Straight-spouse support

Information to help you take the next step.

You do not have to decide everything today

Shock, grief, confusion, anger, concern for children and uncertainty about the future can coexist. There is no single correct response and you do not need to make every relationship decision immediately.

A short enquiry is enough to ask about available online support. Please do not send detailed personal or clinical histories through the general contact form.

Respect, boundaries and informed choices

Sexual orientation cannot be reliably inferred from stereotypes or checklists, and no one should be pressured to disclose, change or label their identity. Support should make room for each person's dignity, safety, consent and autonomy.

Some couples choose to continue their relationship and others make different decisions. There is no universal answer; individual circumstances and freely made choices matter.

Online support and its limits

Counselling through Kirtida is online only. Contact the organisation to confirm the service currently available, suitability, session duration and fee before booking.

This website is not an emergency service. If there is immediate danger in India, call 112 or go to the nearest emergency department.
