Our Services

1. Holistic Psychiatry

Holistic psychiatry is an emerging approach to mental healthcare that emphasizes conditions such as anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and addictions as manifestations of underlying chemical or electrical imbalances—not just in the brain, but also in other biological, psychological, and social factors. Holistic psychiatry treatment includes emotional wellness, self-regulation practices, and trauma therapy to help people live healthier lives.

Anyone going through trauma or emotional turmoil and seeking to bring balance to their personal and professional life can benefit from this service.

Benefits of Holistic Psychiatry

At Holistic Mind Clinic, we strive to understand your symptoms, history, and goals, ensuring an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plan. Our approach enhances emotional wellness and helps individuals cope with trauma in a healthier way. This service helps you explore coping strategies, improve self-regulation, and lead a happier, healthier, and more balanced life.

2. De-addiction Services

De-addiction treatment is a comprehensive approach to addressing substance or alcohol abuse and dependency, combining psychological and medical interventions to help individuals overcome addiction and regain control of their lives. The first step in de-addiction treatment is typically detoxification, which involves gradually weaning the individual off the addictive substance while managing withdrawal symptoms.

This service is ideal for people suffering from long-term alcohol or substance abuse who want to switch to a healthier lifestyle. We not only help them overcome their addiction but also develop strategies to manage their triggers and withdrawals.

The de-addiction process can be challenging, but at Holistic Mind Clinic, we provide a safe and supportive environment where patients can overcome their addiction and thrive as individuals. Through various therapies and treatments, we reduce the chances of relapse and offer support to help individuals get back on track if they do relapse.

Recommended number of sessions - 6 to 8 sessions

3. Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic intervention that allows patients to access parts of the subconscious, helping them become aware of maladaptive patterns developed in response to past traumas, particularly those from childhood or developmental stages. This awareness is the first step toward freedom from these automatic patterns and working towards practicing and developing healthier, more adaptive responses.

Who Needs This Service?

Hypnotherapy is beneficial for people dealing with psychological conditions, stress, anxiety, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and phobias.

Benefits of Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy can make the pain from trauma, such as burns, cancer, and childbirth, more bearable. It helps individuals cope with childhood trauma and gain control of their lives, enabling them to live life to the fullest.

Recommended number of sessions - 6 to 8 sessions

4. Group Yoga Therapy (Collective Care Circle)

Group Yoga Therapy is designed to guide individuals through a progressive movement practice, starting with sessions as short as 15 to 30 minutes and gradually extending to about an hour. The aim of these classes is to explore ourselves by cultivating presence in each changing moment through the practice of yoga asanas and pranayama.

Who Needs This Service?

People who identify as 'lazy,' those who fear big commitments, and those diagnosed with anxiety, depression, CPTSD, or ADHD can benefit from these classes.

Why Holistic Mind Clinic?

At the Holistic Mind Clinic, you are a person, not a patient. At the Holistic Mind Clinic, for our doctors and therapists, you are NOT a ‘patient’ who needs ‘diagnosis and treatment’. You are a ‘person’ who needs ‘care, support, and emotional wellness’ in your personal, professional, and social life.

At Holistic Mind Clinic, we give you holistic protocol for treatment and not just a ‘prescription’ for your anxiety or depression.

At Holistic Mind Clinic, we practise mind-body medicine; not just medicines for the mind. We ensure you receive emotional wellness for your long-term holistic healing of body and mind.

At Holistic Mind Clinic, mental health problems are considered dynamic states of mind and not static conditions. Our mental state changes every day and hence we believe in dynamic ongoing care and not a one-time treatment.

At Holistic Mind Clinic, like a trusted friend, philosopher, and guide, we help you get better, not just feel better.
