Dr. Renu E George (PhD)

I had approached Renu earlier this year, and my liaison with her now is about 8 months old and counting. At the onset of my therapy, I was in a phase of anxiety, stress, relationship problems, a lot of self-doubts, and completely out of depth. Every single session I had with Renu has been very insightful and helped to understand myself and my problems in a whole different light. Renu would patiently listen to me whine and yap away my concerns, sometimes my silliest of fears, and my gravest worries intently. What I strongly like about Renu is her depth of understanding her patients and their needs, while some of us are looking for validation, some are looking for solutions and some just want patient ears. Sometimes, a single patient wants this all, at various points in the therapy. And, this is what makes Renu the most empathetic and the most professional, she understands her patients need without being told to and would support them the way they want to be supported. Another very rare quality is her strong ethical values; it’s very seldom that you find people who are not only masters of their trade but also highly ethical and honest. It’s all these that makes her the most approachable, and a genius of a problem solver. While I write this, I stand at a much better place in life and in much control of my emotions and my mental health. I cannot but be more thankful of Renu and I strongly recommend her, and I believe she could easily pass off as one of the best therapists in town!

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 :)👍

Empowering, Supportive, and Solution-Oriented Therapy:

I’ve had an incredibly positive experience with Dr. Renu George. She created a space where I felt truly heard and supported from the start.

Unlike past experiences where therapy felt either too passive or overly generalized, Dr. George strikes the perfect balance—offering thoughtful guidance and practical solutions tailored to real-life challenges. What I appreciate most is her problem-solving approach. Rather than asking me to lower my ambitions, she has helped me develop the resilience and strategies to pursue them. Therapy with her has never been about accepting limitations but about overcoming them.

One of the aspects I appreciate most about my sessions with Dr. George is her belief in ongoing conversations, not just during difficult times but also when things are going well. This ensures she sees the full picture of who I am—both my strengths and struggles—rather than only engaging when I’m at my lowest. This approach makes therapy feel well-rounded, as our discussions are not solely about addressing problems but also about understanding patterns, reinforcing positive habits, and identifying the deeper roots of challenges. Her flexibility in adapting sessions to my evolving needs, rather than rigidly following a set plan, makes the process feel natural, insightful, and genuinely helpful. The pacing is just right—providing immediate support when needed while also allowing space for self-reflection and meaningful progress.

Additionally, Dr. George is mindful of personal circumstances, making therapy more accessible and effective. I really appreciate her sensitivity to my need for privacy in an online setting, accommodating in ways that make therapy far more effective for me.

Overall, working with Dr. George has not just helped me cope with challenges but has actively contributed to my growth as a person. For anyone looking for a therapist who combines empathy with actionable guidance and genuinely supports personal development, I highly recommend her.

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.

I have visited her for marital issues. In couple of sessions she figured out my individual personality issues which were creeping into and degenerating the marriage. She helped me realise the personality disorders I am having and how to manage them. She used to listen to me very patiently and helped me heal from all the past emotional abuse I had gone through...Everytime I came out of session feeling more positive, confident and happier....She not only counseled me inside a closed room during the session but was available over phone, text etc. I had anxiety and I used to bug her often over phone, emails...but she was very patient and never got irritated or asked me to go elsewhere. She helped me as much as possible and when she noticed it is becoming a habit, she gradually pulled back her support because that was unhelathy and as a therapist she is supposed to make me independent in solving my problems on my own and not to depend on her always. I used to question her or argue with her at time when a solution suggested by her seemed unreasonable and she always clarified it without feeling offended. I was wretched, after meeting her I felt peaceful, satisfied and confident to pursue my bucket list which I had postponed for the longest time due to lack of confidence and fear of failure.

Our marital issues are still not resolved and is in progress. So it would be unfair to comment on it now. Once, we are out of therapy I will post the feedback on marital counseling.

Overall, she loves her job and is very good at it. She is unlike other doctors whose aim is to see the patient, suggest few things and send them back home or keep money milking. It was she who asked me to stop therapy as my issues were resolved, when I was insisting on seeing her because going and talking to her had become a part of my life. I was in therapy with her for almost 2.5 years and therefore I know her very well. However, sometimes the language and the way they counsel is quite confusing at times and I have always given her this feedback but I guess this is how it is supposed to be done. Due to one of my PD, I really have high standards to evaluate people and it is not easy for me to appreciate somebody. ** **** ***** ****** **** ** ********* ***** *** **** ** * ****** **** ****** **

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 have been struggling with multiple mental health issues for over 4 years now and have been to several therapists across the country seeking help. Brain to Mind and Dr. Renu was kind of a last resort before a final breakdown for me and from the first ever text message she replied to, the experience was reassuring. She is empathetic, kind, thoughtful, trustworthy and moreover patient. From a point of utter disinterest in life to baby steps now for reclaiming myself and life, Dr. Renu always stood by me, patiently. Best part of her approach is that she never forces solutions onto me but patiently guided to untangle the thoughts, think more deep, address the trauma and empowered me to find solutions on my own. I am indebted to Dr. Renu for this second chance at life.

She helped me cope with, and understand my condition. She goes above and beyond for her patients. I had to stop my therapy sessions as I was leaving the city, but she offered to continue on skype sessions with me. I have since had therapy with other doctors, none of them are as personal as she was. Not just for me, but also for helping my family understand my situation.

I would definitely recommend going to her for any mental health issues. Her assistance does not end with the 50 minutes of the therapy session, she was available for me anytime when I could not handle my situation.

Dr.renu e George is the most benevolent person I have seen so far.i feel very lucky to be her client.she is a very very sensible person with a great empathy and a never fading smile on her face.to be short,she thinks with her heart and acts with her brain.always makes sure that she replies her patients promptly.i recommend mam for any kind of psychological problems to everyone.she isn’t back of money but she cares only the progress of treatment.best patient friendly doctor I have seen so far.I’m an anaesthesiologist suffering from OCD for the past 4 yrs.mam came into my life only 6 months back.i wish I had known her long back.thank you mam.

I approached Dr. Renu when I was going through chronic stress, and the resultant anxiety was affecting my decision-making and problem-solving abilities in a very negative way. I found her friendly, approachable, sensitive, and very patient as a listener. She encouraged me to analyze my problems from various perspectives so that I could develop a deeper understanding of myself and my automatic thoughts.

In 7 sessions, she could lift me out of my state of persistent anxiety to a place where I could attack back my negative thoughts and find the solutions to my problems. Though my last session with her was more than 1.5 months back, she continues to be available for suggestions on mail.

All in all, I highly recommend her.
