How to Choose the Best Psychologist in Delhi

Qualifications to Look For

It is important to know and ensure that your psychologist holds an advanced degree whether a Master’s or a Doctorate in Psychology from a recognised university. Psychologists also deal with childhood or adolescent issues such as Autism, ADHD, Anxiety and Depression. A child psychologist in Delhi can help your child with their emotional problems and build coping strategies. They also work closely with parents, teachers, and caregivers to create a supportive environment that promotes a child’s well-being and fosters growth.

To be doubly sure about their license, check for their registration with the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) or similar professional regulatory bodies. Additionally, certifications in specific therapies such as Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), enhance their credibility.

Platforms Offering Online Sessions

After that, we can move to online sessions where you can have one-on-one sessions with our psychologists and have frequent check-ins with the entire mental health team.

In-Person Visits

Clinic Locations: Choose your psychologist in a location that is convenient and near to you. This will ensure the regularity of your sessions. 

Appointment Booking Procedures: Most clinics allow scheduling through multiple channels which include phone calls, emails, or online booking forms.

Transformation Stories at BetterPlace

I don’t feel so alone anymore

Having a son should be one of the biggest joys for a mother. But I was not feeling so good and i was very guilty and sad all the time. It just didn’t make sense and everyone was blaming me like im a bad mother. After speaking to Dr Akul i realised I may have post-partum depression and it was such a relief to know that other women also experience this. With Doctor’s help I am now able to feel some of the happiness of a new mother. Just sooo grateful to Dr Akul. Thank you doctor.

Finding my way back

I was told anxiety and depression often go hand in hand so I should not feel overwhelmed and that I am not alone in my fight. But the problem was my anxiety constantly made me feel trapped while the depression made it very hard to be positive. But after coming to BP, my doctor helped me get to the bottom of my feelings and slowly but surely find a way out. His practical techniques have been quite easy to implement and I am now more hopeful than I have ever been.

My OCD is finally under control

BetterPlace has helped me manage my OCD such that I can lead a normal life again. Before I would check the lock 23 times before leaving the house and adjust the car mirror 18 times before driving each time. Thanks to my sessions with Dr X I have finally broken free of that horrible chain. I feel so free I just cannot express it in words!!
