Life in the mountains can be beautiful - but also overwhelming at times. If you or your family are struggling with stress, anxiety, emotional challenges, or relationship strain, you don’t have to handle it alone.

Our Online Counselling Programme brings accessible, confidential, and culturally sensitive mental health support to Dharamshala, Kangra, and communities across North India.

We offer:
- Individual therapy
- Child & adolescent support
- Family counselling
- Support for neurodivergence
- Evidence-based care (CBT, ACT, trauma-informed)

Whether you live in Dharamshala town, the villages, or are part of the local and expat community - we’re here for you. Sessions are private, confidential, flexible, and available in English and/or Hindi.

Message us to book your first online session or to learn how counselling can support your wellbeing. Your mental health matters, wherever you are.

We just wrapped up our first Women’s Wellbeing Workshop in the mountains — and what an energising, heartfelt session it was.

Together, we explored resilience strategies for the men in our lives; husbands, brothers, sons — no clinical jargon, just real tools for real life. What stood out most was the strength, honesty and laughter the women brought to the session.

We’re excited to bring this programme (and more!) to other groups and communities — women’s collectives, schools, youth groups, workplaces, and local organisations who want practical, culturally-rooted mental wellbeing support.

If your group would like a customised workshop on:
• Emotional wellbeing
• Managing stress and anxious thoughts
• Caregiver support
• Building resilience
• Mental health awareness
—we’d love to collaborate.

Drop us a message to explore a session for your community.

Under the umbrella of our sister company, CAPE, our Director, Dr Denise Lai Chua, will be speaking on "Managing Anxious Thoughts: A Workshop for Caregivers" this Saturday.

Why? Because supporting others starts with understanding—and calming—your own mind. Caring for someone with anxiety can stir up your own worries, stress, and self-doubt. This workshop is created especially for caregivers who want to feel more grounded, confident, and equipped.

Join us as we explore:
✨ Why anxious thoughts arise (in both you and the person you care for)
✨ CBT & ACT strategies to manage your own anxiety
✨ Tools to gently support loved ones without absorbing their distress
✨ Boundary-setting and self-compassion techniques to prevent burnout
✨ Practical scripts, worksheets, and everyday skills you can use right away

This will be a warm, supportive space where you’ll learn to care for someone else without losing yourself.

🗓️ Date: Saturday, 29th Nov 2025
🕒 Time: 12noon (Indian Standard Time)
📍 Location / Online: Zoom
💛 Registration: Email info@capeducate.com

If you’re supporting a child, partner, parent, or friend, this workshop is for you. Let’s help you feel calmer, steadier, and more empowered—one thought at a time.

Does your child experience school-based anxiety? Maybe it's exam stress, or stress related to friends. Maybe it's unrealistic expectations from too much social media scrolling. Whatever the reason, encourage your child (or school) to register for our upcoming workshop on "Managing Exam Stress and School Anxiety." Different sessions have been planned on different days/times for lower primary and upper primary students. We're looking forward to sharing how stress can be managed so that our children live happy, fulfilling and well-adjusted lives! Call +91 98050 68579 for more information and to register.

We're launching our Foundation Diploma in Mental Health Therapy too!

This course, developed in collaboration with the Centre for Applied Practice in Education in Hong Kong and Singapore, will be a good introduction for individuals who want to start a career in Mental Health Therapy but don't quite know where and how to begin.

Crafted specifically for South Asia, the course will develop a foundational understanding of mental health, human behaviour and professional ethics. It will balance theoretical knowledge, hands-on experience and ethical understanding, so as to prepare trainees for diverse client needs.

Please email enquiries@drswaskerandlai.com for more information or call our WhatsApp line to speak with someone.

It's difficult to describe Desert Odyssey passages other than that they are healing journeys of the soul, taken simultaneously yet individually by strangers (who become friends) to make sense of well, the sometimes dry, sometimes muddy, sometimes cold and painful realities of the wilderness we call Life.

Passage One "The Way In" explores our interior lives. This is followed by Passage Two "The Way Out - Building Our Relational Life" and Passage Three "The Way Forward - Discovering a Life of Possibilities." It's not easy to be open and vulnerable, because seriously, who wants to be hurt again? But in an empathetic journey taken with fellow Lifers who know the meaning of pain, acceptance and true psychological restoration can take place.

Together with long-time friend and Founder of Desert Odyssey Timothy Khoo, we invite you to join us for a Desert Odyssey Passage One in Ipoh, Malaysia from the 18th to 25th of January 2025. This passage will be particularly suitable for parents or families of individuals with special needs.

Please reach out if you need more information. Spaces are limited as each group is kept very small by intention. See you there :)
