Our Purpose
Sanity should not be a luxury.
It is a necessity.
Mental health in India
26% people in India indicated a fear of those who live with MH conditions/illnesses (World Economic Forum, 2018)
7% Indians suffer from some mental disorder and predicts that number expected to rise to 20 per cent. (WHO, 2020)
80% of those suffering from mental disorders did not receive treatment for over a year as per The National Mental Health Survey (NMHS), 2015-16
Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion."

Qureist is a new way of finding healing and wellness at the intersection of holistic care and evidence-based science. We are a collection of psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists, mental wellness professionals, doctors, community organisers and social workers who have come together to create a social experiment in cure through care.
Qureist wants to help reimagine how we deal with our collective wellbeing. We want to stop the unnecessary differentiation between mental and physical wellbeing by providing integrated solutions that use an in-depth approach to experiencing and managing our sense of self, sanity and stability. If you are dealing with anxiety and irritable bowel syndrome at the same time, is it possible they are linked? We enable our clients to understand the connections between mental and physical wellness in order to facilitate a more customised recovery, treatment and healing path.
