Dr. Vidya practises child and family psychiatry at Mansa Clinic. She has specialised in this area of expertise from NIMHANS, Bangalore. She has developed a multi-disciplinary team for the assessment, diagnosis and intervention of various developmental disorders in children. Mansa Clinic team comprising a Child Psychologist, Physiotherapist with masters in Pediatric Neurology, behaviour therapist, Speech therapist and Special Educator are all passionate about their work.

We play , observe and develop a rapport with the child, and delve into the detailed developmental history with the parents. After developing a biopsychosocial construct on the basis of all of this, the team gets together to implement an individualised intervention plan focusing on the strengths of the child and the needs of the family.

Dr. Vidya conducts play therapy, psychotherapy and parental counselling depending on the diagnosis, and may give medication where warranted. The child psychiatry team also designs and conducts IEPs (Individualised Education programs) for children with ADHD, Learning Disability and Autism Spectrum disorder. Thus, the unit provides a holistic management solution for the child and family.
