The treatment approach involves a combination of emotional wellness practices, trauma therapy, lifestyle modifications, and coping strategies personalized to the individual's needs.

Our Success Stories

Overcoming Severe OCD with Comprehensive Treatment at Holistic Mind Clinic

Introduction: Rishi (name changed), a 24-year-old software engineer, from Bihar, now staying in Mumbai, sought help at Holistic Mind Clinic for severe Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder(OCD) that had significantly impacted his personal, professional, and social life. Struggling with obsessive thoughts about cleanliness and sexuality, guilt about these thoughts, and social anxiety and trauma, Rishi found it challenging to maintain relationships, hold down a job, and even perform basic tasks like grocery shopping without experiencing overwhelming anxiety which led to decrease in his mental health and emotional wellness.

Background: Rishi’s OCD symptoms began to manifest during his late teens, gradually intensifying over the years. His compulsive behaviours and intrusive thoughts caused him immense anxiety and trauma, leading to bullying by cousins, conflicts with family members, and feelings of isolation. To escape all this, he ran away from home. That is when his family members sought psychiatric treatment in Patna. Rishi was prescribed heavy medication, but no detailed evaluation or psychotherapy was conducted. As Rishi got into college, his symptoms persisted, affecting every aspect of his personal and social life. After finishing college, Rishi moved in with his brother who lived in Mumbai.

Treatment at Holistic Mind Clinic: It was Rishi’s brother who found Dr. Meghna, a psychiatrist in Mumbai and Holistic Mind Clinic through Google searches and reviews and got him to the clinic. Upon seeking treatment at Holistic Mind Clinic, Rishi underwent a comprehensive assessment to understand the underlying factors contributing to his OCD. As Dr. Meghna is trained in both psychiatry services and cognitive behaviour therapy; she could prescribe a personalised psychiatry treatment plan tailored to Rishi’s needs.

Approach
1. Medication Management and Emotional Wellness: Dr. Meghna carefully reviewed Rishi’s medication regimen and worked to gradually reduce unnecessary medications, minimizing side effects, anxiety, and trauma and optimizing effectiveness along with his emotional wellness.
2. Goal-Oriented Psychotherapy Treatment: Rishi engaged in goal-oriented psychotherapy treatment sessions focused on cognitive-behavioral techniques, exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness-based approaches. Through these sessions, Rishi learned to challenge his obsessive thoughts, confront his fears gradually, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. His spiritual practices also provided him with an initial sense of calm, overcoming his anxiety and depressing thoughts and over some time, a social support group.
3. Psychoeducation of Caregivers: In addition to individual psychiatry therapy, Rishi’s family members were given psychoeducation about OCD and its impact on his life. By understanding the nature of Rishi’s condition and learning supportive strategies, his caregivers played a vital role in his recovery journey.

Outcome: After several months of dedicated psychiatry treatment at the Holistic Mind Clinic, Rishi experienced significant improvements in his mental health and overall emotional wellness. His obsessive thoughts decreased by 90%, and he gained confidence in managing his symptoms. With newfound resilience and coping skills, Rishi successfully reintegrated into society, reconciled with his family members, and secured employment as a software engineer, where he has been thriving for the past 2.5 years.

Conclusion: At a recent visit to Holistic Mind Clinic, which Rishi continues to do once in 6 months, Rishi told how he went home to Bihar for a family function and how confident he felt dealing with his cousins and relatives. At Holistic Mind Clinic, Rishi’s journey exemplifies the transformative power of collaborative and integrative treatment for severe OCD. Through comprehensive psychiatry treatment, including medication, goal-oriented psychotherapy treatment, and psychoeducation of caregivers, Rishi overcame his debilitating symptoms and reclaimed his life. At Holistic Mind Clinic, we remain committed to providing personalised and holistic care to individuals like Rishi, empowering them to achieve lasting mental health and physical as well as emotional wellness.

Introduction: Preeti (name changed), a 30-year-old Chartered Accountant from Delhi, sought help for severe depression following a life-altering accident that served as a wake-up call post that her mental health was affecting her physical well-being and her emotional wellness.

Background: Preeti’s depression was marked by a gradual decline in her mental and emotional wellness. Neglecting her own needs and prioritizing the demands of her career and relationships, Preeti found herself overwhelmed by feelings of sadness, anxiety, and low self-esteem.

Intervention: Thankfully, Preeti’s friend, Diya, who had benefited from the psychiatry treatment at Holistic Mind Clinic under the care of Dr. Meghna, recognized the severity of Preeti’s condition and urged her to seek help. Under the guidance of Dr. Meghna, Preeti embarked on a comprehensive psychiatry treatment journey through her severe depression.
