Bridging The Gap Between Mind And Medicine : Dr. Shefali Batra

October 25, 2023

It is indeed true that our lives can become chaotic at times and make us feel low. Various situations can impact our mental health and overall well-being, but it's crucial not to let these challenges overwhelm us. We should ensure that we feel mentally calm and seek help when needed. Speaking about the importance of mental health and well-being, Dr. Shefali Batra is an experienced psychiatrist who has been assisting people with their emotions and thoughts for a very long time. However, she goes beyond just prescribing medicine. 

Shefali Batra: Leading The Way In Psychiatry

Shefali Batra earned her degree in Psychiatry in India and a Leadership in Healthcare Certificate from UCLA, USA. She has over 20 years of experience in child and adolescent medicine, adult psychiatry, de-addiction, mental health startups, medical affairs, pharmaceuticals, clinical and behavioral research, and corporate and school training.

Her expertise in therapies, including CBT, ACT, REBT, and Mindfulness training, drives her to address psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, OCD, phobias, psychoses, mood disorders, and personality issues. She also works with lifestyle disorders like diabetes, addiction, stress, hypertension, strained relationships, work-life imbalance, and academic and behavioral problems. Also, Shefali's work has been featured in various media publications and on radio and television channels.

Empowering Minds With Mindframes

In 2004, Shefali initiated something significant called "MindFrames." She started it to support people in improving their emotional well-being. MindFrames serves as her dedicated platform, providing a safe space for individuals to discuss their feelings and receive valuable guidance. This platform has provided guidance to over 18,000 patients and clients, Indian naval employees, hundreds of corporations, the Mumbai Police Force, and many more. 


Shefali came up with MindFrames because she believes that just giving medicine is not enough to solve emotional problems. People need more time, care, and attention to feel better. She wants to bridge traditional medicine with contemporary mindfulness approaches to enhance people's well-being. Also, she offers counseling sessions for emotional support during challenging times, which you can schedule by contacting her at (+91) 9821646409 or emailing her at connect@mindframes.co.in
