About Dr. Poulami Basu

I’m Dr. Poulami Basu, a Consultant Psychiatrist at Anvaya Healthcare, Dwarka. I have completed my MBBS and MD in Psychiatry, along with senior residency training in Delhi. My clinical work focuses on helping people navigate concerns such as substance use disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, and ADHD across different age groups. A significant part of my work has involved de-addiction care, relapse prevention, and supporting individuals through the process of recovery. I have also been involved in managing geriatric and forensic psychiatric cases, along with outpatient, inpatient, rehabilitation, and therapeutic care. Beyond clinical treatment, I’m passionate about promoting mental wellness in everyday life, particularly in the workplace. I believe that managing stress sustainably and developing healthier ways of coping can play an important role in long-term mental wellbeing. My approach to treatment is holistic, collaborative, and empathetic. I believe that mental healthcare works best when medication, therapy, lifestyle changes, and the individual’s own goals are considered together rather than in isolation. Most importantly, I believe mental healthcare should be accessible, understandable, and free from stigma. Seeking help for mental health should feel as natural as seeking treatment for any other health concern. At Anvaya Healthcare, I look forward to working with individuals and families to make that kind of mental healthcare more approachable and accessible.
