Can anxiety therapy be done online from outside Kathmandu?

Yes — secure video sessions for clients anywhere in Nepal and internationally, with the same psychologist-led CBT approach.

Is panic attack an emergency?

First episode or chest pain should be medically checked. Recurrent panic without physical cause responds well to CBT. Crisis line in Nepal: TUTH 1166.

Anxiety is more than stress before an exam or interview. When worry runs your days — sleep, appetite, relationships, and work suffer — structured psychotherapy helps. You are not weak; your nervous system is signaling overload.

Bhatta Psychotherapy offers evidence-based anxiety treatment in Kathmandu (Anurag Marg) and secure online sessions across Nepal and abroad — in English, Nepali, and Hindi.

Common forms we see

Generalized worry — always bracing for something bad
Panic attacks — racing heart, dizziness, fear of dying
Social anxiety — fear of judgment, avoiding gatherings or speaking
Health anxiety — repeated checking, doctor visits, Google spirals
Performance anxiety — exams, presentations, interviews, public speaking
Family-triggered anxiety — conflict, expectations, in-law stress

How therapy helps

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) maps thoughts, body signals, and avoidance. You learn grounding, exposure in small steps, and boundaries with triggers at work or home. DBT-informed skills help when emotions spike quickly or feel unbearable.

Medication and referrals

We are psychologists — we do not prescribe. If symptoms are severe, we can discuss psychiatrist referral alongside therapy. Many clients improve with psychotherapy alone; others do best with combined care.

Book in Kathmandu or online
