Dear Mind

Me and my wife consulted Dr Munia for 3 months between January to March 2020, during the course of which we took around 10 therapy sessions. I am writing this feedback so late because the initial feeling that I had was that things are improving, *** ** ** ****** *** I will explain why for anyone who cares about their time and money...

1. In my 1st session itself I asked the doctor why she was not taking notes as I was explaining through my problems ******** * ******* **** ***** ********* ******** *** ****** *** ***** *********** *** ****** ******* ***** ******* * *** ********* * but she said that she remembers everything so she doesn't need to take a note * *** **** **** ** **** *** *** * *** ** * ** ** ******** ******** **** *** ***** ** **** ***** ******** *** ****** *** She actually gave me a list of around 9 sessions that I would need to take.

2. In my next session I went to her with 10 pages of notes about different incidents and observations that I believed were crucial to understanding why the things went wrong. Initially she said, "Please leave the notes with me , I will read them later". When I insisted to discuss about that she said, "If we keep thinking and discussing about the past we are never going to get over with the trauma". Very sensible advice indeed, *** * ******* **** ****** ** ******* ** ******** **** **** *** **** ********** *** ******* ** *** ******* *******

3. But I kept insisting the doctor to give me an explanation of what went wrong - She said that my wife must have had some hormonal imbalance, and that I should spend more time with her and both of us should have our dedicated me time...She also went on to explain how the mind functions etc. And even I felt that wow what an amazing doctor, she takes time to properly explain everything! **** * ** ****** ** **** ** **** ** *** ** ******** ** *** *** ****** **** *** ****** *** ***** **** *********** ***** *** **** ** **** **** **** ********** ** *** ******* ** *** ******** ** ********* **** ** *** **** ***** ** ****** ** ** **** ***** *** ***** ***** ** ****** ****** ******* ** **** ** ****** ***** * **** **** *** ****** ***** ******* **** *** ******** **** ** *** ***** **** * **** **** ** **** **** ******* ** **** *** **** ********* **** ******* * *** ******* * *********** **********

**** ** *** ** ******** ********** *** ** ******** *** ****** ** **** **** ** **** ***** *** **** ****** **** *********** ********* **** **** ***** ******** *** *********** ********** ********* **** * *********** ******** ** ********** ********** *** **** ***** **** ******* ***** *** *** ****** *** * ****** **** ** ********** ********** *********** ** ** *****

The psychologist, Dr, Munia Bhattacharya conducted an initial assessment to understand the nature and severity of my anxiety disorder. She used questionnaires, interviews, and other assessment tools to evaluate the symptoms and identified any underlying factors that may contribute to my anxiety.

Based on the assessment, she collaborated with me to set specific treatment goals. The goals included reducing the intensity and frequency of anxiety symptoms, improving coping skills, and enhancing the overall quality of my life.

Dr. Munia used CBT, which is a type of therapy that focuses on changing negative thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to anxiety. CBT involved various techniques such as exposure therapy, relaxation training, and cognitive restructuring.

Mindfulness-Based Interventions: She used mindfulness-based interventions, such as mindfulness meditation, to help me develop a greater awareness and acceptance of my thoughts and feelings.

Medication: My psychologist prescribed medication to manage symptoms of anxiety, such as anti-anxiety medication or antidepressants.

Lifestyle Changes: My psychologist also recommends lifestyle changes to support my mental health, such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management techniques.

Regular Monitoring and Feedback: She regularly monitors my progress towards their treatment goals and provides feedback and guidance as needed. She made adjustments to my adaptiveness to the therapy.

Had an overall amazing experience with the help of Dr. Munia Bhattacharya which changed my perspective towards life.
