Hello Ma'am
My experience from the start of sessions was amazing..It helped me to evolve as a person and changed my perspective towards life.The way you made me understand each problem and how to tackle it was extremely helpful.. Now I feel elated that I'm able to see growth in my career which I never thought that I could achieve considering the situation before therapy. The key points which you tell me to note during the sessions and told me to read it everyday(which I didn't read initially but gradually I understood the importance) Thank you so much Ma'am for you constant support and counseling ,you guided me properly whenever I was clueless and confused to make proper decision without which it would have not been possible to overcome the challenges in my life.

I visited the doctor for counselling on severe depression, OCD and psychotic features of my illness. Because of OCD I was having difficulties with managing my negative thoughts. Through CBT and other methods of treatment which she provided, I was able to overcome those thougths and replace those negative thougths with positive thougths. Also, she was completely non-judgemental about my symptoms and talked in a polite and understanding manner. From my experience with her therapy, I would recommend anyone needing therapy to her.

Dr. Barkha Patel is a lovely person! She was very understanding about my problems. I was alone and had nobody to talk with about my problems. I was going through a lot at that time. I had been depressed for a very long time even after being in a relationship with someone. She made me realise what went wrong and how to tackle it. I did what she said and now im free from the illness i had. I wish I had met her earlier. I will totally recommend her. I'm so glad i had her as a friend not just a doctor. She listened to whatever i had in mind and made sure to be there for me. She's very friendly. Thank you so much Dr. Barkha Patel.

Going to therapy was one of the best decisions I've taken. Ms. Barkha has been extremely understanding and receptive. She has offered the needed insight and helped me to dive deeper to analyse not only my patterns, but also all the parts that I was unaware of.
She has helped me gain a greater understanding of human nature, of my own self and my environment.

Barkha was very helpful and was to the point. While getting consulting from her, I never thought I was actually talking to a doctor, instead I always thought I am sharing my troubles with a friend.

Empathetic, non judgmental, objective and solution driven - best describe my interaction with Dr. Barkha. She is able to guide the conversation in a way that facilitates self discovery and then is able to articulate the issues and next steps in an easy to understand and implement manner. Her advice is always free of judgment, creating a safe space for the patient to find the courage to open up and discuss any issue that needs to be addressed. And her advice/future course of action is always derived through a collaborative process with the patient, making it relevant, relatable and actionable in the long term. She has helped me in all these ways and I feel empowered by the interactions I have had with her.

I was going through a rough patch post delivery and a friend recommended Barkha. Talking to her I was able to sort through not just issues from my present but also deep rooted problems affecting my psyche. Very calm and insightful, I would definitely recommend her to everyone.
