Mental health continues to take a backseat in India. Taboos over visiting a psychiatrist continue to rule high. To overcome this self-imagined block, graduates in psychology are offering counselling services to everyone from students to elderly. Fees are charged per session, which usually spans 30 minutes to an hour. The service can be offered from home, a small office or from a medical clinic/ hospital. Please note that psychological counselling is different from psychiatric counselling. The former can be done by persons who have passed Bachelor of Science with psychology as major. Psychiatry, on the other hand, is a very specialized medical branch that requires a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree.
