These techniques are implemented within a safe, supportive environment where clients feel understood, valued, and empowered. I commit to working collaboratively with clients to develop constructive coping strategies, enabling them to unlock their fullest potential and create a life of balance, fulfillment, and meaning. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate their unique journeys toward healing and growth. Together, we can develop healthier relationships with ourselves and others, enhance our emotional resilience, and achieve positive coping mechanisms for a more authentic and fulfilling life. Through our work, you will gain the tools and insights needed to overcome challenges and embrace a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Ms Sakina Saraiya

Counselling Psychologist
3 years of experience
In my therapy sessions, I aim to make a meaningful difference in helping individuals achieve a sense of well-being and empowerment, while addressing various concerns. Hi, I'm Sakina, and my life philosophy is perfectly encapsulated by Carl Rogers: "The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination." Thus, I view therapy as a powerful tool for healing, growth, self-awareness, and self-compassion. In sessions with clients, I focus on mindfulness, compassion, connecting with your body, and deep healing. I have over 3100 hours of experience working with individuals on diverse concerns, including anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, relationships (premarital and marital), emotional regulation, self-development, and clinical issues such as eating disorders, substance abuse, and personality disorders. As a trauma-informed, queer affirmative therapist with an eclectic approach, I view therapy as a safe and collaborative space where you can express, explore, and learn more about yourself and the world around you. I believe a huge part of how successful therapy is depends on the therapeutic relationship between a client and therapist. To foster the same, I create a deep connection and trust throughout the sessions, focusing on narratives and the experience of the client within the therapy space and outside. Every interaction is unique, and I strive to adapt my approach to fit the uniqueness of every individual client.  In addition to my work with adults, I have training in working with children with special needs. I'm passionate about research, teaching, and volunteering, and I have completed several research papers on topics such as childhood trauma, self-compassion, and generational differences in mental health. In my therapy sessions, I aim to make a meaningful difference, no matter how small.

Seeking Therapy in India

As India grapples with the complexities of modern life, the need for holistic mental health support and emotional well-being has become paramount. Indian therapists seamlessly bring together mindfulness, intricately woven into their culture, and blend it with therapeutic interventions, making the experience of receiving therapy in India holistic and unique.

In the past few years, India has experienced a remarkable shift in its approach towards mental health, fostering a welcoming environment for those seeking professional support. Mental health professionals in India, hailing from prestigious institutions like NIMHANS and IHBAS, are actively championing therapy and destigmatizing the conversations around mental health. This has enabled individuals to address their challenges and actively pursue transformative growth - one therapy session at a time.

How to Choose the Right Therapist in India?

Determining the best therapist for yourself requires time and patience, as it depends on your personal needs and preferences. Listed below are a few steps that could help you make an informed decision and choose the best therapist in India:

  • Establish your needs

    Understand your goals and the outcome you wish to achieve through therapy. Read about the different areas of mental health and identify the concerns or symptoms you would want to address in therapy. This will help you find therapists who specialize in your areas of concern.

  • Check qualifications and experience

    Consider looking up the relevant educational qualifications (e.g., a Master's or M.Phil. degree in Psychology) and professional experience of different therapists. Check if they are registered with a professional body, such as the Indian Association of Clinical Psychologists (IACP) or the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI).

  • Review therapeutic approach

    Read about the different therapeutic interventions and choose a therapist who practices an approach that resonates with you.

  • Filter by your preferred language

    At DocVita, we have a wide network of professionals who speak 17 different languages. You can easily consult a therapist who speaks your native language, allowing you to express yourself freely and find success in therapy.

  • Consider Location, Availability, and Cost

    Factors like location, availability, and affordability must be taken into consideration. Additionally, you can also seek therapists who offer online sessions.

  • Prioritize your comfort

    Choose a therapist you feel comfortable with and who you believe can ease your therapeutic journey. It's important to feel a sense of trust and rapport with your therapist.

  • Look for therapists offering introductory calls

    DocVita offers 15-minute introductory calls to help set the foundation for future sessions. These can also help you decide whether or not a therapist is an ideal match for you.

It's important to remember that it may take a while to find a therapist who is a good match for your needs, and it's perfectly fine to switch to a different therapist if you feel that your current one isn't meeting your expectations. The primary objective is to locate a therapist who can offer you the support you require to attain your mental health objectives.
