Our Treatment Approach
A balanced plan tailored to your needs — combining medical, psychological, and lifestyle care.
Medication
Modern antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs, atypicals) are safe, non-addictive, and prescribed in the lowest effective dose. Most patients begin to feel meaningful improvement within 3–6 weeks. Dr. Ahir personally monitors response and side-effects so the plan stays comfortable for you.
Therapy & Counselling
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), supportive counselling, and Interpersonal Therapy help you reshape negative thought patterns, rebuild routine, and process difficult emotions. Sessions are confidential and available in English, Hindi, or Gujarati.
Lifestyle Support
Sleep regulation, structured daily routine, gentle exercise, sunlight exposure, balanced nutrition, and family psychoeducation form the foundation of long-lasting recovery. We teach simple, sustainable habits — not unrealistic advice.
