How We Work :
Counseling by Personal Interview
This is the most suited form of counseling and is highly recommended by PsyCounsel. Whenever practicable this is the form of counseling the client should opt for, to ensure maximum benefit from the counseling sessions. Personal interview method of counseling is also comparatively much cheaper and permits a better understanding of the underlying and associated factors of a case by the therapist. Personal interview is conducted only by prior appointment. Knowledge of English on the client's part is desirable for effective counseling sessions.
E-MAIL Counseling
Advice on all problems can not be provided through E mail counseling. E mail counseling is normally resorted to when the client has problems in meeting the psychologist in person, due to lack of proximity or any other reason. E mail counseling also ensures privacy.
CHAT Counseling
Put simply, live chat is a keyboard conversation that takes place in "real time" between client and counselor. When a client types out a sentence and presses "enter," the message appears instantaneously on the counselors screen, and vice-versa.
General Conditions
The actual tariff for various Counseling services and telephone numbers/ IDs required to carry on counseling will be intimated by PsyCounsel once the problem is identified as one that can be dealt with by a particular method of counseling and such a relationship is agreed to. The rates will also depend on the complexity of the problem and the time required for dealing with them. Initial Contact with PsyCounsel is always free.
