Choosing Psychology as her major in college was a decision that came very easily since she was always inclined towards helping others.Her journey in this field was further enriched when she completed her Masters in Clinical Psychology. Over the years, she has attended many workshops and training programs to keep abreast and updated with the newest approaches and therapies.The recent most feathers in her cap are completing the Advanced Practicum in RE-CBT (Rational Emotive – Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) from the Albert Ellis Institute (AEI), New York, USA and the Advanced-Applied training in RE-CBT with children and adolescents from the same institute.When deciding on a therapist, it is especially important to feel a connection with the one you choose.

Dr. Tanu Choksi is warm, sensitive and insightful. She is an amazing listener and has astute observation skills. As a result, the questions she asks after listening to your experiences are very relevant, and take the conversation to a place that helps you make valuable reflections. Her approach is caring and she is a great communicator.

Hi, i'm a 29 year old male with a family history of depression.
For Counsellors and therapists, there are multiple factors which are involved. While every counsellor may be proficient in their field, since the process requires sharing intimate facts about your personal life, there is a journey which you have to go through with a counsellor.
Since my earlier counsellor had shifted base, I had to search for a new one and after a great deal of skepticism.
But the moment i found out about Mrs. Choksi and read about her experience, I was open to give it a try with her to re-start my self-improvement journey.
From the moment I have entered her clinic, the ambience, the professionalism with which the team has guided me through the appointment and the quick TAT in terms of ensuring all the baseline measures are taken and studied in tandem with talk therapy, have all been an absolute delight.
Within 15 minutes of entering her cabin, I felt the most comfortable and was able to let my guard down.
Not only is that an excellent sign of a counsellor, but along with that, her ability to quickly catch up with my issues and without having me repeat much of my past issues, Tanu Ma'am was able to grasp and diagnose me in no time.
Though i've had only 3-4 sessions with her till date, the effective results are as if i've been seeing her for years!
I would certainly recommend her to all ages of people and families as well. Tanu ma'am is well versed with a variety of situations and will certainly be a great asset to your life and in your journey of understanding and managing oneself better :)

Life does not get easy or difficult by someone's/something's existence, their presence may make the way you deal with life easy/difficult. Dr.Tanu has always patiently heard me out and helped me get solutions to my problems. When I first came to her,I honestly did not know how the girl who is unable to share emotions with her loved ones is going to talk about her feelings with someone she hasn't known for long. Ever since my first session with Dr.Tanu, talking about what I am feeling has always felt natural. For someone who does not like meeting a lot of people, therapy sessions are something I always look forward to. Though I have not overcome OCD completely, I feel a lot more better than I did a year ago and I cannot thank Tanu Ma'am for helping me out so much and for being my human diary where I rant out almost anything and everything going on in my life

I have been speaking to Tanu since over a month now regarding my anxiety and it has helped me tremendously. She is a genuine person and is extremely understanding and supportive especially during tough times. Her knowledge of psychiatry is extensive and her methods are very down to earth. Being an anxious personality, I was anxious about speaking with her my very first time, however, after the first 5 minutes it was like I was speaking to an old friend. I can definitely say that my sessions with Tanu have eased my anxiety and I have been able to able to tackle issues faced by myself with more confidence and assurance. I would definitely recommend speaking with Tanu if you face similar issues and need someone to hear your troubles.
Thanks for everything!

I have really enjoyed my experience with Dr. Choksi. She is extremely friendly and easy to talk to and despite being a person who is not able to open up that easily, she made it easy to build trust and open up to her. She is very patient and understanding but is also straightforward and honest when needed which I appreciate a lot. I have definitely felt a wholistic improvement since I have began with the doctor and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great therapist or even just a person to and work through any issues. And her beautiful office is an added bonus!

I was 14 when I started speaking with Dr. Choksi, and I'm now 16. During the pandemic, I was going through a really rough time mentally, and though seeking help was daunting, Dr. Choksi immediately put me at ease with her approachability, effective explanations and insightful suggestions. She helped me through OCD treatment through practicing strategies with me in sessions, giving me tools to cope by myself and creating a completely safe and judgement-free space for me to talk about my mental health freely. She never shies away from telling me what I need to hear, but is always kind, empathetic and respectful in whatever she communicates to me. I've seen a big improvement in my OCD management over the past 1.5 years, through talking to her. She's helped me gain a really deep understanding of the disorder, always managing to put things across in a way that's relatable and digestible. I feel understood and well-supported throughout all our sessions. I value the clarity that I gain through each session - I almost always leave feeling lighter and with a strong, tangible grip on how to improve my mental wellbeing. The only thing I could possibly say needs a bit of reviewing is the gap between sessions, because Dr. Choksi gets quite busy sometimes. Overall, I would definitely recommend her services as they've helped me so much, in so many ways.

I began therapy here 2-3 years ago at the age of 15. Through these years I’ve grown stronger and more capable of coping with my problems. Talking to Ms. Choksi helped me in ways I couldn’t imagine before. I learned how to cope in healthier ways and how to accept my diagnoses and work past them, all from a very kind and understanding human being. I can definitely say I wouldn’t have won my toughest battles and been here today without consulting with Ms. Choksi.

Starting therapy and that too with a stranger can be an overwhelming step. But I did start in 2020 and haven't regretted it even once. In fact, having a safe space to talk about my innermost thoughts and emotions is really freeing. Tanu is emotionally present and knowledgeable about the subject. She works sincerely to help me achieve my goals.

Where do I start - my experience with Tanu has been life changing. I walked in a mentally weak prettified and anxious person forever fearful. Today I stand fearless and determined to fight my anxiety daily and enjoy the unmistakably precious moments life has to offer. Tanu marries a studied calm and analytical approach with a super positive energy. She is amazing the best listeners I have ever come across, and is effective in helping craft an approach that can work in day to day life. She is methodical in think through patterns and potential resolutions. She is truly a lifesaver and I strongly strongly recommend her! Thank you very much Tanu!!

I'm a 32 year old guy and have been seeking therapy from Tanu ma'am for several months now. She is a highly effective therapist. I was impressed by her ability to understand my worldview, arrive systematically at a diagnosis and then take the associated issues head on. She is also good at helping you grow by challenging your limiting beliefs while also accepting your decisions/quirks in the process, which is pretty rare to find. She is also great at making sessions very action oriented. I am more than happy with the progress that I have made so far. I confidently recommend her to anyone who needs therapy right now.
