    Veena Nair mam can help you to deal with any kind of mental health issues. She is the reason that I have overcome depression. It wasn't just a treatment process but it was more than that because I have learnt so much from her that motivated me from the inside. We met virtually as it was an online counselling process but her influence on me has always been so great that I can still feel it. I deeply admire her for her work and also recommend her to everyone who’s facing mental health issues.
    Hope for the best!
