*** ****** ** *** ** *** **** ******* * **** **** ****** ****** ********* She actively listens, expresses compassion, and does not generalise at all. She gently motivated you to take your mental health into your own hands in small incremental steps. Her general availability and openness makes it easy for me to schedule an appointment with her. Her hours are also very good. I have been working with her for the last 9 months on and off and have felt incredibly motivated after every session. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone dealing with generalised anxiety, depression, or general life stresses. She is truly a blessing!

Rachna is very honest, kind, compassionate, and patient. I found myself struggling with constant self-criticism, lack of confidence, and mind/emotional control and she really helped me understand what the root of these are. She helped me break through mental barriers and helped me discover ways to see my problems with a fresh perspective. Most often this perspective showed that the problems weren't necessarily problems, but normal ups and downs of daily life. Through conversations with Rachna, I was able to learn how to better calm my inner critic, control my emotions, and also to understand, listen to, and be loving to myself and others in my life. I would highly recommend Rachna to anyone and everyone who is seeking help or just wants to grow as a person. In the few months since I've been visiting Rachna, I know I've grown more than I can say and I have no doubt she'll have the same impact on anyone who has the privilege of working with her.

Ms. Rachna is an extremely compassionate, kind, patient, friendly, caring and funny person. She had always patiently listened to what I have to say and has always approached to my problems with a sense of practicality.

Ms. Rachna Muralidhar has been extremely diligent in helping me out with my depression, anxiety and mild OCD. I was coping with depression past 3-4 months along with erratic spells of anxiety and mild OCD. When I first approached her, I was a little hesitant(this was the first time I was visiting a Psychologist), however, after having a chat for few minutes, I could make up my mind to speak with her without fear of being judged. She was patient to hear me completely and assisted me through some innovative steps to overcome my fear and anxiety. I would like to appreciate her systematic yet emphatic approach towards understanding and providing guidance to overpower my depression. She never interrupted me when I spoke(at times diverging off the topic) and encouraged me to introspect the situations and consequences irrespective of their nature. My perspective towards certain notions were changed after having a conversation with her. She was instrumental in helping me to self-motivate and accept changes. She helped me learn that- It is better to live in an alternate reality than within an alternate figment of imagination.
