Common questions
Can I consult a psychiatrist in Bangalore online?
Yes. Mindly Health is 100% online, so you can consult psychiatrists and psychologists, with care led by a NIMHANS-trained team, from anywhere in Bangalore, or anywhere in India, without travelling.
Is an online psychiatrist in Bangalore as effective as an in-person visit?
Research shows that online consultations work well for many common concerns, such as anxiety and depression, and save travel time while offering more privacy. If your situation needs in-person care, your clinician will tell you.
Can I get online therapy in Bangalore?
Yes. Our clinical psychologists provide therapy, such as CBT, by video to people in Bangalore, in your language. You can see a therapist on its own or alongside a psychiatrist. Your pre-consultation call helps decide which suits you.
Do you offer sessions in Kannada?
Yes. Sessions are available in 11 Indian languages, including Kannada, English and Hindi.
Should I see a psychiatrist or a psychologist?
If you might need a diagnosis or medication, or your symptoms are severe, start with a psychiatrist; for talk therapy and coping skills, a psychologist or counsellor is a good fit. If you're unsure, book a consultation and we'll guide you.
Are my sessions confidential?
Yes. What you share stays between you and your care team and is protected under our Privacy Policy, except in rare situations where the law requires disclosure or someone's safety is at serious risk.
