Postpartum Depression Counselling in Kochi
Kochi, Kerala's commercial hub, has a strong tradition of maternal care and growing demand for online postpartum counselling.
RCI-licensed female counsellors support new mothers across Kochi with postpartum depression, anxiety, birth trauma, and intrusive thoughts — over private 45-minute online video sessions, in your preferred language. 100% confidential.
What is postpartum depression?
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a common, treatable mood condition that can affect mothers in the weeks and months after delivery. It is more than "baby blues" — the feelings are deeper, last longer than two weeks, and do not lift on their own. It is not a weakness and it is not your fault. With the right support, most mothers recover well.
Signs and symptoms to watch for
- Persistent sadness or low mood most of the day
- Loss of interest or pleasure, even in your baby
- Overwhelming tiredness beyond normal new-parent fatigue
- Intrusive or frightening thoughts
- Feeling worthless, guilty, or like a bad mother
- Trouble bonding with your baby
- Changes in sleep or appetite
If you are in crisis
If you have thoughts of harming yourself or your baby, please seek help right now. Call 112 (India's emergency number) or go to your nearest hospital. You can also call iCall's free counselling helpline at 9152987821 (Monday–Saturday, 10am–8pm).

Frequently asked questions — Kochi
What is the cost of postpartum depression counselling in Kochi?
A 45-minute online video session with an RCI-licensed female counsellor is ₹1,499. No subscription and no hidden fees.
Do I need to visit a clinic in Kochi?
No. All sessions are online video calls, so you can speak to a counsellor from your home anywhere in Kochi — including Kakkanad, Edappally, Panampilly Nagar, Fort Kochi — without travelling with a newborn.
Are your counsellors qualified?
Yes. Every counsellor is RCI-licensed (Rehabilitation Council of India) and specialises in maternal mental health, including postpartum depression, anxiety, birth trauma, and intrusive thoughts.
