We are here to help
Parivarthan
~ Transformation
Dedicated to promoting meaningful change in the individual.
ABOUT
Parivarthan (Sanskrit for Transformation) was started in 1995 at a time when counselling was still a lesser-known form of professional help for mental health difficulties. The centre was established to offer counselling services in the community through well trained professional counsellors. Since its inception, Parivarthan has been conducting a rigorous and comprehensive yearlong counsellor training besides providing counselling services to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. Over the years, the faculty at Parivarthan have conducted research studies to develop counselling practices that are appropriately tuned to Indian cultural context and changing societal realities.
What makes the Parivarthan experience different is the respect that we have for the confidentiality of our clients. We believe that ongoing professional and personal development of counsellors through regular supervision and personal counselling is an essential part of the practice of counselling. The quality of our services is further upheld by affiliating and adhering to the ethical guidelines laid down by BACP.
Parivarthan is one of the few mental health organisations in the country that has secured an organisational membership (Membership No. 129337) with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Parivarthan stands by the strong ethical code recommended by the BACP, namely the Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy, the Ethical Guidelines for Researching Counselling and Psychotherapy and the Professional Conduct Procedure.

Articles
Encountering Culture: Psychotherapy and Counseling Practice in India
Western or scientific psychology was introduced in India in 1905 at Calcutta University (Prasadrao & Sudhir, 2001). In 1915 a full-fledged department of psychology was instituted and Girindrashekhar Bose, a practicing Indian physician, became the first recipient of a doctorate in psychology in 1921.
Battle of the Sexes
An increasing number of young and not-so-young couples go for marital counselling these days. While this is a disturbing trend for most, who commonly interpret it to mean that couples are having more problems, I tend to discount their scepticism and believe this is healthy. It means more people are willing to work on their relationships. It also means that less than satisfactory relationships are not acceptable any more.
