Is psychotherapy right for you?
A short introduction to psychotherapy — what to expect before you book.
Confidential, professional care
Sessions follow professional ethical standards in Nepal. What you share is confidential, with limited exceptions required by law or safety. We serve clients in Kathmandu in person at Anurag Marg, Kathmandu 00182, Nepal, and online across Nepal and internationally.
What actually happens in the first session
Not knowing is the most common reason people delay. Here is the honest version.
- 1
Confidentiality first
Your therapist explains what stays private and the narrow limits to that. Nothing goes to your family, employer or college.
- 2
You talk, at your pace
A guided conversation about what brought you in and what you want to change. It is not an interrogation, and you decide what you are ready to say.
- 3
You decide what is next
Together you agree on pace and format — or agree that ongoing therapy is not what you need right now. One session does not commit you to a course.
You will not be forced to relive anything. Nothing painful gets opened before you are ready — pacing is the therapist’s responsibility, not yours.
You do not need a diagnosis. Most people arrive describing how they feel, not what it is called.
Fees are confirmed beforehand. We do not publish rates online; you will know the cost before your first full session.
You can change your mind. If it is not the right fit, say so — we would rather refer you well than keep you.
