09/02/2021, 3:10 PMI have friends who worked in this space for a while. Few learning from them especially if its your first time seeking pscyho-therapy.
ā¢ You will NOT get results in 1-session. It takes few sessions to nail compatibility with therapist and set the foundation for deeper results
ā¢ You MIGHT not match with a very recommended therapist. It is OK to try others especially in the beginning
Few folks you could consult online. Link1, Link2, Link3

09/03/2021, 6:01 AMHey Sudharshan, I have spoken to a therapist from the InnerHour platform many times and found that it worked for me. As @loud-artist-61521 said above, you might have to experiment a bit before you find compatibility with a therapist.
I am also trying to get InnerHour to offer an exclusive discount for the RI community. So you might want to wait till then š

09/03/2021, 8:27 AM@broad-camera-13514 If you mean psychological therapist, then as someone with personal experience (I suffer from a few mental issues) I will say do not look for recommendations. Instead setup meetings good ones you see on online platforms (or find them in your city).
It takes a couple sessions with a few to understand who clicks. This is a very personal/safe space that you share with a therapist, so make the process personal. I went through 8-9 sessions a few years back.

09/03/2021, 8:30 AMI know it sounds odd, but before I picked my therapist I used to think I would feel more comfortable with a female therapist since I have more female friends in general. But techniques differ quit a bit and how someone approaches your expressions matter. So my recommendation might not work at all for you.

09/03/2021, 11:17 AM@loud-artist-61521 Thanks! Did not know cult had a mental health package. How is the experience? Are you matched with the same therapist for each session?

09/03/2021, 11:19 AM@calm-grass-85557 Is inner hour just a chatbot app or can I talk to someone?

09/03/2021, 11:20 AM@wide-carpet-65149 I understand, I had a shitty first therapist who I fired after 2 sessions. Just collecting leads now. I've used those apps which are marketplaces for therapists and they were pretty average

09/03/2021, 12:16 PMOnce you select a therapist they become your preferred. You can change later too. Experience has been good. Hope you find a good match.

I see a good list of qualified people from TN/Chennai and it's being actively maintained.
