Children First ExpertTanvi Chatterjee
M. Phil, MA, BA
5 years of experience
I offer mental health care for individuals aged 8–25.
I draw the philosophy of my therapy from this quote from The Little Prince: "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." I love remembering the child that I once was when I am working with kids and their families. I have done my M. Phil in Clinical Psychology from NFSU, Gujarat, and my Master is in Psycho-Social Clinical Studies from Ambedkar University, Delhi. Apart from work, I love talking about ice hockey, Formula 1, food shows, and random trivia, like the Emu wars.

FAQs
Why did you choose to become a therapist?
Witnessing human resilience in the face of challenges has captivated me since childhood. As a therapist, I have the privilege of witnessing these journeys unfold and supporting individuals in their self-discovery. Therapy allows me to connect with others on a profound level, creating genuine and meaningful interactions.
