Anxiety & Worry Treatment in Gurugram— Dr. Prerna Kohli

Anxiety is the most common psychological condition in urban India— yet it remains one of the most underdiagnosed. Most people experiencing anxiety are told to "stop worrying" or "think positive." This is not helpful advice, and it is not treatment.

Dr. Prerna Kohli has worked with individuals experiencing anxiety and worry for over 30 years at her clinic in Gurugram. She provides structured, evidence-based treatment that addresses the root causes of anxiety— not just its symptoms.

Sessions are available in-clinic at DLF City Phase 3, Gurugram and online globally.

Signs You May Be Experiencing Anxiety

• Persistent, uncontrollable worry that is difficult to switch off
• Panic attacks— sudden intense fear with physical symptoms such as racing heart, shortness of breath, or dizziness
• Constant anticipation of worst-case outcomes
• Difficulty sleeping due to racing thoughts
• Physical tension— headaches, muscle tightness, digestive problems
• Avoidance of situations or people that trigger anxiety
• Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
• Irritability and restlessness

Dr. Kohli's Approach

Dr. Kohli uses an integrative approach to anxiety treatment— combining cognitive-behavioural techniques to challenge distorted thinking patterns, behavioural strategies to gradually reduce avoidance, and relaxation and mindfulness practices to regulate the nervous system. Treatment is always tailored to the individual's specific anxiety profile, triggers, and life circumstances. The goal is not merely symptom management but lasting change in how the mind responds to uncertainty and perceived threat.

Who This Is For

Dr. Kohli works with adults experiencing generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic disorder, health anxiety, performance anxiety, and situational anxiety related to major life events such as career changes, relationship breakdown, or relocation. She has particular experience with NRI clients experiencing anxiety in the context of isolation, cultural pressure, and the stress of managing family obligations from abroad.
