FAQ
Yes. The AI Psychologist chat, all 21 clinically validated screenings, Cognitive Regulation tools, personalised 3-step plans, the conditions library and confidential referral PDF are free, with no sign-up required. Consultations, Personal AI passes, advanced reports, guided programs and courses are optional paid services.
We use the same clinically validated instruments your doctor would — PHQ-9, GAD-7, PSS-10, ISI, ASRS-v1.1, PC-PTSD-5, WHO-5, AUDIT-C, OCI-R, K10, EPDS, DAST-10, PSWQ-8, Mini-SPIN, UCLA-3, SCOFF, PCL-5, MDQ, EAT-26, MBI-short and ACE. Scores map to standard severity bands. They indicate likelihood; a formal diagnosis still requires a qualified clinician.
After every screening, and on request inside chat, the AI generates a three-action plan calibrated to your severity band — typically one Cognitive Regulation exercise for today, one deeper resource, and the right next move: continue in chat, take a related screening, or book Dr. Sodhi.

The AI Psychologist is multi-modal. It can use Cognitive Regulation, CBT, REBT, DBT, ACT, IFS, motivational interviewing, solution-focused work, schema approaches or trauma-informed pacing according to the situation.
Structured online therapy can be effective for many common concerns, including depression, anxiety, panic, insomnia and PTSD. In-person care remains important for severe, complex or high-risk situations, and individual needs differ.
Counselling is often shorter and focused on a current challenge such as grief, relationships, career or exam stress. Therapy may explore deeper patterns, beliefs or trauma through structured approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, schema therapy or IFS.
Open the Therapy Approaches hub for plain-language guides to CBT, REBT, DBT, ACT, schema therapy, IFS, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy and trauma-informed care, with links to structured courses where available.
