Feeling off but
don’t know why?

See everything we treat

The ‘something’s-not-right’ club?
You’re in good, gentle hands

Endless overthinking

You’ve read the posts, journalled, talked it out — yet the same loops keep circling back at 2 a.m., louder each time.

The body remembers

You understand why you feel this way — but your chest still tightens, sleep still breaks, and the body reacts like it’s all happening now.

Craving change

You don’t want to just cope anymore — you want to actually feel the shift: calmer mornings, lighter shoulders, steadier days.

How we care

Three doors into the same warm room — most families use all three at different moments.

Consultation

Psychiatric consultation with a gentle, unhurried first conversation — understanding what’s happening before deciding anything together.

Evaluation

Clinical & psychological testing that reads personality, capability and inter-personal dynamics — insight first, labels last.

Counselling

Integrated, knowledge-based therapy for individuals, couples, families and groups — at your pace, in your language.

How it works

01

Reach out

A call or WhatsApp message to Sunita at the front desk. No forms, no gatekeeping — just a time that works for you.

02

A gentle first conversation

Fifty unhurried minutes with Dr. Ruksheda or one of our therapists. You talk, we listen. You won’t be rushed into anything.

03

A plan that fits your family

Therapy, evaluation, medication, family sessions — or some mix. Built around your life, explained without jargon.

04

Growing steadier

Ongoing care at your pace. We check in regularly, notice what’s shifting, and adjust the plan as you grow.

Quality

A psychiatrist-led team — every credential is on our team page.

Privacy

What’s said in the room stays in the room. Confidentiality is the foundation everything else stands on.

Family-first

Parents, partners, teens — care that understands you come as a system, not a symptom.

Community

Charitable clinics, school & NGO workshops, and MARG — our public mental-health initiative since 2017.

Questions people
quietly google first

No. You can simply call or message us for an appointment. Many people come in just to understand what they’re feeling — that’s a perfectly good reason.

Only if it genuinely helps, and only after we’ve talked it through together. Much of our work is therapy and counselling. When medication is useful, it’s explained clearly — what it does, for how long, and how we’ll review it.

Yes — with one exception: if someone’s safety is at risk, we act on it. For teens, we explain to both parent and child exactly what stays private — trust works better when the rules are clear.

Young people from around age 10 through their mid-twenties are core to our practice — school stress, exam pressure, identity, friendships, family friction. We also work with parents, because families heal best together.

Mostly, you talk and we listen. We’ll understand what brought you in, what you’d like to change, and suggest a way forward. No labels on day one, no pressure to commit to anything.

English and Hindi comfortably — and we keep the jargon out of all of them. Bring your own words; they’re the ones that matter.

Your mind called.
It’s ready for some care
