Mental Wellness is not Fight Club. We can talk about it.

Therapy is a process that helps you in different areas of your life like relationships, stress, career, personal growth, and so on. You and your therapist/ psychologist will address different areas of your distress.

Talking to family and friends is certainly helpful, but counselling/therapy is designed to help you understand behavioral patterns, make sense of emotional experiences and create goals for your progress in an holistic, scientific and systematic manner.

It can help you manage ongoing distress like stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship issues or proactively better prepare you for upcoming distress like unwanted change, separation, leadership roles etc. Your therapist/psychologist will be working with you towards common goals.

At Praan, we believe that client should have complete freedom to choose the right therapist for them. You can choose a therapist from our pool of counsellors. If your desired counsellor is unavailable, we will suggest another counsellor who is equally competent to work with you.

The duration of the therapy depends on the issue, the intensity of the problem and your own involvement. However, we suggest an average of five sessions as it helps the client and the counsellor to dig a bit deeper into the issue and come up with conclusive progress.

Just be open and ready to discuss your problems with your counsellor. If something is not working for you, communicate the same with your counsellor. The first session is about building comfort and rapport with your counsellor. So help your counsellor build that with you.

Therapy is never about questioning your ability to manage your stress/problems. It is about empowering you to manage that same problem better, by giving you a holistic view of the problem along with a non-judgemental perspective.

Absolutely! Confidentiality in counselling is a basic aspect. Except for your therapist/ counsellor, no one will be privy to your confidential information which you share with PRAAN and the information shared will be discussed only to improve our services upon your consent.

Since all of us are different and there are different styles of counselling, it might happen that you don’t find the right fit with your existing counsellor. In that case, you can simply choose to continue with another counsellor from our pool of available counsellors.

Therapy can help you with emotional, behavioral, and cognitive issues. Some common issues are stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, marital, inability to concentrate, hyperactivity, career, productivity, mood swings, anger, adjustment, trauma, abuse, grief, and loss.

Yes, you can reschedule the session anytime before 12 hours of the session slot. After that, you will not be able to reschedule the session. For more info on rescheduling or cancellation check above.

You can hold on to the unused sessions and use them on a further date as your follow up sessions.

Clinical psychology deals with severe mental health disorders, while counseling psychology focuses on less severe issues and everyday challenges. Clinical psychologists use various therapies for severe emotional distress, while counseling psychologists focus on person-centered, strengths-based approaches to address specific issues and foster personal growth.
