FAQs
Why did you choose to become a therapist?
Mental health is not taken seriously. There is a stigmatisation of mental health illnesses which I want to contribute in changing. I like interacting with people. i feel it very easy to connect with anybody on the earth. Not being in a good state of mental health affects the productivity, personal life, basically quality of life. If I fix this than I am making a huge impact in his/her life.
