A dysregulated Nervous System leads to a body that is stuck in the survival states, creating a negative feedback loop thereby leading to chronic illness . The muscles remain tense, inflammation rises, digestion shuts down, hormones and sleep function becomes poor. Therapies that do not take into consideration the body remains short of holistic healing.

Healing trauma & chronic stress requires a multi disciplinary and integrated approach, tailoring interventions at a cellular level to address the interconnectedness of these conditions.

We at Manushee understand the increased importance of recognising Trauma as one of the risk factors for developing chronic illnesses, potentially leading to developing or worsening of chronic conditions.

WHY I STARTED MANUSHEE

Welcome to Manushee and thank you for being here.


I am Sunanda Kolhe PhD (Clinical Psychology), trauma and attachment Informed therapist, trained Biology of Trauma Professional, Internal Family System and currently a student of the Somatic Experiencing Practioner program. I specialize and have spent the last decade in treating chronic stress and various forms of trauma in women across their reproductive life span.

As I worked with increasing number of women facing debilitating mental health concerns early on in their lives, I realized that every woman who has suffered psychological, emotional, mental and physiological stress has been waiting to tell a distinctive and unique narrative. Many times it took a lot of effort for them just to take time out for themselves and acknowledging that they needed help.



WHICH LED ME TO RESEARCH AND UNDERSTAND THAT

Trauma is one of the most stigmatized, underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed, and a deeply neglected condition. It has adverse effects an individual’s self-image, how they interact with the world and their relationships with others and themselves. Many a times due to cultural factors, women fail to notice that they have trauma. Most importantly, there is a significant gap between those in need of assistance and the trauma-informed therapists who are qualified to provide care in the right manner and sequence
Drawing from my own and others trauma and attachment healing journey and needs, I found myself extremely driven and passionate to create a space where the right kind of help and guidance is available easily, holistically and safely.
We are the first women-centric mental health platform, providing integrative care and safe, overall guidance and the correct sequence to help women address accumulated stress and trauma in their nervous systems and bodies and enabling them towards change, growth and transformation.


Hope this resonates and waiting to see you soon.
