Dr. Arpitha was very patient and understanding during my sessions. She listened carefully and explained the treatment plan clearly. I started feeling better within a few weeks.
Dr Arpitha was incredible for my stress during pregnancy. She took time to understand my fears and explained things clearly. Her perinatal therapy and advice helped so much, I felt safe with her. Will recommend to all future mothers to care for their mental health because it does get impacted and no one talks about it. Sukoon is a good place for this.
Didn’t know what to expect when i took dad to see dr arpitha but she was so patient and got him to open up, which is rare. Her treatment plan is helping him improve every day. Her caring approach and expertise are top-notch, would definitely see her again
