The stretch from Lalmatia through Farmgate to Tejgaon is one of the busiest learning-and-working corridors in Dhaka. Colleges and coaching centres pack the Farmgate side, the Tejgaon offices and industrial area fill up by nine, and in between are hostels, messes and shared flats full of students and young professionals a long way from home. If you have been looking for a psychologist in Tejgaon or Lalmatia, the kind of pressure this area carries is one we see every week.

Chum Wellness holds in-person sessions nearby at Room 36, Green Super Market, Green Road, Farmgate, Dhaka 1215, a short walk from Lalmatia, Farmgate and the Tejgaon college belt. See it on the map. We also see clients at our Tejgaon chamber on Kazi Nazrul Islam Avenue, and the rest of our team meets online across Bangladesh, so you can come in person or meet by video, whichever fits your class or shift schedule.

What students and young professionals bring to us

The concerns in this corridor cluster around two stages of life that both run hot: exams and the first years of a career.

exam pressure, admission-test panic and burnout from back-to-back coaching, worry that will not switch off, anxiety therapy
a flat, low mood and loss of motivation far from family, depression counselling
breakups, loneliness and hostel-life friction, individual counselling
first-job stress, imposter feelings and career confusion in the Tejgaon offices

Feeling stretched during exam season is normal. Not sleeping for weeks, losing interest in everything, or dreading each morning is not, and it responds well to talking to someone trained.

In person at Farmgate, or online around your timetable

Our Green Road chamber sits right by the Farmgate hub, so it is reachable between classes or after work without a long trip. If your week is unpredictable, the same licensed psychologists are available online, and you can move between in-person and video sessions as your timetable shifts. The standard of confidentiality is identical either way.

Student rates and staying private

Cost is a real barrier when you are studying, so student rates are lower, and fees are always confirmed before you book. Sessions are confidential and are never shared with your college, your family or anyone in your mess or hostel. What you talk about is yours alone.

What your first session looks like

A first appointment is an assessment, not a test. Your psychologist asks what has brought you in, how you have been sleeping and coping, and what you would like to change, then you agree a direction together and keep the work structured so progress is visible. Sessions run about 50–60 minutes.

How booking works

It takes about three minutes: tell us briefly what is going on, choose in-person at Farmgate or Tejgaon or online, and we match you with a suitable psychologist. Most first appointments are confirmed within 2–6 hours. Start at book a session, or browse the team first.

Session fees

Indicative session fees run ৳1,200–৳5,000 and are always confirmed before you book; student rates are lower. See pricing for the full range.

Frequently asked questions

When exam or career stress becomes something more

A hard semester or a rough first job is one thing; a low mood or anxiety that holds for more than two weeks and starts eating your sleep, appetite and focus is another. That is the point where self-help and a night out stop being enough, and a psychologist can give you real tools rather than telling you to push through. Reaching out early, before results or a job slip further, is a sign of good judgement, not weakness, and it is far easier to turn things around then than after a full breakdown.

How do I know which psychologist is right for me?

You do not have to work it out alone. Tell us briefly what is going on when you book, and we match you to a suitable psychologist; if the fit is not right, you can switch.
