Yes. You can pay with bKash, Nagad, a debit or credit card, or a bank transfer. You pay only after we confirm your session time on WhatsApp.

Does health insurance cover therapy in Bangladesh?

Most health insurance plans in Bangladesh cover hospital care, not outpatient therapy, so most clients pay themselves. Some employer or OPD plans reimburse consultations, so check your policy. Chum Wellness can give you a payment receipt for a claim.

Yes. University students pay from ৳699 per online session with selected psychologists: Nandita Sarkar, Teresa Diana Gomes, Jannatul Mawa Chowdhury, Raju Ahmed and Chowdhury Mehtaj Jabeen Medha. Choose “I’m a student” when you book and the team will confirm your session.
