Maarga Mind Care, a leading mental health institution based in Bengaluru, has opened a new centre in Gurgaon, marking its entry into North India. This expansion strengthens its mission to make compassionate, evidence-based mental healthcare accessible across the country.
Addressing India’s Rising Mental Health Needs
Stress, anxiety, depression, and urban isolation have increased significantly in the post-pandemic world. Yet stigma and limited awareness continue to prevent many people from seeking help. Maarga Mind Care aims to change this narrative by offering science-backed, empathetic, and lifestyle-aligned care that encourages early intervention and reduces barriers to treatment.
Trusted Expertise and Comprehensive Services
Maarga holds the distinction of being the only private mental health provider empanelled with the U.S. Embassy (South India) and a trusted partner of the Canadian Embassy across India. With its signature C2R+ (Crisis to Recovery and beyond) model, the new Gurgaon centre will deliver end-to-end care covering adult, child, adolescent, and geriatric psychiatry. It will also offer de-addiction and rehabilitation programs, neuromodulation treatments such as TMS and Ketamine therapy, psychological counselling, and psychometric assessments. Inpatient services and 24/7 emergency retrievals will further support patients during crises.
To complement clinical care, the centre will offer expressive and holistic therapies. These include art, dance, music, drama, and yoga to support emotional well-being, lifestyle balance, and creative self-expression. Every patient receives dignified and empathetic care that nurtures both mind and heart.
Leadership Perspectives
Dr. Jothi Neeraja, Founder and Chairperson, emphasized that mental health deserves the same continuity and compassion as any other medical specialty. She noted that the Gurgaon centre advances Maarga’s vision of offering holistic, stigma-free care under one roof.
Dr. Girishchandra, Medical Director, highlighted Maarga’s integrative philosophy. He explained that recovery goes beyond symptom management and focuses on restoring joy and meaning.
Dr. Abhishek Hariharan Kandluri, Co-founder, stressed the urgency of addressing India’s widening mental health treatment gap. He announced plans to invest approximately INR 300 crores over the coming years to expand services. It also strengthen psychiatric infrastructure nationwide.
A Milestone Toward Pan-India Growth

Through innovation, empathy, and community engagement, Maarga Mind Care continues to set new benchmarks for mental wellness and psychiatric care in India.
