Outcomes & research

How we measure care outcomes.

We use standardised clinical scales to track changes in symptoms and quality of life, and we publish findings from our research.

92.5%

of clients show significant clinical improvement

From our internal outcomes data, tracked with standardised clinical scales.

We track outcomes with standardised tools used in research, including the PHQ-9 for depression, GAD-7 for anxiety, and DASS-21. This helps us assess changes in symptoms and quality of life alongside each client's experience of care. We also submit our research for peer review.

How we know it's working

How we know it's working.

Standardised scales, not vibes

Every client's progress is tracked with validated clinical measures, repeated over time, so improvement is something we can see and show, not just hope for.

Real clients, real settings

Our published studies are run on people we actually treat, in everyday clinical practice across India, not in a controlled lab that looks nothing like real life.

Open to scrutiny

We submit our work to peer-reviewed journals, where other clinicians and researchers can check the methods and the numbers. Four are published.

Published research

A note on honesty

Research is never the whole story, and no single number describes any one person's experience. Studies have limits, samples are specific, and recovery isn't linear. We share these because measuring and publishing keeps us accountable, not because they're a guarantee. What they do show is that this care works for real people in India, often enough that we publish it.

Whenever you're ready, however you'd like.

Two ways to start.
