Is online therapy legal in India?

Yes. Registered clinical psychologists and counselors can legally offer therapy over video in India. Innerly only lists psychologists with verified professional credentials.

How private and confidential are my sessions?

Sessions happen in an encrypted video room. Your therapist is bound by professional confidentiality, and your conversation is never shared with anyone — including Innerly staff — except where required by law (e.g. imminent risk of harm).

Can I switch my therapist if it's not a good fit?

Yes, anytime. Fit matters more than loyalty to a single therapist — browse the directory and book a session with anyone else whenever you'd like.

What's the refund policy if I need to cancel?

You can cancel and get a refund up to a set window before your session starts. See our full refund policy for exact timelines and edge cases.

Can I reschedule instead of cancelling?

Yes — most sessions can be rescheduled to a different available slot without losing your payment. See our reschedule policy for details.

What if I'm in a crisis right now?

Innerly is built for scheduled, non-emergency counseling — not crisis intervention. If you're having thoughts of self-harm or are in immediate danger, please use the crisis helplines above or call 112.

How much does a session cost?

Pricing varies by therapist experience and specialization. You'll always see the exact price before booking — no subscriptions, no hidden fees.

Do I need to download any app for video sessions?

No. Sessions run directly in your browser in a secure video room — nothing to install.

What payment methods can I use?

UPI, credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, RuPay), and net banking — all through Razorpay's secure checkout. Your payment details never touch Innerly's servers.

How do psychologists get paid on Innerly?

Clients pay securely when they book. A platform fee is deducted, earnings are tracked transparently in the psychologist's dashboard, and payouts are processed safely to their bank account. See our payout policy for details.
