About Dr Riri G Trivedi

Most people who find their way to Riri are carrying something they can’t quite name — a pattern that keeps repeating, a reaction that seems too big for the moment, a sense that something happened a long time ago and never quite finished. Her work is helping people find that thing, and finish it.

She has spent the last decade doing this — with clients in Ahmedabad and online, and training therapists across India, Singapore, New Zealand and Malaysia. Her PhD examined how adverse childhood experiences shape anxiety, depression and well-being in Indian adults. But the credentials below matter less than whether this sounds like your experience. If it does, that’s the conversation worth having.
