This is not therapy

I am Gayathri BK, a qualified counselling psychologist. However, the content on this website — including blog articles, reflections, and any free resources — does not constitute therapy, counselling, or mental health treatment.

Reading this website does not create a therapist-client relationship between us. The information shared here is based on my personal perspective, years of clinical practice, academic training and ongoing professional learning. It is intended for general educational and reflective purposes only.

If you are experiencing significant mental health difficulties, please seek support from a qualified mental health professional. If you are in crisis or in immediate danger, please contact a local emergency service or crisis helpline (India: iCall — 9152987821).

My perspective, not universal truth

Everything I write on this website — every blog post, every reflection, every opinion — comes from my own perspective. It is shaped by my clinical training, my personal healing journey, and the privilege of sitting with hundreds of clients over the years.

Psychology is a living field. Perspectives evolve, research updates, and what is true for one person may not be true for another. I write with care and rigour, but I do not claim to have all the answers. Please read what I share with your own discernment and apply only what resonates with your own life and context.

I will never tell you what is right for you. That is something only you can know.

A note on holistic modalities

I am also a trained reiki practitioner and crystal healer. I integrate these modalities into my work because my lived experience — and the experience of many of my clients — has shown me their value in supporting wellbeing.

These are not medical treatments and are not a substitute for conventional medical or psychological care. They are offered as complementary tools to support the healing process. Please consult a medical professional for any physical or psychiatric conditions.

Confidentiality in sessions

All therapy and consultation sessions with me are strictly confidential. What you share in sessions remains private. There are very limited legal exceptions to this — specifically, if I have reason to believe there is a risk of serious harm to you or to another person. I will always explain these limits clearly at the start of our work together.

Sessions are conducted online via Google Meet. While I take all reasonable precautions to protect the privacy of our sessions, the security of internet-based communication cannot be guaranteed absolutely. You are responsible for ensuring you are in a private, secure environment during sessions.

Payments and cancellations

Payment for sessions is collected via Razorpay, a secure payment platform. Full payment is required before the commencement of a paid session.

Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance. Late cancellations or missed sessions may be charged in full. I always appreciate a message — life happens, and I will do my best to be flexible where possible.

Refunds are considered on a case-by-case basis and are at my discretion.
