Therapy so good, it is used by your CEO and your mom.

Indians, wherever they live in the world. From Bengaluru to Berlin.

Most of our clients are working professionals (founders, managers, senior leaders) between 28 and 40. Some are in India. Many are abroad. But they share the same cultural wiring: family expectations, pressure to perform, complicated relationships with success and self-worth.

Some come because they're struggling. Anxiety, relationship conflict, burnout, grief, a career crossroads. Others come because they're doing fine on paper but something feels off and they can't name it.

And some aren't struggling at all. They want to understand their patterns. Why they react the way they do, why certain relationships feel harder than others, why rest feels like a threat.

We don't treat therapy as something you need only when things fall apart. For many of our clients, therapy is how they become more intentional about the kind of life they want to build.

We work with adults only. No one under 18.

We're also not equipped for severe psychiatric conditions that need medical supervision, medication management, or inpatient care. This includes active psychosis, severe substance dependence requiring detox, and eating disorders that need medical monitoring.

Mindbun is not a crisis helpline. If you or someone you know is in immediate distress, please reach out to local emergency services or a crisis support organisation.

When someone contacts us with concerns outside our scope, we do our best to point them toward the right resources.

Yes. Our team includes RCI-licensed Clinical Psychologists, internationally accredited Certified Transactional Analysts, and psychotherapists with extensive postgraduate training.

But we don't stop at qualifications. Every therapist on Mindbun has a minimum of 200+ hours of practical, case-based training in a specific modality. Every therapist is in personal therapy themselves. And every therapist remains in active supervision.

We verify all credentials through reference checks with trainers and supervisors.

In India, a Master's degree is enough to start practicing therapy. The problem is, most programs are heavily theoretical. The real skills develop later, through practical training and years of working with actual clients.

Most platforms don't look beyond the degree. We do.

Every therapist here has 200+ hours of practical training in a specific modality. All our therapists are in ongoing supervision and personal therapy. And instead of years of experience, we show actual client hours on every profile.

Our therapist network is built entirely through referrals. Therapists already on the platform refer colleagues they trust. Before onboarding anyone, we conduct reference checks with their supervisors and trainers.

The goal: therapists held to global standards, who deeply understand the cultural context of Indians wherever they live.

Yes. Many of our therapists regularly work with Indians living abroad and understand the challenges of navigating life across cultures.

Some of our therapists are based internationally, including in the UK, Germany, Singapore, and Qatar. Others have studied or worked abroad, or have spent years working with NRI clients as a significant part of their practice. For many therapists on Mindbun, a large portion of their caseload consists of NRI clients, giving them deep exposure to the realities of life overseas.

Effective therapy for NRIs requires understanding both the Indian cultural context and the environments clients now live in, and our therapists are well equipped to work across these worlds.

We also show how many countries a therapist's clients come from on their profile, offering transparency into the global nature of their practice.

Today, Mindbun works with clients across 27 countries and multiple time zones.

Yes. Therapy at Mindbun is completely confidential and private.

Your sessions happen directly between you and your therapist, and Mindbun does not have access to what is discussed. Sessions are not recorded by the platform.

When you begin therapy, you sign a confidentiality agreement that explains how your information is protected.

Like all therapy practices, confidentiality has very limited exceptions. If a therapist believes there is a serious risk of harm to you or someone else, they may need to alert the emergency contact you have provided.

These standards follow the ethical guidelines for mental health professionals in India, including privacy principles under the Mental Healthcare Act, 2017.

We offer therapy and clinical assessments for adults (18+).

Therapy includes individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy. All sessions are online, via video.

We also offer clinical assessments and diagnosis conducted by RCI-licensed clinical psychologists. These cover conditions like ADHD, OCD, autism, CPTSD, depression, anxiety, dissociation etc.

After the assessment, you will receive a written report summarising the results and diagnosis. All assessments are conducted by RCI-licensed clinical psychologists using standardised tools, making the diagnosis clinically valid in India.

Our therapists offer sessions in 15 languages: English, Hindi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Sindhi, Punjabi, Marathi, Assamese, Nepali, Tulu, and Urdu.

Language availability varies by therapist. Your matching psychologist will factor in your language preference when recommending a therapist.

A wide range. Here are some of the most common:

Emotional and mental health: Anxiety, depression, panic attacks, burnout, emotional overwhelm, OCD, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, eating disorders, and somatic symptoms like chronic pain.

Trauma: PTSD, complex trauma (CPTSD), sexual abuse, domestic abuse, and intergenerational trauma.

Relationships: Conflict, communication challenges, couples therapy, infidelity, intimacy, sexuality, and kink-aware therapy.

Identity: LGBTQIA+ experiences, racism, caste-based discrimination, neurodivergence (ADHD, autism), and identity exploration.

Habits: Alcohol and substance use, behavioural addictions, and compulsive patterns.

Life transitions: Grief, bereavement, divorce, relocation, becoming a parent, career changes, NRI and cross-cultural experiences, self-esteem, and existential questions about meaning and purpose.

If you're unsure whether we can help with your specific concern, your matching call with a psychologist is the best place to find out.

Our therapists practice 39 different evidence-based and specialised therapeutic approaches. Some of the most common include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Humanistic therapy, Transactional Analysis, Schema Therapy, EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic Experiencing, Gestalt Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Art Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Approaches, Family Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Hypnotherapy, and others.

This range allows us to support a wide variety of concerns. We offer evidence-based approaches, specialised trauma-focused therapies, as well as body-based and somatic approaches for people who prefer working with both mind and body.

Our network also includes long-standing therapeutic traditions like psychodynamic therapy, as well as newer approaches such as Internal Family Systems (IFS).

Because therapy approaches can be confusing to navigate, you don't need to choose one yourself. During your matching call, our psychologist understands your concerns and helps connect you with a therapist whose approach is likely to be the best fit.

Yes. Before starting therapy, you’ll have two short conversations designed to help you find the right therapist.

First, you’ll have a free matching call with a counselling psychologist from our team. They hold a bachelor’s and master’s degree in psychology and will understand your concerns, preferences, and goals before recommending a therapist who is likely to be a strong fit.

Once a therapist is recommended, you can have a free 30-minute discovery call with that therapist. This is an opportunity to ask questions about their training, approach, and how they typically work with clients.

If it doesn’t feel like the right fit, we’re happy to recommend another therapist and arrange another discovery call. The goal is to help you find someone you feel comfortable working with before beginning therapy.
