Therapy helped me calm down, reflect on my own patterns, and recognize how both of us were struggling and growing together. It truly brought more clarity, understanding, and peace into our relationship. KD Kavya Das 3 months ago I had tried several therapy sessions in the past without seeing any noticeable changes in my thought patterns. Then, I decided to give Ello Mind a try. My therapist, Teresa, is very friendly, and I was able to connect with her perspective right away. She has already helped me make a positive change during one of the lowest points in my life. DJ Dhanya James 11 months ago I’ve been attending therapy sessions with Hyma ma’am, and the experience has been incredibly positive. She creates a safe and comfortable environment, allowing me to open up and explore my thoughts at my own pace. Her approach is both professional and compassionate. I’m truly grateful for the progress I’ve made with her guidance. GG Gokul G Bhattathiri a year ago Experienced team of clinical psychologists who provide excellent services. I’d highly recommend anyone who’d wish to seek help in need, be it something in your personal or professional life. Sessions are flexible, they provide online and offline services, information shared is kept extremely confidential. IJ Irene James 10 months ago I cannot thank Ms. Hyma enough for her incredible support and guidance. She helped me manage my anxiety issues and regain the energy and confidence to handle my work, as well as find time for my hobbies. She helped me organize my schedule effectively and deal with situations rationally. Definitely recommend! SK Susan Kurien a year ago I had a great experience with Ellomind. I worked with Teresa and she is a wonderful therapist. Helped me get my thoughts sorted and gave some effective exercises that helped me on my mental wellness journey. I am giving this feedback a few months after my sessions ended and still feel great. The effects of the therapy are long lasting. AT Aswathi T P 2 years ago Teresa was able to correctly identify that I had issues with confidence and assertiveness using the right questions and exercises. She then taught me CBT frameworks and techniques that helped me improve my self-image. Teresa is very open to receiving feedback and integrating it into subsequent sessions. SP Sidharth Praveen 2 years ago I’ve been taking sessions at Ello Mind since 2023, and Teresa has helped me overcome many things. She doesn’t just give advice — she helps you understand yourself better. She listens patiently and really tries to understand what you’re going through. I genuinely appreciate her work and highly recommend Ello Mind. MA Mohammed Althaf a month ago Being my first experience with a therapist, I could not have asked for a better group than Ello Mind & a better therapist than Ms. Hyma. My therapist has been extremely supportive and has helped in calming me. Would recommend to anyone who is in need of support. AN Ashwin N a year ago 10/10 experience. Really good place, I felt super comfortable opening up here. Ellomind gave me a safe space to talk and feel understood. The therapists are kind and supportive, I always leave feeling lighter. Honestly the best decision I made for myself this year. GN Gayatri Nair 5 months ago › ## Mental health care in Calicut today Calicut has a unique relationship with mental health. The Malabar region has one of the highest rates of Gulf migration in India. Families here often deal with years of physical separation, financial pressure from remittances, and the emotional weight of having a spouse or parent living abroad. These are the kinds of concerns that do not always look like a "mental health problem" from the outside, but they wear people down. Gulf migration highest rates from Malabar Cyberpark growing IT workforce ₹1,049 starting per session The Government Mental Health Centre in Kozhikode (IMHANS Kozhikode campus) handles psychiatric cases, and the Kozhikode Medical College has a psychiatric department. These are equipped for severe conditions that require medication or inpatient care. For day to day stress, relationship strain, anxiety, or grief, talk therapy with a psychologist is usually more appropriate than a psychiatric consultation. Cyberpark Kozhikode has also brought a younger, IT-working population to the city, and with it, the same burnout and work stress patterns seen in Kochi and Bangalore. Private psychologists in Calicut are harder to find compared to Kochi or Trivandrum, and the ones available often have limited slots. Online therapy removes that constraint entirely. ## Psychologist, psychiatrist, or both? They do different things. Here is how to decide. What we do ### Psychologist 50 minute talk therapy sessions CBT, trauma therapy, emotion focused therapy Anxiety, depression, relationships, grief No medication involved When medication is needed ### Psychiatrist •Medical doctor (MBBS + MD Psychiatry) •Diagnoses conditions, prescribes medication •10 to 20 minute consultations •For severe depression, bipolar, psychosis Some people benefit from both. If our psychologists feel medication could help, they will refer you to a psychiatrist. We do not prescribe, but we make sure you get the right care. ## Psychiatrists and mental health hospitals in Calicut Kozhikode has several psychiatric facilities, including some of Kerala's oldest. If medication or inpatient care is needed, these are the main options. ### Hospitals and clinics **Government Mental Health Centre (GMHC), Kozhikode** Government Government psychiatric hospital at Kuthiravattom, operating since 1872\. 22 acre campus with 9 wards, a pay ward, a de-addiction ward, and outpatient services.
