I've been going through a tough time in my marital life since Nov 2022 and was finding it hard to cope with everything. I had tried 1 counselling session in Nov 2022 with a different counselor and the counselor barely listened to me and told me to reduce stress and get more sleep to fix my issues, even when I told her that it was difficult for me to do that, so I did not try any more therapy sessions or look out for other therapists assuming all will be the same. Naturally the issues built up over the last year and reached a point in Dec 2023 where I could not take it anymore. I started doing more research and came across Dr. Mala's profile and thought I should give therapy another try. I'm very glad and relieved about this decision. It took 2 sessions to describe what I was going through in my marriage and she patiently listened to me without any interruptions or judgement, she then gave me a few exercises to write down. I have completed 5 sessions so far and am slowly healing. Therapy is slow and steady and obviously I will take time to heal, but I do see a shift in my mindset, I'm less self critical and more loving towards myself. I'm able to be more in control of my decisions and emotions. I feel more confident that with time and more sessions over the next few months, I will be fine and life will be ok. All this is thanks to Dr. Mala and her therapy approach. She balances well between being a caring professional yet not making me too dependent on her. She helps one be more in control of their lives and independant through the exercises and through conversations. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs help, but they need to be patient and willing to put in the work.

I am 40 years old female and for the past14 years, I was struggling with psychological issues that were vaguely put under the umbrella of depression. I had visited many psychologists but I had never received any detailed information about my problems and I never felt understood. It was a coincidence that I came to know about Dr. Mala Murlidhar. I took the appointment and from the very first session, I felt that I am in good hands. She quickly understood my language and summarized it exactly I way I used to feel. She crafts her words very positively. I found her very professional. And the best part was that my session didn’t end on any sympathetic note. I decided to continue with the therapy and it proved to be the right decision.

Dr. Mala was extremely patient while listening to our problems, the sessions we had with her were mostly focused on my partner. But on one of the days, I was feeling extremely confused on a possible path forward. So, I hi-jacked my partner's session to talk to her about my own problems.
