What our clients say
Starting couple therapy with Teresa has been one of the best decisions for us. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Mental health care in Kerala
Kerala has higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide compared to many other Indian states. The state also has high literacy and health awareness, which means people are more open to seeking help when they know where to find it. The problem has been access.
Government psychiatric services exist through IMHANS in Trivandrum and Kozhikode, district mental health programmes, and psychiatric departments in medical colleges. These handle severe conditions and are often the right choice when medication or inpatient care is needed. But for people dealing with everyday anxiety, relationship stress, grief, burnout, or low mood, talk therapy with a psychologist is usually more appropriate than a 15 minute psychiatric consultation.
Private psychologists are available in Kochi and Trivandrum, but the number drops sharply in smaller cities and towns. Online therapy changes that equation. Whether you are in Thrissur, Palakkad, Malappuram, or a village in Wayanad, you can talk to a qualified psychologist from wherever you are.
Psychologist, psychiatrist, or both?
They do different things. Here is how to decide.
Psychologist
Psychiatrist
Some people benefit from both. If our psychologists feel medication could help, they will refer you to a psychiatrist. For inpatient care or psychiatric emergencies, see the facility listings below.
