Brain To Mind: Center For Psychological Assessment & Psychotherapy

Dr. Renu is the best person to approach:)

She has helped through a lot of tough times of my own. She is kind, sensitive and makes her intentions towards you, very clear. She also helps you think through your actions.

She is the most real and genuine person you could find, and that's exactly what you need during some of your low points; a person who lets you know that things het better no matter what,that you are not alone and there's always a person who'll listen to you without judging you at all.

She is a person who learns about your past,your life,you; to find ways on helping you become a better person and to provide you with all the support a d strength you need both emotionally and mentally rather than punishing you for them. A well experienced person who empathises,and stands by you through it all, as a guide and as a friend. Well, it is never too late to make amends... Ans she reassures you of just that and helps you kick in a start towards this idea.

She is one person who genuinely cares and tries to help you, not just out of a professional formality but, out of pure concern and love.

Along these lines of a doctor-patient relationship, i know i found a friend and with time..m so will you!

I have gotten much better after my sessions with her, and it definitely is a 15/5 recommendation :)👍

Dr. Renu is treating a very close family member and on behalf of my family and self, I would like to thank her and share my experience with her therapy.

At the start, our family member strongly resisted treatment, fully believing he is fine although it was apparent to others around him, he needs help. As laypersons, that is all we knew i.e. that he needs counselling.

Dr. Renu's understanding and grasp of our family member's condition has been invaluable. Her empathy towards her patient's condition has given him the strength to cope and make necessary changes in his lifestyle and thought process.

Today it is most gratifying to note he looks forward to his sessions with Dr. Renu which have greatly helped him. He still has a long way to go but we have faith in Dr. Renu's ability to point him in the right direction; i.e direction towards a bright and fulfilling life ahead of him. Thank you Dr. Renu!

I contacted Dr Renu to get over my exam related anxiety. I wasn't clearing a major exam because of my anxiety getting in the way of my preparation. I was thinking I'll be going through counselling, breathing exercises and stuff, because I had contacted psychologists earlier as well, and these were the things that they focused on and was a bit worried whether it would again be not helpful, as I had already tried all those. But the solution that Dr Renu recommended was very simple,but it actually made sense, as I knew it was my preparation that I was falling short on as my anxiety was coming in the way and she taught me how to do my preparation properly and fight my anxiety. I was in touch with her throughout my preparation journey and at each appointments, she used to patiently help me get over the mental blocks and apprehensions that I was having. Her support helped me to focus on my preparation properly and by God's grace, I could clear my exam this time. This was an exam I had thought I would never clear. But Dr Renu helped me get over that fear and helped me in achieving my dream.

I would highly recommend Dr Renu and I, myself, will be contacting her in future for her guidance in navigating my mind. Thank you doctor.

I had consulted her for sometime (April 19 last week to July 1st week) but due to financial difficulties I had to stop the sessions. I got back to her after a few months (Jan 2020 last week) asking if she could work on a reduced fee basis and once I took up a job I could pay the balance cumulatively and she got back to me with a few places where I could get consultations for free and even before I got back to her with my reservations going there, she blocked me. And funnily I went to her in the first place initially because my fiance had gone incognito on me and I needed therapy to get over that and now she does the same thing. This happened in the last week of Jan 2020 and it has taken me two and half months to get my semblance back to write this review. Lot of things she did during the therapy was overlooked (ex : not understanding the sensitivity or gravity of the situation and divulging information to me that my mother had messaged her complaining about me and several other things) because I felt I was getting better but now in hindsight no coping mechanism was given, no tools were given. Nothing, zilch. She works with a psychiatrist called Dr . Preeti patil *** **** ** **** **** ** **** ****** Her review will be posted promptly under her name shortly. In her therapy sessions I often would console myself and tell her that I wish the best for my fiance and I'd like to repeat the same to her.

I visited her when i was pregnant and was having mental health issues. Her consultation fee is expensive compared to other psychologists around but her consultation is worth it. But, in my case after the first session she was not ready to treat me further without accompanying someone along. I did not have my family with me and my husband was totally unsupportive for the sessions. After a lot of research on best psychologist, i reached out to her and felt very good after talking to her but sadly she ended her sessions with me abruptly.It is difficult to get a slot with her. It will be better if she can give some concession for people who are at the critical need of counseling help.

Dr Renu has been a god send for me and my family. She has the ability to be firm and friendly at the same time and is excellent at putting the patient at ease and winning his or her confidence. She is highly ethical in her conduct towards patients in terms of maintaining confidentiality etc. I would recommend her strongly and without hesitation to anyone who needs support to overcome mental health challenges.

I approached Dr. Renu E George who is a Clinical Psychologist in Arekere, Bangalore via practo portal when my adult daughter had been suffering from boots of depression and anxiety.

Initially my daughter was not that co-operative like failing to turn up for the counselling sessions at appointment time . In spite of that Dr.Renu E George has been very considerate and took valuable counselling sessions. She is intellectually brilliant, a compassionate and understanding listener. She encouraged my daughter to analyze her problems from various angles so that she could develop a deeper understanding of her and her negative thoughts .Every counselling session of her made my daughter to become self aware, and started slowly healing the various types of insecurities of my child and made her aware about her shortcomings like low self esteem and other negative traits. She did a tremendous job and virtually ensured that without taking medicines my daughter was almost able to overcome the depression and negative thoughts and able to lead a normal life. Even though every session is to be timed for 1 hr depending upon the need and without charging any extra money the Doctor used to extend the sessions for more than 1 hr and sometimes it went upto 2hrs. For Dr.Renu George money is only secondary, but her prime objective is treating her patients successfully and enable them to overcome the stigma associated with mental illness like depression and anxiety. Myself and our family will be ever grateful to our great clinical psychologist Doctor Renu George in Arekere,Bangalore for her great service towards humanity in eradicating the mental illness.

Very empathetic and compassionate, Doctor Renu has been a huge help in dealing with my anxiety issues. I feel she really gets me.

I went to Renu individually to help her control my physical outbursts during argument with my partner. My response was out of my personality and I knew I need expert’s help to understand and combat my reactions. She was great, empathetic, for the first 3sessions. On the first session she assured me, it is a relationship issue, and she would like to see my husband as well, if possible. She also assured me to “teach” how to control my reactions better. We saw her for almost a year. She never shared any solutions, or suggestions for helping me with my behaviourial issues. Insisted on weekly couples therapy. And during those sessions I was simply getting bashed and verbally abused by my husband. Renu visibly empathised with him. I entered deep depression. I used to come back from the sessions unable to communicate my thoughts and battered Badly every time. I repeatedly requested for twice a month visits, so that I can digest all the abuse and allegations, collect my thoughts and go back for hopefully a productive session. However Renu kept insisting for weekly visits. At one point I felt she is responding in ways my spouse is responding, and I shared this with Renu. Up on which, very professionally she thanked me for sharing the “feedback” which she disclosed will help her future approach. After a few more weeks, when I could not perceive any betterment of the approach, I called her to say that I would not like to see her, since I do not think it is working out. Renu used to communicate between me and my husband, for sharing informations like appointment schedules. At the time of the call, I asked her if she wants she can continue having individual sessions with my husband and she can communicate my decision to him. To which she said she will not see my husband separately and (rightly) said, I need to directly communicate with my partner about my decision of not seeing her. Good. So I communicated with my spouse and communicated back to her that my spouse is aware that we are not seeing her anymore. Now comes the interesting part.

Renu was aware that my spouse has the habit of blackmailing me using my depression (which was also due to my postpartum state) as a weapon. She said upfront that she does not support this attitude of his, and we shared how I think mental health issues are taboos for our society. A few months later my forever blackmailing husband, who even in Renu’s presence shared that he is correct in threatening me, shared with me a recording of a phone call between Renu and him. This call was clearly made from Renu’s side after it has been communicated with her over call and text that we will not be seeing her anymore as a couple. In the call, she goes on to share with my husband how stubborn I am, and how I think she is colluding with him, and I would only do what I think is correct. *** ********* **** ******* ********* ** ** ******* *********** *** **** ***** ****** ** *** *** **** ** ****** *********** ** ****** ** **** *********** ********** *** *** ******* ** ***** The cherry on the cake: She said, if she could she would wring my arm and drag me for therapy.

So much for patient doctor trust levels and openness.

Therapists are humans too. **** *** ******** ** ***** ****** ** ******** But when you are in the occupation of saving peoples lives and minds, you need to be a bit more cautious and perhaps a little less confident of your ability to help.
