LOST & FOUND
What makes the practice of Psychotherapy meaningful is the commitment, trust, and shared intention between those who enter the process. Our work supports emotional understanding, inner clarity, and lasting change — shaped by what you are living, feeling, and seeking.

What We Do?
We offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy, clinical training, and consultation for organisations.
What connects these strands is a shared commitment to taking inner life seriously.
We work from the premise that the unexamined places in a person, a team, or a culture are not incidental, they organise behaviour, shape relationships, and determine how we think. Our work is to create the conditions for reflection, insight, and healing.
Psychotherapy
UNDERSTANDING BENEATH THE SURFACE
Psychoanalytic Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy is a depth-oriented method of working with where it hurts. It's based on a simple premise- we don't always know why we feel what we feel, or do what we do. Patterns repeat, relationships tangle in familiar ways, and the past shows up in the present. Psychoanalytic work heals those knots, so you can live with more freedom of choice & thought.

Training
REFLECTING WITHIN PRACTICE
Training at L&F is a thoughtful space for therapists to explore the depths of their work, questions, and analytic listening. Through dialogue between clinical experience and theory, psychoanalysis becomes comprehensible.

She has worked across diverse clinical and institutional spaces including UNHCR, Lady Hardinge Hospital, and various community organisations, engaging with a wide spectrum of emotional experiences. Aanchal is affiliated with the American Psychological Association (Div 39) and has been honoured with the APA Div39 Scholar Award (2019) and a Fellowship at the Washington Baltimore Center for Psychoanalysis (2023).
Through her practice in Delhi and online, she works closely with themes of trauma, grief, anxiety, attachment, and the unconscious — creating a space where healing is not imposed, but discovered.

Frequently Asked Questions
Therapy can feel unfamiliar, and it’s natural to have questions. Here you’ll find simple, clear answers about sessions, privacy, effectiveness, and what working with a therapist really looks like.
If stress, anxiety, overthinking, sadness, relationship issues, trauma, or lack of clarity is affecting your daily life, sleep, work, or relationships — you likely need therapy. You don’t need to be “mentally ill” to start.
No. Most people come for anxiety, life confusion, emotional pain, burnout, self-doubt, relationship problems, or personal growth.
You talk. The therapist listens, asks questions, and helps you see patterns, emotions, and solutions. No hypnosis, no magic — it’s structured conversation + psychological techniques.
