Depression therapy and counselling in India
People searching for depression therapy in India are often looking for two things at once: a clear explanation of what they are feeling, and a private way to start talking. Depression counselling is not a lecture and not a test. It is a structured conversation to understand mood, sleep, energy, and the thoughts that keep you stuck — then to work on small, usable changes.
Signs it may be time to seek help for low mood
Low mood after a hard week can pass. Consider booking if several of these have lasted more than two weeks: little interest in things that usually matter, tiredness that rest does not fix, feeling numb or unusually self-critical, withdrawing from people, or trouble concentrating.
Seeking help is not a failure of willpower. Mood, trauma, relationships, and physical health interact. A first appointment is a conversation. You can share as much or as little as feels safe.
What depression counselling involves
Dr. Neha Malik works with evidence-based therapies for depression, including CBT and related approaches. Sessions look at patterns in thinking, daily routine, relationships, and what has helped or not helped before. There is no guaranteed recovery rate and no one-size plan.
Psychologists provide therapy, not prescriptions. If your symptoms are severe, include thoughts of self-harm, or may need a medical review, you will be encouraged to use emergency services or to involve a psychiatrist. Therapy and medication are sometimes used together; that decision is clinical, not a website claim.

Questions people ask
Should I see a psychologist or a psychiatrist for depression?
If you want talk therapy for low mood, a psychologist is a usual first step. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can prescribe. Severe symptoms, psychosis, or high suicide risk need urgent medical care, not only an online form. Many people eventually work with both.
How much does depression counselling cost at Manovistaar?
A session is ₹700 for 45 minutes. Private therapy in India often ranges from about ₹500 to ₹3,500 depending on city and experience.
