Online counselling allows you to chat with an online psychologist or counsellor right away, through your computer or mobile, from the comfort of your home. It can be done anonymously in a safe, secure manner, keeping your privacy intact. Online counselling is known by different names such as cyberspace counselling, e-therapy, e-counselling or tele-counselling. Talking to a counsellor online eliminates the need to wait for appointments or wait for your sessions. Since its web based counselling, it also eliminates the travel time and cost associated with it, making the entire thing more affordable. It also inherently addresses the social stigma associated with mental health by virtue of privacy and anonymity.
Counsellors on Rich Psych are qualified and experienced professionals with Masters or Doctorate Degree in the field of Mental Health and other related disciplines. All counsellors on Rich Psych go through an extensive review process. All possess a minimum 3 years of experience in their field of expertise.
Rich Psych believes in helping as many towards a better mental and emotional health. To achieve this, our counsellors put considerable time and effort with each client. To help the most, we did provide Free Online Counselling sessions as well. However, there is a flipside to this with service users putting little value to the free sessions and often resulting in no-shows or unavailability. This puts a pressure on the valued time of the counsellors leading to the disuse of their valued time. To address this, we have stopped the Free Online Counselling service with an objective to ensure that such a service is not abused and that you are serious about giving online counselling a try. Nonetheless, our plans are very economic and in case you find it financially difficult to subscribe a plan, please contact us and we will be happy to help.
Yes, Emotional and Mental distress can become a health problem if left unaddressed. However, due to the stigma attached to expressing Emotional and Mental distress, people hesitate from expressing the problem and do not voice it till it becomes a major health issue. Indeed, 1 in 10 people are affected by anxiety and depression at any point in time. They have a long-lasting, perceivable and unperceivable effect on the person and it can have a big impact on people’s ability to get on with life.
Yes, Emotional and Mental health problems can affect almost anyone irrespective of their physical health or financial status. One may seem physically very fit but can be suffering from major depression or any other mental illness. Many celebrities have expressed this as well. Well known actress Deepika Padukone in her interview with Vogue magazine stated that depression was a struggle every second and is not the only one who has been vocal about it. There are various other celebrities like Lady Gaga, Sarah Silverman, Cara Delevingne, Jon Hamm and a lot more, who have been vocal about their struggle with depression and other mental illnesses.
Both psychiatrist and psychologist are Mental Health Professionals. A Psychiatrist is a mental health professional with a medical degree. He/she can treat mental disorders and prescribe medicine for treating the symptoms of a mental disorder. Whereas, a Psychologist is a mental health professional with a Masters Degree or PhD. He/She is also competent to treat mental disorders and do so by means of behavioural modifications and therapy. Unlike psychiatrists they do not prescribe medicine.
Hence, both are competent to treat mental disorders. Psychiatrists use medication as their first line of treatment and psychologists use cognitive, behavioural and other therapy tools and techniques for treatment. Sometimes, a combination of both, medication and therapy may be desirable for a better outcome.
