Concept note: Prolonged pandemic impairs in-person psychotherapy. Therefore, tele mental health counselling is one of the innovative tool to free the patient from mental or social stigma. Rabindranath Tagore himself composed several poems, dance drama to stop mental and social stigma in society. His philosophical contributions and postulates of Rabindrik Psychotherapy are useful in outreach community development program.
