Clinical Psychology

Mental health plays an equally pivotal role on par with physical well-being. It is not uncommon for many of us to get bogged down occasionally owing to stress, work pressure, etc. Sometimes, societal issues too can hamper the thought process, decision-making abilities, happiness, etc. It is no secret that mental well-being influences our physical health.
