Hi! I’m Tejas Shah, an RCI-Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Mumbai. With over 16,000 hours of therapeutic experience, I help individuals, couples, families, groups, and professionals, both in-person and online, facing emotional, relational and psychological difficulties, seeking not only symptom relief, but also greater clarity, emotional depth, and meaningful change.
Clinical depth. Philosophical clarity. Relational insight.
At times, what troubles us is not only anxiety, sadness, conflict, or stress itself, but the pattern beneath it — the repeated reaction, the unresolved relationship, the inner conflict, the life that looks functional from outside yet feels strained from within.
Therapy can offer a serious and confidential space to understand that pattern more clearly, and to begin working with it differently.

Who This Work Is For
This work may be helpful for people who are:
- struggling with anxiety, low mood, grief, shame, confusion, or emotional exhaustion
- caught in repeated patterns in relationships, work, or family life
- dealing with marriage distress, family conflict, or a persistent sense of disconnection
- high-functioning on the outside, but inwardly burdened or stuck
- looking not only for advice, but for deeper psychological understanding and real change
I work with adults, couples, families, groups, and professionals in Mumbai, across India, and online for clients internationally, subject to suitability and practical considerations.
My Approach
My practice is largely informed by psychodynamic psychotherapy, while also drawing from extensive training across different therapeutic traditions. This allows the work to remain clinically grounded, flexible, and responsive to the person in front of me.
In simple terms, I do not look only at the symptom. I also pay attention to:
- the emotional pattern beneath the symptom
- the relationships in which the difficulty is shaped and repeated
- the ways a person has learned to cope, protect, adapt, or withdraw
- the meaning the difficulty has come to carry in one’s life
Some people come wanting relief.
Some come wanting understanding.
Often, both are necessary.
Why People Seek Therapy Here
People usually do not come for serious therapy because they want motivation.
They come because something important is not settling.
They may have insight, yet still remain stuck.
They may be functioning, yet not at ease.
They may be successful, yet inwardly burdened.
They may care for one another deeply, yet keep hurting each other in the same ways.
Therapy can help when the problem is no longer just the visible issue, but the pattern that keeps returning.
In-Person and Online Sessions
Sessions are available in Mumbai as well as online.
Online work can be especially useful for individuals, couples, and families across India and for Indians living abroad who want a serious therapeutic space with cultural familiarity and psychological depth.

How to Begin
The first step is a consultation. This is a space to understand what brings you, what you are struggling with, and what kind of therapeutic work may be appropriate.
From there, we can consider whether individual, couples, family, or group therapy would be the right format.
