Personalised online counselling
How can I help you?
My core focus is anxiety and self-esteem — the two threads that, in my experience, sit underneath a great many of the difficulties people bring to counselling. Whether it shows up as pressure at work, a relationship under strain, or the unsettled feeling that comes with a major life transition, anxiety is very often the thread running through it. Addressing it directly tends to be the most useful place to start, whatever the surface problem looks like.
This is the lens I bring across three areas:
- Anxiety: Working through anxiety, low self-esteem, mood difficulties, and the stress of complex life transitions.
- Self-Esteem & Identity: Rebuilding a stronger, more stable sense of self-worth, and a steadier relationship with yourself.
- Work-related stress: Pressure, burnout, difficult working relationships, and the strain of carrying work home.
Why online therapy?
A private space, entirely your own.
Sessions happen wherever you choose, with none of the chance encounters that can come with an in-person waiting room.
Flexibility that fits your life.
Online sessions mean no commute and no waiting room — just log in from a space where you feel comfortable.
Sessions that fit around work.
Appointments from 9am to 8pm (IST), seven days a week, so counselling need not come out of your working day.

Ritaja Pakrashi, MSc
I believe good counselling starts with honesty — including about what I can and can’t help with. If what you need is beyond what I’m equipped to offer, I shall guide you to find the right kind of support that you need, rather than continuing sessions that aren’t actually serving you.
I hold an MSc in Applied Psychology from Pondicherry University (2017–2019), graduating at the top of my class, and achieved the highest grade in the foundational Indian Association of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (IACBT) course (2021). I’ve spent over 1,000 hours working directly with clients on the stress, anxiety, and personal difficulties that show up in everyday life.
Sessions are 60 minutes, held over Google Meet. ₹2,500 for clients in India and $50 for international clients. Payment is made before the session, through Razorpay.
Counselling works best as a shared effort, and mastery is something we build together, one session at a time. I hope to help you towards the mastery you’ve been looking for in your own life.
