Psychological consultation is a professional consultation with a Clinical Psychologist to address clients concerns. There is no single reason that a client may consult a psychologist. A client may consult a psychologist for their own issues, family issues, parenting related issues, etc. The client may also consult a psychologist if unsure about the services/support he/she may need, may also seek advise to understand a loved one’s mental health, seeking support as a caregiver to someone with mental health issues/development issues/disabilities.

If you think you or someone you know may need psychological support, feel free to discuss with one of our team member.

General Questions

A psychological consultation is a professional discussion with a licensed psychologist to explore mental health concerns, emotional well-being, behavioral issues, or personal development. It can help identify challenges and provide recommendations for further support or treatment.

Anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, career challenges, or personal struggles can benefit. It is also useful for parents, educators, and professionals seeking psychological insights or guidance.
