Online Counselling in Bangladesh

Online counselling is as effective as in-person, minus the commute.

Online counselling is a private session with a qualified psychologist over video or audio call, instead of visiting a chamber in person. You talk about what you are going through; your psychologist helps you understand it and work through it using proven, evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

The National Institute of Mental Health describes psychotherapy as an evidence-based treatment for depression, anxiety and other conditions. Decades of research show online therapy works as well as in-person for the concerns most people bring, and in Bangladesh it removes the three real barriers: distance, time lost to traffic, and the worry of being seen entering a clinic.

The first session is simply a conversation.

Your psychologist will ask what brought you in and what you would like to feel different, and give you space to talk at your own pace. There is nothing you “have to” say, and nothing is judged. By the end, you will usually have a clearer sense of what is going on and a simple plan for the next steps. Most people feel noticeably lighter after just talking it out loud with someone trained to listen.
