“It’s an experiment in what your life might be like if you speak freely to another person.”
-Adam Phillips on therapy
My name is Rashi and I am a psychotherapist.
A counselling or therapeutic relationship is more than an experiment, it is an absurd experience. The first step itself heightens the anxiety, the idea of sharing our stories with a stranger - or what we call a mental health professional. Some comfort starts to build after the first session. I try my best to cultivate an authentic connection for both us - using humor, metaphors and keeping my presence real.
Then, we get down to the hard work of removing obstacles that don’t let you move forward. And that is challenging, it requires more action than conversations. The outcomes can be subtle or profound, but what is lasting is that it isn’t absurd anymore. It is rewarding, life-affirming to make someone a witness to some part of your life. And I cannot wait to share that with you.

Please note that I am not taking new clients at the moment.
My practice is mostly online and I feel video/voice sessions work really well.
The first session is priced at ₹1599. I offer optional reduced fee sessions for those who identify as Dalit, Bahujan or Adivasi. I do not assume that all who identify as DBA require or want financial support to access therapy. For those who do, I see this as an additional structural step that we can take to address the long standing caste-based inequities and patterns of oppression that continue to exist around us.
We can connect briefly over a phone call to understand your context better and discuss more about the process of psychotherapy. This conversation will allow us to explore our fit together for a therapeutic relationship. I’ll get in touch with you once you have selected a convenient slot for our first call.
