QuietMind is founded by Dr. Chitrakshee, MD (Psychiatry). She is a psychiatrist trained in India’s top government medical institutions, where psychiatry is practiced with depth, volume, and diagnostic responsibility not curated case mixes. Her work focuses on helping high-functioning adults understand and regulate their mind, without over-medicalising or oversimplifying what they are experiencing.
Psychiatry practiced in government medical colleges is fundamentally different from psychiatry practiced in low-volume private settings.

She is deliberate about what she treats and equally deliberate about what she refuses to do.
QuietMind exists because too many high functioning people are told to cope, adapt, or push through without anyone explaining why their mind feels the way it does.
"She doesn't just give a prescription; she gives her heart. I've never felt so heard by a doctor in my entire life. She truly understands the soul."
"I was terrified of psychiatric meds. Dr. Chitrakshee patiently read my 'essay long' emails and explained everything until I felt safe. She’s a god sent."
“I didn’t realise how much mental effort I was using just to appear normal. Treatment made things feel naturally stable again.”
“She noticed details I hadn’t considered important, but that explained everything I had been experiencing.”
"Her aura is so positive that you start believing you’ll get better the moment you speak to her. She doesn't just treat; she heals."
"I miss my sessions with her because she feels more like a friend than a doctor. She made me love myself again, and I’ll forever be grateful."

QuietMind focuses on high functioning adults. Severe psychiatric conditions requiring inpatient care are referred appropriately to specialised facilities.
Government medical colleges provide exposure to high volume, unfiltered, complex psychiatric cases. This builds pattern recognition, diagnostic rigour, and treatment restraint that cannot be replicated in curated private practice settings.
"I met Dr. Chitrakshee during the worst phase of my life when I thought I was a burden to everyone. She was the ray of light that walked in."
