Siraya
Scores 4.8/5, the strongest balance of therapist experience and clear policies in this list.
6 platforms in India offer trauma informed care, we scored every one of them on price, therapist experience and OTI score. Siraya comes out on top, and the average session costs ₹1,565.
Less a technique than a stance: assume trauma may be present, prioritise safety and choice, and avoid recreating dynamics of powerlessness in the therapy itself. In practice it means you're not pushed to recount events before you're ready, you control the pace, and stabilisation comes before processing. Specific modalities like EMDR, CPT and trauma-focused CBT sit inside this frame.
Same ranking, cut three ways, because the right answer changes depending on whether you're optimising for budget, experience or how fast you can start.

The questions that separate a good fit from an expensive false start. Ask them before the first paid session, not after.
Every therapist should be trauma-informed. Treating trauma is separate, ask specifically about EMDR, trauma-focused CBT, CPT or Somatic Experiencing.
Good trauma work builds coping capacity before touching the memories. A therapist who goes straight to the event in session one is a risk.
Processing trauma over video means the therapist can't be in the room if you're overwhelmed. Ask what their protocol is and agree it in advance.
Across the 4 platforms here that publish a rate. Anything near the low end is worth a second look at therapist qualifications; anything near the high end should come with senior therapists or a specialism.
