If you suspect a condition that may require medication (e.g., clinical depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, schizophrenia), start with a psychiatrist for an evaluation. If your concern is primarily situational — stress, relationship issues, grief, mild anxiety — a psychologist or counsellor is usually the appropriate first step. Many clinics offer combined psychiatric and psychological assessment so this decision is made for you after an initial intake.

When selecting a psychologist in Delhi NCR, check for relevant qualifications (such as an M.Phil or Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology) and RCI (Rehabilitation Council of India) registration for clinical care. Consider their area of specialization—such as relationship counseling, anxiety, ADHD, or child development—and verify whether they offer your preferred consultation format (in-clinic or online). At Psychowellness Center, our multidisciplinary team of senior clinical psychologists, counselors, and psychiatrists across Janakpuri and Dwarka allows us to match you with a specialist suited to your specific concern.
