Ms. Neeri Batra is a Counselling Psychologist at Psych Therapy in New Delhi. She works with adolescents, young adults, professionals, individuals and couples who are navigating emotional, relational and life-stage concerns. Her style is collaborative, warm and structured, with an emphasis on helping clients understand patterns, build practical coping skills and develop greater emotional clarity.
She offers both in-person sessions in Paschim Vihar, New Delhi and online counselling, allowing clients to choose the format that is most suitable for them.
Her work is particularly relevant for people who may be experiencing anxiety, overthinking, stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, identity concerns, career uncertainty or emotional overwhelm. She also supports clients through grief, life transitions and periods of personal or existential questioning.
Ms. Batra supports clients in understanding triggers, thought patterns and behavioural responses linked with anxiety and stress. Sessions may draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based interventions and practical behavioural strategies to help clients feel more grounded and respond to difficult situations with greater awareness.
Therapy can provide space to explore self-doubt, imposter feelings, identity concerns and recurring patterns that affect confidence or decision-making. The focus is on developing insight, self-understanding and a more balanced relationship with one’s thoughts and emotions.
Students and professionals may seek counselling when they feel stuck, overwhelmed or uncertain about important decisions. Ms. Batra works collaboratively with clients to clarify priorities, understand emotional barriers and make choices that are more aligned with their values and circumstances.
She also works with clients who are processing loss, major transitions, emotional overwhelm or questions related to purpose and direction. These conversations may draw on humanistic and existential approaches, with space for reflection as well as practical coping.
In couples counselling, Ms. Batra helps partners explore recurring interaction patterns, communication difficulties, emotional disconnection, unmet needs and conflict. Rather than focusing only on who is right or wrong, sessions aim to help both partners understand the cycle that keeps a problem going and identify healthier ways of responding to one another.
Her work with couples may include communication skills, boundary setting, rebuilding trust after relational ruptures, managing emotional reactivity and navigating changes involving work, family roles or other life transitions. She also supports young couples facing concerns such as insecurity, overthinking, conflict avoidance and decision-making within the relationship.
Ms. Batra provides an affirming and non-judgmental therapeutic space for LGBTQIA+ clients. Counselling may include identity exploration, self-acceptance, coming out, family or social pressures, relationship concerns, minority stress and the emotional impact of stigma or invalidation.
Her approach centres the client’s own identity and lived experience. The goal is not to change or pathologise identity, but to support emotional wellbeing, self-worth, resilience and more authentic relationships with self and others.
Ms. Batra uses an integrative approach, selecting techniques according to the client’s concerns, goals and pace. Approaches referenced in her work include:
Sessions are intended to combine emotional exploration with practical tools. Depending on the concern, this may involve identifying patterns, developing coping strategies, strengthening communication, exploring values, or practising more helpful ways of responding to difficult thoughts and emotions.
Therapy begins with understanding what is bringing you to counselling and what you would like to change or understand better. Rather than using the same formula for every client, sessions are adapted to the individual or couple’s needs. Over time, the work may involve recognising patterns, exploring emotions and relationships, practising new skills and reviewing what is helping.
A therapeutic relationship also needs to feel like a reasonable fit. Clients are encouraged to discuss their expectations, concerns and goals openly so that the work can remain collaborative.
Alongside counselling, Ms. Batra is involved in psychoeducation, group support work and mental health awareness workshops. This reflects an interest in making psychological knowledge practical and accessible beyond one-to-one sessions.
For wider mental-health context, the World Health Organization reported in 2026 that nearly 1 in 7 people worldwide were living with a mental disorder in 2023. India’s National Mental Health Survey 2015–16 reported 10.6% current and 13.7% lifetime prevalence of mental morbidity. These population figures do not predict an individual client’s outcome.
