About Us

Early intervention is crucial for one’s mental health. Countless people still misunderstand or dismiss issues related to mental health. Being mentally healthy is more than not having an illness or disorder. Being mentally healthy is a state where individuals are comfortable being themselves and around others. They are not pessimistic or nervous about their state or how others perceive them. They can function, manage their stresses, and contain their emotions appropriately. Mentally healthy individuals have insight into their abilities and weaknesses and work towards being well enough. They do not compare themselves to others and are certainly not critical of themselves and others. They do not feel that they have to talk about themselves constantly, respecting the strengths and weaknesses of others. Individuals with good mental health can still be sad, angry, and stressed, but they manage their negative states appropriately.

The reality is that countless children grow up in an insecure and unstable family environment. Many parents and adults are unaware of how their behaviour, actions, words and availability affect their children. Words said to children can hurt or make them angry. Parents need to be made aware of how they impact their children.

ANAK is a mental health centre for children, adolescents and adults. It provides individuals seeking assessment and help for conditions related to mental health.

Many adolescents are struggling and often welcome space to speak about their struggles. At the same time, parents can verbalise their struggles with their children and learn ways to connect and communicate better with them.

For adults, the centre will similarly provide adults struggling with their mood, relationships, and functioning and want an assessment and help. Many adults are struggling to manage themselves and are feeling lost. These adults want a safe place to verbalise their distress and figure out things for themselves. The centre will provide these individuals with an assessment and subsequent sessions, e.g., talking therapy.
