What our clients say
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.

Ello Mind is a really good centre for mental health and wellness. From the very first session, they created a safe and supportive space where I felt comfortable opening up. I highly recommend Ello Mind and Ms Teresa to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, and effective therapy.

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.

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.

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.

Mental health care in Trivandrum today
Trivandrum is home to IMHANS (Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences), one of Kerala's main psychiatric institutions. The Kerala State Mental Health Authority (KSMHA) is also headquartered here. For severe psychiatric conditions that require medication or inpatient care, these institutions play an important role.
But most people looking for therapy are not dealing with conditions that need hospitalisation. They are going through anxiety, work stress, difficult relationships, grief, or a stretch of low mood. For these concerns, talk therapy with a psychologist is usually the most effective approach. Psychiatric consultations at government hospitals tend to be short (10 to 15 minutes) and focused on medication. That is not the same as having someone sit with you for 50 minutes and help you work through what is going on.
Trivandrum has a large government and academic workforce, and Technopark has brought a growing IT population. The pressure to perform, combined with long commutes and family expectations, shows up in therapy often. You can compare therapy costs in India before you book, and you do not need to drive anywhere.
Psychologist, psychiatrist, or both?
They do different things. Knowing the difference helps you get the right support.
Psychologist
Psychiatrist
Some people benefit from both. If our psychologists feel that medication could help, they will let you know and refer you to a psychiatrist. In Trivandrum, IMHANS and the Medical College Hospital both have psychiatric departments. For inpatient care or psychiatric emergencies, see the hospital listings below.
