The MHT Lead-In
2019 was a pivotal year for us in various aspects. We came across a research by the World Health Organization that came with the statistics that one life is lost to suicide every 40 seconds in this world. These appalling statistics show the despairing state of affairs. It was here that we realized that, being active members of the mental health community, we have to do something about this.
After a lot of research on a personal level and conversing with our peers in the field, we came to the hypothesis that ‘lack of knowledge’ is one of the reasons that might be adding to these increasing statistics. Stemming from a community where mental health is not a priority, one simply does not have enough resources to access the help available. Hence we both came up with an idea to collect research-based tools and present them to the masses, all available at one place. Right from the Psychologists, Psychiatrists, De-Addiction Centres, Child Development Centres available in one’s area, to the self-help tools available online, the books that one can refer to as well as the products available on Amazon India, our aim is to create a zone that is “A to Z, everything about mental health”.
Mental Health Today is a website devoted to providing awareness about mental health as well as directing the viewers to different treatment interventions available for different mental health issues. A directory of experts who provide mental health services in India is also an integral part of the website.
The website aims at disseminating latest updates and interventions in mental health through blogs, podcasts and webinars produced by graduates and experts of the field. Along with awareness, our goal is to constantly improve the service for potential clients, so they can be shown–as simply as possible–the alternatives open to them in their time of need.
There are real people working here and we’re always eager to help. We are constantly seeking to support professionals as well as the client to bridge the gap between mental health illness and it’s treatment.

Seema Jaiswal
After pursuing psychology and mental health studies from prestigious college, St. Xavier’s College, Mumbai and King’s College London, she yearned to spread awareness about various mental health issues.
Years of research and clinical experience in the field of mental health has enabled her to create this extensive platform, Mental Health Today a.k.a MHT, and disseminate useful information for the well being of society suffering from various mental health issues.
Completing her Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Mumbai and practising as a certificated RECBT psychologist, made her question the underreporting of mental disorders in India.
The stigma involved in going to a therapist even among more educated in the community made her realise that mental health professionals have a long road ahead. Hence, Mental Health Today is a small initiative from our end to help this journey across the long road, a bearable one.
