How sessions work
What to expect
Tell me your name and pronouns at the start, and I'll use them. Sessions are online, private and confidential, so you can join from wherever you feel safest. We work at your pace. I don't believe identities need fixing, and I never use or support conversion practices. Individual, couples and family sessions are all available.
Pricing
LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy sessions
All sessions are online by video. Prices in Indian rupees; international clients see US dollar prices in the booking app.
FAQ
Questions about lgbtqia+ affirmative therapy
Do I need to be sure about my identity to start?
Not at all. Many people come while questioning or exploring. There's no deadline and no right answer you're expected to reach.
Will my family find out what I share?
No. Sessions are confidential. The only exception is a serious risk to someone's safety, which I explain at the start.
Can my parents attend sessions to understand me better?
Yes, if you want that. Family sessions can help relatives move from fear and confusion towards acceptance, with your wellbeing at the centre.
Can I come for things unrelated to my identity?
Of course. You're welcome to bring exam stress, work burnout, grief or anything else.
