Tanu Choksi's Clinic, Kemps Corner

Hi, i'm a 29 year old male with a family history of depression.

For Counsellors and therapists, there are multiple factors which are involved. While every counsellor may be proficient in their field, since the process requires sharing intimate facts about your personal life, there is a journey which you have to go through with a counsellor.

Since my earlier counsellor had shifted base, I had to search for a new one and after a great deal of skepticism.

But the moment i found out about Mrs. Choksi and read about her experience, I was open to give it a try with her to re-start my self-improvement journey.

From the moment I have entered her clinic, the ambience, the professionalism with which the team has guided me through the appointment and the quick TAT in terms of ensuring all the baseline measures are taken and studied in tandem with talk therapy, have all been an absolute delight.

Within 15 minutes of entering her cabin, I felt the most comfortable and was able to let my guard down.

Not only is that an excellent sign of a counsellor, but along with that, her ability to quickly catch up with my issues and without having me repeat much of my past issues, Tanu Ma'am was able to grasp and diagnose me in no time.

Though i've had only 3-4 sessions with her till date, the effective results are as if i've been seeing her for years!

I would certainly recommend her to all ages of people and families as well. Tanu ma'am is well versed with a variety of situations and will certainly be a great asset to your life and in your journey of understanding and managing oneself better :)

As someone who was hesitant to seek help despite dealing with stress, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts for years, starting therapy with Dr. Tanu has been one of the best decisions I have made for myself. I am very grateful to have found Dr. Tanu. She is ********* ************** thoroughly professional and genuinely compassionate. Her receptive and perceptive attitude towards my concerns is empowering and also facilitates easy, judgement-free communication. Despite my shy personality, she makes it easy for me to talk about my problems and suggests workable solutions without jumping the gun. She also helps me re-assess and re-frame situations; this has helped me consider and accept different perspectives from my own. In the past 5 months that I have been consulting with Dr. Tanu, my family and I have seen clearly discernible results in my behavior, mood, habits and attitude - and I owe it all to Dr. Tanu! I have also come to really look forward to my sessions with her as they have become something I rely on. It keeps me grounded and also gives me a sense of accountability, especially since I am preparing for an exam and navigating difficult situations in my work and personal life. I find myself wanting to make progress for my exam prep between sessions so I can update her on where I am at, which has really helped me stay consistent. Even outside of sessions, I often catch myself hearing her voice in my head in moments where I feel like I am losing control, and it helps me pause, reflect, and handle things better. Looking back, I was at a very dark place when I reached out to Dr. Tanu. Little did I know that my open-mindedness would lead me to discover such an amazing therapist in Dr. Tanu. In a nutshell, my sessions with her contribute heavily to keeping me going and help me hold myself together as I power my way through life. I truly wish I could talk to her for more than just 45 minutes!

Life does not get easy or difficult by someone's/something's existence, their presence may make the way you deal with life easy/difficult. Dr.Tanu has always patiently heard me out and helped me get solutions to my problems. When I first came to her,I honestly did not know how the girl who is unable to share emotions with her loved ones is going to talk about her feelings with someone she hasn't known for long. Ever since my first session with Dr.Tanu, talking about what I am feeling has always felt natural. For someone who does not like meeting a lot of people, therapy sessions are something I always look forward to. Though I have not overcome OCD completely, I feel a lot more better than I did a year ago and I cannot thank Tanu Ma'am for helping me out so much and for being my human diary where I rant out almost anything and everything going on in my life

I have really enjoyed my experience with Dr. Choksi. She is extremely friendly and easy to talk to and despite being a person who is not able to open up that easily, she made it easy to build trust and open up to her. She is very patient and understanding but is also straightforward and honest when needed which I appreciate a lot. I have definitely felt a wholistic improvement since I have began with the doctor and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great therapist or even just a person to and work through any issues. And her beautiful office is an added bonus!

I have been speaking to Tanu since over a month now regarding my anxiety and it has helped me tremendously. She is a genuine person and is extremely understanding and supportive especially during tough times. Her knowledge of psychiatry is extensive and her methods are very down to earth. Being an anxious personality, I was anxious about speaking with her my very first time, however, after the first 5 minutes it was like I was speaking to an old friend. I can definitely say that my sessions with Tanu have eased my anxiety and I have been able to able to tackle issues faced by myself with more confidence and assurance. I would definitely recommend speaking with Tanu if you face similar issues and need someone to hear your troubles.

Thanks for everything!

I was 14 when I started speaking with Dr. Choksi, and I'm now 16. During the pandemic, I was going through a really rough time mentally, and though seeking help was daunting, Dr. Choksi immediately put me at ease with her approachability, effective explanations and insightful suggestions. She helped me through OCD treatment through practicing strategies with me in sessions, giving me tools to cope by myself and creating a completely safe and judgement-free space for me to talk about my mental health freely. She never shies away from telling me what I need to hear, but is always kind, empathetic and respectful in whatever she communicates to me. I've seen a big improvement in my OCD management over the past 1.5 years, through talking to her. She's helped me gain a really deep understanding of the disorder, always managing to put things across in a way that's relatable and digestible. I feel understood and well-supported throughout all our sessions. I value the clarity that I gain through each session - I almost always leave feeling lighter and with a strong, tangible grip on how to improve my mental wellbeing. The only thing I could possibly say needs a bit of reviewing is the gap between sessions, because Dr. Choksi gets quite busy sometimes. Overall, I would definitely recommend her services as they've helped me so much, in so many ways.

I am a 27 year old with bipolar disorder. Mrs. Choksi assessed my health with the MCMI-4 psychometric test and constantly stays in touch with my psychiatrist. Even though I am a doctor myself, explaining that mental health illness is not something I can "snap out of" to my parents was extremely difficult. Mrs. Choksi arranged for a family session and even emailed my parents answers to all their questions so they can refer to them again. She is extremely kind hearted *** ************** She validated my experience and had helped me work on my self so that even my friends can make out the shift in my personality and behavior. She is friendly, approachable, non-judgmental, warm and welcoming. I have shared memories and aspects of my life which I haven't been comfortable telling anyone else. Mrs. Choksi has created a safe space for me and given me realistic expectations and hope as to how to cope with my health. She surpasses all expectations and has given me assignments and techniques to cope with the unpleasant experiences of my life. I would highly recommend her consultation.

I began therapy here 2-3 years ago at the age of 15. Through these years I’ve grown stronger and more capable of coping with my problems. Talking to Ms. Choksi helped me in ways I couldn’t imagine before. I learned how to cope in healthier ways and how to accept my diagnoses and work past them, all from a very kind and understanding human being. I can definitely say I wouldn’t have won my toughest battles and been here today without consulting with Ms. Choksi.

Dr. Tanu Choksi is warm, sensitive and insightful. She is an amazing listener and has astute observation skills. As a result, the questions she asks after listening to your experiences are very relevant, and take the conversation to a place that helps you make valuable reflections. Her approach is caring and she is a great communicator.

I went to dr. Tanu during one of the lowest times of my life. Not knowing what to do, I had brain fog and lack of motivation to do anything. A couple of months of therapy sessions every week helped me turn my life around completely to the way it was before. I am happy, at peace and generally much better now. I would highly recommend seeing her for any counseling/therapy needs.
