In India, no single licence covers every mental-health role, and regulation is split by profession under separate laws. A clinical psychologist is enrolled on the Central Rehabilitation Register kept by the Rehabilitation Council of India, and only a person enrolled there may practise as a rehabilitation professional. Psychologists and counsellors register with the National Commission for Allied and Healthcare Professions, which keeps a separate national register.
Membership of a professional association is not statutory registration. For a psychiatrist you can check the Indian Medical Register held by the National Medical Commission.
Real choice. Authentic, independent, clinician-led care.
TherapyRoute is a clinician-led directory that champions independent practitioners who answer to you and their professional ethics, not to investors or corporate interests. We don't take commissions, sell your data, or assign therapists by algorithm. You browse, compare, and choose.
