Dr Radhika Goyal

Health Psychologist

An experienced health psychologist, teacher and researcher. Worked with Indian and international population.

About Me

Navigating health challenges can feel overwhelming. As an experienced health psychologist, I help individuals understand the intricate link between their mind and body. Drawing on my background as a teacher and researcher, I make health information clear and accessible. I guide clients to develop practical strategies for managing chronic conditions, stress, or lifestyle changes. My extensive work with diverse Indian and international populations ensures a culturally sensitive and supportive space for your well-being.

Approach

My background in teaching and research shapes how I structure sessions—focused, inquiry-led and paced to your learning style. Based in Delhi, I offer in-person and online appointments in English and Hindi/Urdu, aiming for a culturally attuned and comfortable space. Sessions use brief assessments, measurable goals, skill practice and gentle biofeedback when useful, with clear, doable steps to try between meetings. Those facing chronic health worries, stress or cross-cultural transitions tend to find this practical, collaborative pace most helpful.
