We’d love to hear from you. Whether you’re reaching out for therapy, consulting, or simply have a question, we’re here to help.

Prefer Not to Call? – We understand that life is busy and not everyone feels comfortable speaking on the phone. Some people prefer to leave a message, and for neurodivergent clients, writing may feel easier than calling. That’s why we welcome enquiries in whatever way works best for you.

As a boutique practice, Rishi may be with a client when you call. If your call isn’t answered, please don’t worry – simply leave a voicemail or use the enquiry form below, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Why Choose Us?

Choosing the right support matters. We go beyond surface-level coaching to provide evidence-based strategies that work in real life. Our approach is grounded in clinical training, practical experience, and a deep understanding of leaders’ daily pressures. Every step is focused on helping you build confidence, resilience, and clarity — not with templates, but with tools that truly fit you.

  • Clinically trained in comprehensive therapy modalities and real science, not corporate fluff.
  • Flexible, discreet, and tailored — no cookie-cutter frameworks.
  • Designed for humans under pressure — executives, founders, people leaders.

Build insight. Expand your tools. Deal with insecurities. Lead from a deeper place.

“Leadership is personal. Let’s treat it that way.”

Success Stories Shared by Our Customers

Highly recommend Indus-therapy!

Rishi is exceptional, he creates a safe and welcoming space where you can openly discuss your concerns. He is compassionate, empathetic, and truly skilled. I was able to have both zoom and in person sessions which was very convenient. Truly transformative!

Radika

I found Rishi to be very understanding and helpful, and never made me feel judged. I definitely recommend him, especially for clients experiencing severe anxiety or trauma. I felt at ease with him from our first session, which can be very rare when seeking help for difficult situations. I would rate him higher if I could.
