What Makes This Different

You shouldn’t have to translate your life before talking about it.

When you see a therapist abroad, you often spend half the session explaining — what a joint family is, what your parents expect, why you can’t just “set a boundary” and walk away. With Dr. Priya, that context is already there.

She has worked with clients across the US, UK, UAE, Australia, and Singapore — NRIs navigating the pressure of being “successful abroad”, expats dealing with identity and isolation, and second-generation Indians caught between two worlds.

Sessions are in English or Hindi. 60 minutes. Via Google Meet. Session times are shown in your own time zone.

Who This Is For
🌍

NRIs Settled Abroad

Living in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, or elsewhere — managing family obligations from a distance, navigating identity, or simply carrying more than you let on.

✈️

Expats & Indians Living Abroad Temporarily

On assignment, studying, or relocating — without a trusted support system around you. Feeling isolated in a place that looks fine from the outside.

🔄

Dual Identity & Cultural Pressure

Born abroad or raised between two cultures — feeling Indian at home and foreign elsewhere. Managing parental expectations across time zones and cultural gaps.

💼

High-Achieving Professionals

Successful on paper, struggling underneath. Burnout, anxiety, and the particular loneliness of being the person everyone else leans on.

How does Dr. Priya work across time zones?

She has been helping me manage the ups and downs of my emotions, my anger and anxiety at work in my IT job. I feel the same attention and importance she invests in each patient, here in the USA. She is approachable from IST, EST and BST time zones easily through WhatsApp.

Some people naturally bring a sense of calm wherever they go, and Priya is one of them. Even a short conversation with her leaves you feeling lighter and more understood.

Common questions

From international clients

What time zones do you work with?
Any. Dr. Priya works from India, and the booking page shows every available time converted to your own time zone, whether you are in the US, UK, UAE, Canada, Australia or Singapore. Session hours: Monday–Friday 5–9 pm and Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 10 am–2 pm, India time (IST). Weekday evenings in India fall in the morning in North America and in the afternoon in the UK and the UAE; the India mornings suit the UAE, Singapore and Australia.
How do I pay from outside India?
By international debit or credit card when you book. A 60-minute session is $55, paid in full at booking; packs of 5 sessions ($225) or 10 sessions ($425) are also available. If you cancel more than 4 hours before, you can reschedule or get a full refund.
Can I book from outside India?
Yes. Sessions are online by secure video, and the booking page lets you pick a time that works in your time zone. A 60-minute session is $55, paid in full when you book, so there is nothing to pay at the session. Packs are 5 sessions for $225 or 10 for $425.
I’ve tried therapists here but they don’t understand Indian family dynamics. Can Dr. Priya help?
This is exactly who Dr. Priya works with. Joint family pressure, arranged marriage dynamics, immigrant guilt, parental expectations across time zones — she understands these not as textbook concepts but as lived Indian reality. You won’t need to explain the context.
How do time zones work — when can I book from the US, UK, UAE or Australia?
Dr. Priya’s hours are Monday–Friday 5–9 pm and Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 10 am–2 pm, India time (IST). In North America that is weekday mornings; in the UK, weekday afternoons plus early mornings on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday; in the UAE, mornings and late afternoons; in Singapore and Australia, afternoons and evenings. The booking page converts every open slot to your time zone.
Why is this so much more affordable than therapy in the US or UK?
Dr. Priya charges ₹5,000 ($55) per session — a fraction of what equivalent care costs abroad. A comparable session in the US costs $150–250. The quality of care, the credentials, and the depth of the work are identical. Geography shouldn’t determine who gets good therapy.
How do I pay from outside India?
International card payments (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) are accepted securely via Razorpay. Payment details are confirmed when you book — there is nothing to set up in advance.
I haven’t lived in India for years. Will this still feel relevant to me?
Often more so. The distance from home, the dual identity, the pressure of being seen as “successful abroad” while quietly struggling — these are things Dr. Priya works with regularly. You don’t need to re-Indianise yourself for the session. She meets you where you are.
