Coaching Disclaimer

What coaching on MYS can and cannot do for you.

Draft — this document has not yet been reviewed and may change before launch.

Last updated 14 September 2026

Coaching is a conversation about moving forward

A Saarthi helps you think clearly about a decision, a change or a goal, and supports you as you act on it.

It is not

Therapy, counselling or treatment for a mental health condition.
Medical, legal, tax or financial advice.
A crisis or emergency service.

Saarthis are coaches

Saarthis are vetted by MYS, but they are not necessarily licensed mental health or medical professionals. If a Saarthi thinks you need that kind of help, they may suggest you seek it.

If you are struggling

If you are thinking about harming yourself, or you are in danger, do not wait for a session. Call 112 for emergency services, or Tele-MANAS on 14416 for free mental health support at any hour. Both are listed under Get help now in the app.
