Treatment & Support
What This Practice Actually Offers American Clients
Within those limits there is a real and useful scope of work, and it is the part that most US-based practitioners do not cover:
What it does not offer is diagnosis, medication, treatment of severe mental illness, or anything requiring a licensed US clinician. Where someone needs that, the honest answer is to say so, and that answer gets given.
- «Clinical hypnotherapy — for smoking cessation, weight and eating patterns, phobias, exam and performance anxiety, and sleep.
- «Distance Reiki, and Reiki attunement and training for students who want to learn it.
- «Holistic and spiritual counselling, including chakra work, EFT tapping, inner child work and past life regression.
- «Life coaching, and anger and stress management.
- «Pre-marital and relationship conversations, particularly where cultural expectations are part of the picture.
Why American Clients Come to a Delhi Practitioner
Almost always for one of three reasons. The first is cultural fluency — not having to explain, from the beginning, why a parent's opinion about your marriage carries the weight it does, or what it means to be the child your family moved countries for.
The second is the specific combination of modalities. Reiki mastery of twenty-five years alongside clinical hypnotherapy and counselling psychology training is uncommon anywhere, and clients looking for that mix often cannot find it locally.
The third is simply access. Waiting lists in many US metros are long, and for the non-clinical work described above, there is no reason the practitioner has to be in the same country.
Credentials
Taanya Nagi holds a BA (Hons) in Behavioural Sciences and an MA in Counselling Psychology. She is a certified Clinical Hypnotherapist (C.H.I.I), a Usui Reiki Master and teacher of more than twenty-five years, and holds a Diploma in Holistic Living Counselling accredited in Australia, where she lived for thirteen years. She is a certified member of the Australian Holistic Healers Association, and holds certifications in NLP, IEMT, EFT, Bach Flower Remedies from the Bach Centre in the UK, inner child healing and colour therapy.
None of those is a US state licence, and none of them is presented as one.
How Sessions Work
On timing: India is nine and a half to twelve and a half hours ahead of the continental United States, depending on your time zone and the season. In practice that works better than it sounds. Morning appointments in India fall in the evening on the US East Coast, and late-evening Indian slots fall in the American morning. Sessions are usually set at a fixed weekly time so you are not recalculating it each week, and daylight saving shifts are handled at this end.
Sessions run fifty to sixty minutes over video. The first covers what brings you and what you want to be different. Hypnotherapy works well over video provided you are somewhere private and undisturbed — you remain aware and in control throughout, and the session ends with you fully alert.
Who This Is Not Right For
It is worth being direct. If you are in acute crisis, if you have active suicidal thoughts, if you are managing a severe eating disorder, psychosis, or substance withdrawal, or if you want a diagnosis or medication, you need licensed care in your own state — and ideally in person. If you intend to claim on health insurance, you need an in-network licensed provider. Nothing here substitutes for any of that.

Questions & Answers
Everything you need to know before booking your first session.
Are you a licensed therapist in the United States?+
No. Licensing in the US is granted state by state, and Taanya holds no US state licence. She works with American clients as a clinical hypnotherapist, Reiki Master and holistic counsellor. If you need a licensed clinician, you need a provider licensed in your own state.
Can I claim this on my US health insurance?+
No. Insurance reimbursement in the US requires a licensed, usually in-network provider. Sessions here are paid privately and will not be reimbursable, and it is better to know that before booking than after.
What time zone do you work in?+
Indian Standard Time, which is nine and a half to twelve and a half hours ahead of the continental US depending on your zone and the season. Indian mornings suit US evenings and Indian late evenings suit US mornings. A fixed weekly slot is usually set so it stays predictable.
Is distance Reiki actually effective over that distance?+
Distance Reiki is a long-established part of the Usui tradition and geography is not held to be a limiting factor within it. It is a complementary practice used for relaxation and wellbeing, not a medical treatment, and it should not replace medical care.
Do you work with people who are not of Indian origin?+
Yes. A large share of American clients come for the cultural fluency, and many come purely for the hypnotherapy or Reiki work, which does not depend on background at all.
