During this time, we have had around one session each week on an average with this psychologist . psychologist conducted some tests and give a result that does not clearly give anything but accusing many things that we are not. also psychologist revealed personal information of other clients ( of some celebrity) to us. she suggested some wrong medicines(was for some other things and just suggested , didn't prescribe). argued in whatsapp, used the things we said in past in her session as to a professional psychologist against us without provocation. i would like to know the legal possibility of registering a complaint against her Unprofessional and unethical doings.

Sir/ Madam,

Here you have two options. If the treatment is not in proper way, you can file a complaint against the said psychologist. As you informed that psychologist given wrong medicine and please check first that for what purpose that medicine will be giving in any drugs dealer or search the same through Internet.

Please confirm that the medicine given by the said psychologist is related curing of your problems. After that please make note of all elements of his conversation is in supportive of your problem or others.

Apart from that you had informed that he had disclosed of some of celebrity problem. It is against his professional ethics.

Please collect all the evidence to show a clue or facts that he was not treating the clients/patients in a property way.

Then file the case against him Civil as well as Criminal.
