Mental health has emerged as a critical concern in India, with millions facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, and stress. Despite increased awareness, stigma continues to deter many from seeking necessary support. In response to this pressing issue, Sukriti Dhingra, an RCI Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Member of the British Psychological Society, has introduced Mindsy—a pioneering platform aimed at transforming mental well-being in India.
Innovative Approach to Mental Health
Mindsy distinguishes itself through its AI-powered self-help modules. Upon using the app, individuals can take a free quiz designed to identify their specific therapy needs. This personalized approach provides actionable recommendations, effectively bridging the gap for those hesitant to seek professional help. The platform also connects users with a network of licensed psychologists, child psychologists, and speech therapists, ensuring culturally relevant and empathetic care tailored to India’s diverse population. Plans are underway to extend these services to the Indian diaspora abroad.
Endorsements and Recognition
Mindsy’s commitment to enhancing mental health care has garnered significant support. The platform has received endorsement from the Start-Up India Seed Fund and is incubated at the SGSITS Incubation Forum in Indore. These recognitions validate Mindsy’s vision of making professional mental health support accessible, affordable, and stigma-free for everyone.
Empowering Individuals and Organizations
Sukriti Dhingra emphasizes that the goal is not only to address mental health issues but also to normalize conversations around them. Mindsy aims to empower individuals from all walks of life—teenagers dealing with peer pressure, professionals overwhelmed by workplace stress, and parents navigating challenges with their children. By combining advanced technology with human expertise, Mindsy fosters self-awareness, facilitates expert guidance, and builds mental resilience. The platform has expanded into corporate and institutional partnerships, offering mental well-being services to employees and students. Collaborations with various organizations have led to mental health seminars tailored to distinct audiences, focusing on creating healthy environments and providing a multitude of benefits.
A Vision for the Future
As Mindsy gains momentum, it stands as a symbol of hope and transformation—a lifeline for individuals navigating the complexities of modern life. With the backing of Start-Up India and a passionate mission at its core, Mindsy is paving the way for a healthier, stigma-free future.
