I have been experiencing conflict with friends and family members. After joining work, i realized that i am unable to focus on work as couldn't be cordial with my colleagues. With increased stress, i decided to take help. Dr. Chaudhuri very patiently explained me the problem. She showed ke how i was critical unintentionally and would have unrealistic expectations. With her sessions, i gradually saw improvement in my relations. I am now well adjusted at home and in workplace. I am really indebted to maam for being such a timely help and motivating factor in my life.
Visited For Child and Adolescent Problems
Happy with:Â Doctor friendliness
My child aged 10 years had major difficulty with communication. He could not speak for himself and was severely bullied in school. He also lost interest in studies and would feel fearful. After visiting Dr. Chaudhuri, she explained us the problems of our child in terms of expressive speech and helped us with mild medication. We were also suggested to provide supportive and non critical environment which really helped him. With social skills training and relaxation, my child is much better and is well adjusted in school. He also is performing well with academics. I really am thankful to Doc for her timely guidance and right directions. We strongly recommend her.
I am having premarital jitters and was gradually becoming confused about my decision related to the groom. After 3 to 4 months of courtship I began to feel low, anxious and could not sleep at all. Apart from apprehension related to post marriage responsibilities I also felt that we may not be compatible. When unable to deal with it anymore I went to the doctor. Within 3 sessions I started feeling composed and felt more confident about my decision. I could also sleep well. She gave medicine only for a short time and was a big help in my critical phase. I am very satisfied with the doctor and strongly recommend her.
got my child to Maam with serious behavioral issues. My child would hit other children in school and would be violent at home with minor arguments and if denied of any demands. He would also lie to me and would not listen to any of my instructions. Following maams advice, and mild medication I can manage him much better. He has completely stopped hitting. Prathama maam gave really simple suggestions which were easier for the child to follow. I am really happy with the progress of my child and would really recommend her.
