About me

Raag Malhotra, Psychologist & Maternal Mental Health Advocate  Raag Malhotra, Therapist & Maternal Mental Health Advocate  I’m Raag, and I understand how lonely it can feel to struggle with your mental health as a South Asian mom.  After my first baby, I went through postpartum depression and anxiety, but no one in my family understood what I was facing. I knew something had to change.  Unable to find a therapist who truly understood our culture, family dynamics, or the pressure on South Asian women, I became the therapist I needed.

Today, I support South Asian moms experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, and pregnancy loss, helping them heal in ways that fit their lives and values. I also work with families to replace shame with empathy so mothers receive real support.  Through @momsinnerjourney, I speak openly — in English and Hindi — about the truths we’re often told to hide: postpartum rage, pregnancy anxiety, grief after loss, and the fear of not being “good enough.”

Therapy Bookings: Terms & Conditions

Sessions coordinated directly with the therapist

Once you book a session with a therapist via SoulUp, we put you in touch with them via WhatsApp allowing you and your therapist to coordinate on a mutually convenient time.

Cancellation policy

You can reschedule or cancel sessions or switch therapists upto 24 hours of the slotted time, post which no rescheduling or refund of sessions is possible.

Late to session policy

If you are over 15 mins late to the session, then the session will be held cancelled and no refund will be available. This has been done to ensure a 'full' session for you as well as to ensure enough gap-time for the therapist before their next session.

Cancelling part of a bundled session

For sessions bought as bundle of 4 at discounted price - if after n sessions, either the therapist or the client wants to discontinue sessions, we initiate refund of remaining sessions. In this case, the actual non-discounted price is deducted for each completed session (instead of the pro-rata amount per session) from the price of the bundled offering and the refund is issued.
