I really felt good whenever we had sessions because it helps me to heal myself. Thank you Dr. Versha Choudhary to helping me to understand this.
Very effective session. Explained in detail about various ways to control own behaviour and how to avoid overthinking
I was under immense stress about my job and future. Varsha Ma’am listened with patience and never made me feel judged. Her exercises helped me stay grounded, and over time, I started managing my anxiety much better. I’m truly grateful for her support.
I constantly doubted myself and struggled to make decisions. Dr. Varsha Choudhari helped me identify the root causes and gave me clarity. Her approach is gentle but deeply insightful. I felt lighter after every session.
I used to beat myself up over the smallest mistakes. Nothing ever felt "good enough," no matter how much I did. Dr. Varsha Choudhari helped me understand where that harsh inner critic came from. Her sessions were supportive but also made me question long-held beliefs. Over time, I’ve become more forgiving toward myself and have seen my anxiety reduce significantly. She’s professional yet deeply empathetic.
I came to Varsha mam when I felt completely drained, emotionally and physically. I was constantly putting others first and forgetting myself in the process. She helped me recognise the importance of emotional boundaries and self-care. Her approach is kind, respectful, and deeply insightful.
It was helpful
It was helpful
It was good.
Dealing with anxiety was overwhelming until I began therapy with Dr. Varsha Choudhari. She offered helpful techniques for managing anxious thoughts, and her calm demeanor made me feel at ease. I now feel more equipped to handle anxiety in my day-to-day life.

Dr. Basarkar is a very patient and wise counsellor. His sessions focus not only on problems but also on personal growth. I appreciate his clear explanations and encouraging approach.
Dr. Basarkar’s counselling approach is very supportive and professional. He understands problems without judgment and explains solutions in a simple, relatable way. After a few sessions, I felt more confident and emotionally stable. Truly grateful for his guidance.
Dr Shishir has allowed that I can share all my stress. He is very friendly and gave me confidence that I have a potentiality to deal with all my matters.
Shishir sir listened my problems very calmly and gave me appropriate solution. He also motivated me. He is very polite and humble.
I appreciate Dr. Shishir Basarkar’s patient listening and thoughtful advice. His counselling sessions are structured yet very comfortable. He gently guides you to find solutions within yourself. It has been a very positive and transformative experience.
Dr. Basarkar is a compassionate and knowledgeable counsellor. His sessions helped me understand my thoughts and reactions better. He provides clear strategies to manage stress and relationships. I always leave the session feeling lighter and more hopeful.
I was stuck in a loop of overthinking about my career decisions—constantly doubting every move I made. Dr. Shishir helped me break that pattern and focus on what truly mattered to me. His style is logical, empathetic, and not forceful. I came out of each session feeling a bit lighter and clearer.
When I started therapy with Dr. Shishir, I was feeling completely directionless and low. His approach helped me rediscover a sense of purpose and gave me practical tools to deal with everyday struggles. His calm and grounded nature made it easy to open up.
I was constantly doubting myself, especially when making decisions. Therapy with Dr. Shishir helped me shift from fear-based thinking to a more grounded and confident mindset. His style is practical yet deeply empathetic.
I was struggling with low mood and complete lack of interest in life. Dr. Shishir Basarkar helped me understand that depression isn’t about weakness, it’s something we can work through. His calm, structured approach gave me hope and direction when I needed it most.

Highly recommend Veena Nair
I never really expressed myself growing up. Veena ma’am helped me open up, especially around family issues. Therapy gave me tools I didn’t know I needed.
I was experiencing high levels of stress due to work and personal commitments. I felt like I was constantly running on empty. Veena Nair's sessions provided a safe space for me to reflect, recharge, and prioritize my mental health. She helped me gain clarity on my needs and introduced practical strategies to deal with stress. I’m now more balanced and able to handle life’s challenges.
Calm. Caring. Consistent

I’ve struggled with low self-esteem for a long time, but Veena Ma’am sessions have been incredibly empowering. She taught me how to challenge negative thoughts and build my self-worth. I’m now more confident in myself and my abilities. I really appreciate her approach and understanding.
Veena Nair was a huge support during my struggle with postpartum depression. She created a safe space for me to express my feelings and helped me find ways to cope with the changes in my life.
