Please read this alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

If you are in immediate distress or having thoughts of harming yourself, do not wait for a response from us. Call a 24/7 helpline immediately — Tele-MANAS: 14416 / 1-800-891-4416 or KIRAN: 1800-599-0019 — or go to your nearest hospital emergency room.

Not an emergency or diagnostic service

This platform does not provide emergency services, crisis intervention, or diagnosis. The information on this website is provided for general awareness and education only. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for assessment, diagnosis, or treatment by a qualified professional.

Only a qualified professional can diagnose a mental health condition. Where we name screening instruments used by clinicians, these are administered and interpreted by a professional and are not meant for self-diagnosis.

About our one-on-one sessions

All sessions on this platform are offered pro bono by practicing, qualified mental health professionals who volunteer their time alongside their regular clinical work. Because of this, and because we routinely receive far more requests than we have therapist-hours available, we are not able to guarantee a response, a specific timeline, or a match with a therapist for every applicant.

These sessions are a space to talk and be supported. They are not a substitute for ongoing therapy, psychiatric treatment, or emergency care.

About our group circles

Our anonymous group circles are support spaces, not group therapy or clinical treatment. They are not a substitute for ongoing therapy, psychiatric care, or emergency services. Facilitators volunteer their time and cannot provide crisis intervention.

About the psychologist directory

Our directory of government-empanelled professionals is compiled from publicly available government sources. We do not employ, endorse, verify the current registration status of, or take responsibility for the professionals listed. Details change — please confirm directly before relying on any listing.

Legal information and templates

The information and templates provided on this website are for general awareness and informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. For advice specific to your situation, please consult a licensed advocate.

External links

Where we link to helplines, government services, or other organisations, we do so because we believe the information is useful. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content, availability, or the support they provide.
