Around the business day and a full house

Sessions run from 6pm to midnight Monday to Saturday, and from 11am on Sunday. Many people take their session from a parked car, a shop after closing, or once the house is quiet.
Practical details
- Individual sessions run 60 minutes, couple sessions 90.
- Audio only is a normal choice, and uses far less data.
- A WhatsApp text plan is an option when no private hour exists at all.
- Sessions run Monday to Saturday from 6pm to 12am and Sunday from 11am to 12am, Pakistan time. Messages are answered every day from 7am to 12am.

What the research says
- Most people living with a mental health condition do not receive effective care. Only about one in three people with depression gets formal mental health care. [1]
- A 2018 systematic review comparing guided internet-based and face-to-face cognitive behavioural therapy found the two formats gave broadly equivalent results, while noting more research is still needed for some conditions. [2]
