Online Therapy Across India
Srijita Gupta offers online therapy to clients across India through secure, one-on-one video sessions — the same clinical care available at her Bengaluru and Kolkata practices, without the need to travel.
Srijita Gupta is an RCI-certified licensed Clinical Psychologist (RCI Reg. No. A56917) with over ten years of clinical experience in government psychiatric hospitals, including NIMHANS Bengaluru and the Institute of Psychiatry, SSKM Kolkata. Alongside her in-person practices in Bengaluru and Kolkata, she runs a remote-first online therapy practice that serves clients across India, from metros to smaller towns where specialised mental health support can be harder to find nearby.
Who online therapy suits
Online sessions work well for people who want consistent, private access to therapy without factoring in commute time, who are based outside Bengaluru and Kolkata, who travel frequently or relocate often, or who simply feel more comfortable speaking from a familiar space. It can be a good option whether you are exploring therapy for the first time or continuing ongoing work while away from your usual city. Online formats are commonly used for talk-therapy approaches such as anxiety-focused therapy and depression therapy, among other concerns. If you are unsure whether an online format fits your situation, that question itself is worth raising in an initial consultation.
How online sessions work
Sessions are held over a secure video call at a scheduled time, in the same structured format as an in-person appointment. All that is required on your end is a private space where you can speak without interruption, a device with a camera and microphone, and a reasonably stable internet connection. Details about scheduling, the video platform used, and session length are confirmed once you get in touch to book a consultation.
Privacy and confidentiality
Confidentiality is treated with the same seriousness online as it is in person. Video sessions are conducted over secure links, and the clinical standards of privacy that apply to in-person consultations — around what is discussed and how records are handled — apply equally to online work. It is worth choosing a private location for your own sessions, such as a room with a closed door, so you can speak openly.
What online therapy can help with
Online sessions can be used to work through a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, low mood, stress and adjustment difficulties, relationship or family conflict, sleep difficulties, and other areas covered in her full range of services. Approaches used may include CBT, DBT, REBT, IPT, and mindfulness-based methods, adapted to whichever format — online or in person — suits you best. If you are based in or near Bengaluru or Kolkata and would prefer an in-person consultation instead, both cities are covered directly.
