What we work on · Therapy stigma
Therapy when your family thinks therapy is shameful
'Log kya kahenge' has kept more people out of therapy than cost ever has. In many Indian families, needing help is heard as weakness, or worse, as something that reflects on the whole family.
You do not have to win that argument before getting support. Online sessions are private, held outside your community, and nothing is shared with anyone.

- ·Having searched for therapists for months without booking
- ·Being afraid of being labelled or medicated
- ·Not knowing what actually happens in a session

Common questions
Will anyone find out I am in therapy?
No. Sessions are private online video, records are confidential, and Komel practises outside your local community.
Do I need a diagnosis to start?
No. Most people come with 'something feels off', which is enough.
Can I try one session first?
Yes. There is a short introductory session so you can see how it feels before committing to anything.
Ready when you are
Pick a session and a time in your own timezone, then send the request. Nothing is paid until Komel confirms.

From the practice
What Komel writes about, week to week.
When this is not the right fit
Komel is a psychotherapist and executive coach based in the UAE, working online worldwide. Sessions are private and self-funded, and cannot be claimed on local insurance or used for legal, medical or workplace reports. She does not prescribe or manage medication.
This is not an emergency service. If you are in immediate danger, use a local crisis line rather than a booking request. Her credentials and training and the full scope of practice are published.
