Founder and lead psychologist

Adhila P, Consultant Psychologist

Founder, Ila Mind Care · M.Sc. Psychology · Malayalam and English

Adhila founded Ila Mind Care so that families in Kerala, and Malayalis living far from home, can find skilled, warm support without travelling or waiting. She works with children, teenagers, parents, couples and adults, and believes care should be empathetic, evidence-informed and easy to reach.

Children and teensCouples and familiesAnxiety and emotional wellbeing
Most people wait too long because they think their problem isn't big enough. I want Ila to be the place you can come early, feel properly heard, and leave with something that helps at home that same week.
