Conditions we treat
Online Consultation for OCD
Intrusive thoughts and the rituals used to neutralise them can take over hours of the day. OCD responds to structured, specific treatment.
What ocd means
Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images or urges (obsessions) and repetitive acts or mental rituals performed to reduce the distress they cause (compulsions).
Common signs and symptoms
- Repeated intrusive thoughts that feel distressing or shameful
- Checking, washing, counting or ordering rituals
- Needing reassurance repeatedly
- Avoiding triggers
- Significant time lost to rituals each day
When professional support may help
- Rituals take up more than an hour a day
- You avoid places or tasks because of intrusive thoughts
- Family members are drawn into providing reassurance
How Veera's Global can help
Cognitive behavioural approaches for OCD, with psychiatric input where indicated.
Fees, session length and what happens next
- Fees
- ₹2,500 / US$25 for a consultation with our current specialists. The fee for each clinician is shown on their profile and again at checkout, converted to your local currency where a rate is available. There is no separate platform charge.
- Session length
- Session length is set by each clinician and shown on their profile and on the slot you pick, so you know the exact duration before you pay.
- Languages
- English, Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Bengali. Languages vary by clinician and are listed on each profile — filter on the specialists page before booking.
- How the session happens
- Sessions are held in a Google Meet room created for that appointment only. Nothing is recorded unless you give explicit consent first.
- Follow-up
- Follow-up is booked the same way as the first appointment, with the same clinician where you prefer. Your notes, any prescription and previous sessions stay on one record, so you do not repeat your history each time.
Our psychiatrists are registered medical practitioners in India and work within India's Telemedicine Practice Guidelines. An e-prescription can be issued after assessment where those guidelines permit it for your presentation; some medicines must be prescribed in person.
Talking therapy with our psychologists is available wherever you can join a secure video call. Psychiatry consultations outside India are provided as assessment, review and second-opinion work; prescriptions for a country other than India generally have to be issued or endorsed by a clinician registered there, and your psychiatrist will tell you what applies in your case before you book a follow-up.
What online care cannot do
- Online care is not an emergency service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency number or a crisis helpline.
- Medically supervised detoxification, acute psychosis and situations needing physical examination or admission require in-person services.
- Prescribing depends on the clinician's registration and the rules of the country you are in; your clinician confirms what is possible at assessment.
Frequently asked questions
Is therapy for OCD different from general counselling?
Yes. OCD is treated with specific cognitive behavioural techniques rather than open-ended supportive counselling. Your clinician will explain the approach they use.
