Dr. Shyam Mithiya

I want to start with a sentence 'Dr. Shyam is an outstanding therapist.' I started visiting him since February along with my husband. I was going through stress, anxiety and also our marital life was taking a toll. So my husband also decided to see him. Dr. Shyam ensured, he spoke to us together as well us separately to understand our areas where we were struggling. He has been very approachable and is a good listener. He is not someone who will just give an advice on mental health or some medicines and let you go. He will try to understand where you are coming from, hear you out. And also constantly encourages to practice different concepts and ideas to live a better life and not just depend on medicines. Especially in a time like COVID, when the world has changed for all of us, my husband and I felt extremely lucky that we consulted him during this period. We had multiple episodes of arguments and fights in the past due to reasons like work pressure and also being 2 different personalities. But during this lockdown, we did not fight. We did have disagreements but we realised under Dr. Shyam's guidance we were being open to understand each other's situation and made peace with each other. It's such a big change in us. I have also been facing huge amount of stress and anxiety, which links back to my childhood and I figured out I have been going through depression after we met him. Dr. Shyam has given me minimal doses and has encouraged me to pick up a healthy lifestyle, like meditation, affirmations, practicing gratitude and told me nothing comes before our mental peace. Such a powerful message! It's been 4 months, and I am doing so much better now. There's a sense of calmness in me. I do not wake up in the morning with heaviness. He has really been a wonderful guide to help me and my husband get out of the stress and anxiety we were both going through. We both have been very open to our friends and social circle in saying - yes we are seeing a therapist, and why shouldn't we? It's one life and we all have the right to live it superbly! We don't have to be answerable to anyone to nurture our mental health. I totally urge people to come forward if you feel there's something you are grappling with and your mental peace is being threatened.. Don't compromise on your mental health, especially when we have such a skilled and wonderful therapist in Mumbai, the right person to go to Dr. Shyam Mithiya. Thank you so much, Doctor. :)

I had a very positive experience with doc Shyam. He was extremely friendly, patient, and approachable, which made it easy to discuss my concerns openly. He listened carefully without rushing and explained my condition in a way that was easy to understand. What I appreciated most was that he not only discussed treatment options but also provided practical remedies and strategies that I could use to manage my OCD. His guidance was reassuring, thoughtful, and gave me confidence in the recovery process. The doctor's compassionate attitude, professionalism, and genuine concern for his patients truly stand out. I am grateful for the support and guidance I received and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking help for OCD or mental health concerns.

Doctor Shyam highly recommended. 10 stars for his treatment, consulting, judgement, problem solving ability , confidence. In my first visit itself, he told me the date by which I will get completely fine and my problem will be solved and it did. He proved himself. My last visit was just one date earlier that he had told me with I even more commendable becos he cured my problem before the promised date. Hats off to his confidence and obviously such confidence only comes with expertise and experience. Without a doubt he is the best psychiatrist in Mumbai. I have met so many of them and spent hell lot of money but nothing worked in my case. I am also really thankful to doctor Shyam coz he literally made and saved my life. As a token of thanks, we offered him a car but he refused to keep it. Such humbleness and maturity at this age is remarkable. He just asked us to give our blessings to him. Our blessings will always remind with you doctor Shyam. You are truly an idol for us. Will always look up to you. Great great going. Superb simply superb

Dr. Shyam is a brilliant and genuine therapist who truly cares for his patients, helps them grow and has an end target of eliminating medication and dependency on his sessions. My husband and I began seeing him 3 months back for marital and sexual problems and instead we both got diagnosed with depression which was the root cause of the problem as doctor explained. Our's is quite a complicated case. We had lost all hope and decided to give therapy a shot before taking a call on our marriage. So glad we met Dr. Shyam who has handled us really well and literally saved our marriage. Both husband and I are very comfortable around him due to his warm, friendly nature. I am an introvert and secretive in nature but I was able to open up to doctor to quite an extent. Husband and I both can see the improvement in ourselves after meeting doctor, both individually as well as a couple. We actually enjoy meeting him as it's like meeting one of our pals. Dr. Shyam is very prompt to respond on email in times of distress, but he makes sure you do not get dependent on him. He slowly reduces the frequency of consults and also the medicines. I was very skeptical initially about taking medication, but I kept faith in him and he kept my trust by slowly reducing the meds as promised. I hope to be off medicines very soon and although my husband may take longer, I have 100% faith that both of us will recover fully under doctor's guidance. Thank you doc for everything. God bless you. - S & N

I want to express my disappointment with the recent consultation for my mother. After paying a substantial amount for the consultation, the amount is huge for us, we experienced an unacceptably long wait time for Video Consultation ,inspite of taking prior video consultation appointment,with little to no communication from your side. It gave us the impression that my mother's care was not being taken seriously, and we felt disregarded throughout the process.After the consultation, I had to request the prescription multiple times, which was frustrating ** * ** Moreover, despite being on your medication for over two years, we have not seen any significant improvement in my mother's health* ** ** treat every patient with the care and respect regardless of the situation. ** ** This was our last consultation.

I am fortunate and so grateful that i got to know about Dr Shyam sir. I was under his treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. I still remember the first day of treatment, he patiently listened to what i had to say, helped me clear every knots and thoughts that used to disturb me to a great extent. Throughout my journey Dr Shyam sir was the one who actually understood exactly what i was going through. Visiting him relieved half the stress.From the very first day i knew i was going to be fine and i am in great hands .He truly happen to be a light to my darkness and i mean this sincerely. Before taking the treatment i felt what if i dont come out of it, what if i never heal But as and when my treatment proceeded I believed more in the path of healing .A little information about the medication that i was put on were Voxitin and Sanzi. I was started with low dose and trust me these medications are super safe with very little side effects .In my case there were no side. effects.I happen to see changes in me as when time passed getting more healed, more normal, more like the person who i was before. Throughout my treatment he has been very motivating. Super thankful !! And yes mental health is important as important as the physical health. It’s important that each one of us gives priority to it and not hesitate to go to the doctor when it comes to mental illness. Lets normalise this journey of Mental illness —Mental wellness. I will be glad if through my review you decide to visit Dr Shyam, most experienced, passionate psychiatrist in Mumbai.
