    Dr. Simran Doria completed her MBBS and MD in Psychiatry from Lady Hardinge Medical College (LHMC), New Delhi, one of India's oldest and most respected medical institutions. She went on to complete her Senior Residency at the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences (IHBAS), Delhi, a national centre of excellence in neuropsychiatry, where she trained across the full spectrum of mental health conditions, from common concerns like anxiety and depression to complex disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and dementia.

    With over six years of clinical experience, she provides compassionate, evidence-based treatment for anxiety, depression, stress, OCD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, ADHD, panic attacks, sleep issues, headaches and migraine, addiction and relationship concerns. Her work also extends to psychosexual problems, workplace stress, emotional burnout and personality-related difficulties, areas where stigma often prevents people from seeking help.

    At MindNest Neuropsychiatry Clinic, she works with children, adolescents and adults, offering a safe, non-judgemental and personalised approach focused on emotional wellbeing, recovery, stability and improved quality of life. Care is collaborative, diagnosis is explained, treatment options are discussed, and plans are built around each person's goals, values and circumstances. Online consultations are available across India.

    Beyond the clinic, Dr. Simran Doria contributes to peer-reviewed psychiatric research and shares mental-health education on her Instagram and YouTube channels, working to reduce stigma and make psychiatric care more accessible to families across India.
