Specialist Child Psychology Support for Families Living Abroad
For families living abroad, finding the right child psychologist can involve more than simply finding an available appointment. Families may want a clinician who understands Indian family and cultural contexts while also being familiar with the educational environments their children experience abroad. Dr. Gurbani Kohli is an India-based Child & Adolescent Psychologist with 11+ years of clinical experience. She is PhD-qualified, RCI Registered, and has completed her CISNE qualification in Singapore. She regularly works with internationally based families, including families connected with embassy communities, and is familiar with children studying across international school systems such as Cambridge and IB. Her remote assessment service allows Indian and NRI families living abroad to access specialist developmental and psychological assessment from India. Where a remote assessment is clinically appropriate, families can begin the process without being entirely dependent on appointment availability in their country of residence, while continuing to work with professionals and schools in their country when needed.
