As an 18 y/o who'd just graduated high-school in a covid-stricken year, I was overwhelmed with anxiety thinking about my career ahead and stressed over the looming uncertainty the year brought on. Focussing on the simplest of tasks had become a problem, to sleep disorders and lack of interest in daily tasks. Consequently, I sought out a therapist who could guide me and make me visualize the bigger picture. Fortunately, I stumbled upon Ms. Moumita Ganguly's profile. Since the very first day, she has listened to all my issues patiently, reminded me of the life principles I had forgotten, that has calmed me down over the days and helped me gain my confidence. As a teenager, I was extremely overwhelmed by the societal pressure, even considering social media intimidation, and I was unable to open up to anybody. With Ms.Moumita Ganguly, I found a mentor who totally understands my perspective, and guides me along the right path. Stricken with irregular sleep over the last year, she urged me with a proper sleep routine and regular physical exercise which has helped me in maintaining a better mental health over the past month. As a person who strictly believes in maintaining a routine to lead my day, Moumita ma'am helped me to device a comfortable routine to go about my day that is devoid of any sort of stress, dissatisfaction or boredom. After consulting Moumita Ma'am, I also gained clarity in choosing a career path that I would truly love and to make life decisions fearlessly and without any regrets.
Although it has only been a month since I had consulted her, my life has changed in numerous ways, as I wake up with a new refreshing energy everyday, adapting to the new normal, and being grateful for everyday of life!

I took my first session in Feb 2022 when my entire world had fallen apart owing to psychological issues, unresolved family conflicts, childhood traumas, loneliness, stress, sexual orientation and sex problems. Moumita madam patiently has listened to all my problems over a couple of sessions and finally guided me with the right solution. She has helped me to find the root cause of my problems by giving simple examples from our day-to-day lives. I'm able to address most of the issues, and in the process of addressing the rest of them. Even today after more than a year, whenever I feel that I'm facing something that I'm unable to resolve by myself, I contact her and she always guides me with the right advice and solution.

Personally , I feel that, a counsellor must be a gd listener & She gave a quite amount of time & attention to listen to all my problems & sometyms my messy explanations too. Honestly, am saying that, she is one of the God gift to me at the tym of my terrible mental breakdwn. She was very friendly (just like an elder sister) when dealing with me & my prblms frm the very 1st session. She was really a great relief to me. I could discuss my any kind of prblms with her without any hesitation, she comforted me again & again. I feel somewhat better noe. She has s strong charming personality, positive attitude & friendly nature which boost me up & give a lot of confidence to me. THANK YOU SO MUCH MA'AM.❤

I visited her clinic to get rid of pornogrphic addiction She patiently listened my problems and help me identifying the underlying cause which was my inability to effectively communicate with others. She use to give tasks which would eventually help to outcome the problems. Nevertheless one has to work on his/her problems under the guidance of ma'am and only by that way it's possible to cure those. Online counseling is also available if anyone wants to avail it.
I had a decent experience however time management could be improved.

Not 100% Bad but not good either. I will explain both here.
BAD- Without intending to question her expertise, I would like to say that I felt she lacks experience(totally my personal opinion). She was friendly but the meeting proved to be useless for me. I told her that I cannot manage to do certain things so I need help. Her solution was you HAVE to do it. Is that a solution? I have already tried to do them but I failed, that's why I am here in the 1st place. She was like- it's your life and nobody else can do them for you. I already know that mam, why are you stating the obvious? I can tell these things to myself without being a psychologist. I know I HAVE to do it but HOW? No fruitful answer.
She did not ask me much questions, did not try to go to the depth or showed no efforts to try and know me or my problems better. ***** ** ******** **** *** ******* *** **** * **** **** * *** ******* ** * ****** ****** ****** **** * *************
She provided me such solutions like 'I HAVE TO' within 10 minutes of discussion, and wanted to finish the meeting within 15 minutes, I was about to make payment and get out of there, then somehow the topic changed and the meeting went on for 30-35 minutes in total.
GOOD- The 2nd part of the meeting was actually better. She tried to provide some logical answers for some of my questions. I was in double mind. I felt that if I follow some of these later suggestions, my situations can improve, but the 1st part of the meeting was so bad that I just could not manage to put my trust and confidence in her. I really felt that she failed to understand me and to what extend these problems are disturbing me, and how much helpless I am feeling- she failed to understand the severity.
I am no one to comment on how good or bad she is at her job, I would only like to say that it did not work out well for me (but that does not mean that it will not work out for others).

I am extremely disappointed with the lack of professionalism of Moumita Ganguly. She made me feel more depress than I already felt. Instead of showing sensitivity and trying to begin to uncover the root causes of what affected me, she chose to be judgmental and simply be dismissive of what I was feeling.The basic standard of care to help someone who is in a fragile state was shockingly absent. I know one's problems might feel trivial to another person but that's not what's expected of a therapist. The things she said to me are the unhealthy things I already say to myself. I think no one should charge to tell you "put all your mind into working and not thinking about it and you'll be fine"...that's what you expect from an unthinking uncle. Literally, she said: "toh ki korbe? Ei shob faltu chinta korbe na ki porashona te mon debe?" I think she needs to change her perspective of looking at people who come to her for help...more important than a refund, I am owed an apology for this callous treatment. Having gone to her seeing all these reviews, I felt obligated to let the public know that the existing reviews may not be painting the full picture. I have met other top therapists in Kolkata through Practo, and trust me, there are better options. I wrote this also with the hope that Moumita will learn from this feedback and do better with her future clients.

The overall experience was great, I'd certainly recommend her for everyone and specifically for young patients. It was quite a nice time. I'm looking forward to completing my tasks and following the procedures which were very detailed and precise.
Thanks
Visited For Depression Counselling
This was my first ever counselling experience. I was quite anxious before my visit to the clinic as I was unsure whether this would work for me. But she listened to my problems patiently and commented only after she'd heard me entirely. She gave me simple and easy tasks to do before I see her again. I was hopeful by the end of the session and look forward to the next one.
