Bengaluru

A clinical psychologist in Bengaluru — without the drive across the city.

If you searched “clinical psychologist near me” from anywhere in Bengaluru, here’s the honest answer: I’m based in this city, and sessions happen online, over video. You’re seen by an RCI-registered clinical psychologist with NIMHANS training and 12+ years of practice — from your own quiet corner, not a waiting room across town.

Online, on purpose

Based in Bengaluru. Online by design.

The practice is fully online — a choice, not a compromise. In this city, a six-kilometre appointment can swallow two evening hours, and therapy shouldn’t depend on what the Outer Ring Road is doing at 6 pm. Over video, the session starts when you sit down — in Whitefield, Indiranagar, Jayanagar, Hebbal or HSR.

Working with someone based here still counts for something. Same time zone, so no odd-hour slots to bend your week around. And the context doesn’t need explaining — the deadlines and the commute, the family a floor above or a flight away, what it takes to say “I’m seeing a psychologist” out loud. Sessions run in English, Malayalam, or the mix your thoughts actually arrive in.

New to video sessions? Here’s how online sessions work — the setup, the privacy, the honest evidence. And if the first step feels big, what a first session is like is written down, step by step.

Why the title matters

“Clinical psychologist” is a protected title

In India, a clinical psychologist is someone with an M.Phil in Clinical Psychology and registration with the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) — a licensure bar most “counsellors” and “life coaches” haven’t crossed. It matters because complex concerns — OCD, bipolar disorder, trauma, postpartum depression — deserve clinical training, not certificates from weekend courses. My registration: RCI Registered Clinical Psychologist. Full credentials and career timeline.

What we can work on

From everyday weight to complex ground

Anxiety that runs the day. Depression that makes everything heavier. OCD, trauma, postpartum and perinatal struggles, and steady psychological support alongside psychiatric care for bipolar disorder. Find yours among the concern guides, or see the services page for session length, fees and how booking works — all stated plainly.

Common questions

Do you offer in-person sessions in Bengaluru?

Not at present — the practice is fully online. I'm based in Bengaluru, and sessions run over video, so you can meet from any part of the city, or anywhere in India, without crossing it. If your situation genuinely needs in-person or more intensive care, I'll say so and help you find it.

What should I check before choosing a psychologist here?

Three things: RCI registration (ask for the CRR number — any registered clinical psychologist will share it readily), qualifications (M.Phil Clinical Psychology for clinical concerns), and whether their experience matches your concern. Rapport you can only judge by meeting once.

Which languages do sessions run in?

English and Malayalam — in any mix that fits how you think. Full sessions in Malayalam are available online, wherever you are.

Support in this city shouldn't require crossing it.

Sessions are online — book one from wherever in Bengaluru (or India) you are. Getting started takes a link, not a commute.
