Tanvi Mallya, 34
Neuro-psychologist (MSc, UK)
AVAILABLE FOR: Providing at-home and virtual mental health care services to senior citizens, their families and caregivers all over the country
Charges: Rs 1,700 onwards
Tanvi Mallya's organisation, ElderCare, aims to bridge the gap when it comes to mental health support for the elderly. "As Indians," says Mallya, "we think of mental health support as luxury. Ageing brings with it its own unique challenges, such as loneliness, transitions, retirement, a diminishing sense of purpose and view of self. These concerns are often overlooked under the garb of physical complaints, lack of awareness and the stigma this generation attaches to mental health. We wanted to fill that gap," she says.
Eldercare's psychologists visit the elderly at their homes, supporting them through the changing landscape of their emotions, reaqcuainting them with activities and hobbies they can still enjoy and working on improving on their emotional well-being and brain health. "We also counsel their families and caregivers, familiarising them with the changing emotional needs of their older adults, psycho-educating them and supplying them with resources to this end," says Mallya.
