When parents look for help for their child’s behavior, emotions, learning, or developmental needs, the first question is usually:

 

“Where can I find a trusted Malayalam-speaking psychologist who truly understands my child?”
                                                                                              or
“Is there a reliable online counseling option that feels safe, comforting, and culturally familiar?”

For thousands of families across Kerala and abroad, the answer has been Pranaah Psychological Services & Child Development Centre, Kollam.

                             Founded in 2013, Pranaah is the first established counselling centre in Kollam City, now known for its compassionate care, evidence-based methods, and a multidisciplinary approach that supports both children and parents. Today, under the leadership of Dr. Devi Raj (Psychologist & Licensed Early Interventionist), Pranaah continues to grow as one of Kerala’s most trusted spaces for emotional and developmental wellness.
