Our Story
Pia Singh, the tenacious founder of MindSmith, unfolds a life narrative marked by trials and triumphs, revealing why mental health is not just a cause but a deeply personal mission.
From the turbulent landscapes of Kashmir to enduring personal traumas, Pia's journey reflects resilience in the face of adversity. Her pivotal turning point came with Dr. Satyen Sharma, a lifeline that ignited her commitment to redefine mental health care.
Navigating broken dreams, corporate challenges, and battles with depression, Pia's experience birthed a profound understanding: mental health is not just a professional pursuit; it's a deeply personal calling.
After a career reboot, a comprehensive exploration of business, and years shadowing Dr. Satyen, Pia co-founded MindSmith in 2022. For her, this venture is more than a mission; it's a relentless pursuit to revolutionize mental health care.

Throughout the process, we ensure clear communication and transparent practices, empowering you to take control of your mental health journey. We believe in a collaborative approach where you are an active participant in your healing process.
The New Age Reality
We live in a culture that is blind to betrayal and intolerant of emotional pain. In New Age Crowd where your attitude is considered the sole determinant of the impact an event has on you, it gets even worse.
No matter what happens to you, it is assumed that you have created your own reality. Not only have you chosen the event, no matter how horrible, for your personal growth. You also chose how you interpret what happened, as if there are no interpersonal facts, only interpretations.
The upshot of this perspective is that your suffering would vanish if only you adopted a more evolved perspective and stopped feeling aggrieved. This kind of advice feeds guilt and shame, inhibits grieving, encourages grandiosity and can drive you to be alone to shield your vulnerability.
