Life in Nepal
Exams and the race for a stable job. Family hopes riding on your career, and decisions about marriage that involve everyone. Partners, siblings or children working abroad, and the quiet weight of holding a home together from a distance. Mantraminds offers a calm, confidential space to talk it through.
How we support people in Nepal
Nepal and India share language, culture and family ties, so our counsellors understand much of what shapes everyday life here. Many people want to talk to someone outside their own social circle, confidentially and without being recognised. Our India-based counsellors offer exactly that: a private space, away from anyone you know.
What people in Nepal often talk to us about:
- Exams, results and decisions about your career;
- A partner, child or sibling working abroad, and holding the home together;
- Expectations around marriage and family;
- The rising cost of living and money worries;
- Caring for elderly parents.
Times that can feel heavier: These pressures can build around Dashain and Tihar, when families come together, and in exam and results seasons.
Our local support page lists free services in your area.

What our service is — and isn't
Mantraminds offers well-being counselling for adults (18+): support with life's everyday challenges. To keep you safe, we're clear about what we don't offer in Nepal:
- No diagnosis or treatment of mental health conditions
- No psychiatric consultations or medication
- No sessions for under-18s (we support parents instead)
- No crisis or emergency care
If our team feels you'd benefit from clinical care, we'll tell you honestly and help you find local services.
Need urgent help?
If you're in crisis or feel unsafe, please don't wait for a session:
- Emergency: call 100 (police) or 102 (ambulance)
- National Suicide Prevention Helpline (Mental Hospital, Lagankhel): Call 1166 (toll-free) (24/7)
Important information
About our counsellors. Mantraminds is based in India, and we hope to support people wherever they live. Our Well-being Counsellors are qualified and experienced in India, and some hold Indian registrations. Overseas qualifications and registrations do not give anyone registration to practise in Nepal. Our counsellors are not registered with the Nepal Health Professional Council (Nepal's regulator for health professionals, including clinical psychologists). When they work with clients in Nepal, they act only as Well-being Counsellors, not as psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists or medical practitioners.
What this service doesn't provide. Our service is not a Nepali psychology, psychiatry or medical service. It doesn't provide:
- medical, psychiatric or psychological diagnosis, or diagnostic assessment;
- treatment of any mental health condition;
- prescribing, or advice on starting, stopping or changing medication;
- medical certificates, reports, letters or certificates for legal, insurance, employment, immigration or court purposes;
- emergency or crisis care.
When to seek care in Nepal. If you have a diagnosed or suspected mental health condition, symptoms that are significant or getting worse, need medication or medical advice, or are already receiving mental health treatment, please seek or continue care with a doctor, the psychiatry outpatient service at a hospital near you, or the Mental Hospital in Lagankhel, Lalitpur. If your counsellor thinks you need clinical care, they will tell you and suggest local services.
Claims and reimbursement. Sessions can't be claimed through Nepal's national health insurance programme (Health Insurance Board), private health insurance, or employer medical schemes, and may not qualify for workplace or employer reimbursement. Please check with your employer before booking.
Your choice. Local services are available to you. By booking, you confirm you've chosen an India-based, non-clinical service instead, knowing the points above. Because our counsellors aren't registered locally, local regulators can't take complaints about them. Please bring any concern to us at contact@mantraminds.com.
In an emergency, call 100 (police) or 102 (ambulance) or go to the emergency department of your nearest hospital. You can also contact National Suicide Prevention Helpline (Mental Hospital, Lagankhel) (call 1166 (toll-free)).
This doesn't affect your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2075 (2018).
