About Us & The Founder
Healing begins with knowing
who holds the space
Meet the heart behind Soul Wellness — a practice built on compassion, clinical expertise, and a deep belief in every person's capacity to heal.
Our Story
An integrated vision
for whole-person healing
Soul Wellness was founded with a simple but powerful vision: that mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing are not separate things — they are one integrated whole. True healing happens when we care for the mind, the body, and the spirit together.
Located at NSHM Knowledge Campus in Kolkata, Soul Wellness brings together the evidence-based precision of clinical psychology, the gentle intelligence of homoeopathy, and the transformative power of yoga and pilates — all under one roof, offered by one dedicated practitioner who has walked the intersection of these disciplines for years.
This is a space where you are not a diagnosis. You are a person — with a story, a body, a set of experiences — and you deserve care that honours all of that.
"You don't have to be broken to deserve support. You just have to be human."— Dr. Shabtab Elahi, Founder, Soul Wellness
Meet the Founder
Dr. Shabtab Elahi
Psychologist | Homoeopath | Yoga & Pilates Coach
Dr. Shabtab Elahi is not your typical mental health practitioner. She is someone who has spent years standing at the crossroads of the mind and the body — asking a question that drives everything she does: what does it truly mean to be well?
With formal training and practice spanning clinical psychology, homoeopathy, yoga, and pilates, Dr. Elahi offers something rare — a genuinely integrated approach to health. She does not compartmentalise your anxiety as "just a mental issue" or your fatigue as "just physical." She sees you as a complete person, and she treats you that way.
Based in Kolkata and practising at The Soul Clinic at NSHM Knowledge Campus, Dr. Elahi works with women, children, adolescents, and couples — bringing warmth, clinical expertise, and deep attentiveness to every session. Her approach is grounded in evidence-based psychology while remaining flexible, human, and always person-centred.
What sets Dr. Elahi apart is not just her breadth of qualifications — it is the intentionality with which she uses them. A session with her might weave together cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness practices drawn from her yoga training, and gentle holistic support informed by homoeopathic principles. The result is care that meets you exactly where you are.

Our Mission
Why we do this work
To provide compassionate, culturally sensitive mental health and wellness support that empowers individuals, children, and families to heal, grow, and thrive — through an integrated approach that honours the whole person.
What We Stand For
Our Values
Safety First
Every person who walks through our door deserves complete emotional safety — free from judgment, pressure, or agenda. Creating that safety is our first responsibility.
Deep Empathy
We listen to understand, not to diagnose. We believe that feeling truly heard is itself a profound form of healing.
Empowerment
Our goal is not to create dependency — it is to help you build the tools, awareness, and resilience to thrive on your own terms.
Holistic Integration
Mind, body, and spirit are inseparable. Our care always reflects the whole person — never just the presenting problem.
Cultural Sensitivity
We understand that identity, family, and cultural context shape every person's experience. Our practice is always culturally aware and inclusive.
Confidentiality
What you share stays within these walls. Complete privacy is not just a policy at Soul Wellness — it is a promise.
Our Approach
Science, Heart, and the Wisdom of the Whole Body
Psychological Foundation
All counseling at Soul Wellness is grounded in evidence-based psychological practice. Dr. Elahi draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), integrative and supportive therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches — always adapting the method to the person, not the other way around. Psychological assessments are available to help build a full and accurate picture of your emotional and behavioural profile.
Holistic & Homoeopathic Care
Dr. Elahi's background in homoeopathy brings a unique dimension to her practice — one that considers the person's constitutional health, emotional patterns, and physical systems as deeply interconnected. Holistic support is offered alongside or in complement to psychological work, creating a more complete and sustainable path to wellbeing.
Yoga & Pilates as Therapy
Yoga and pilates at Soul Wellness are not fitness-oriented — they are therapeutically designed. Every session is trauma-informed, emotionally intentional, and tailored to the individual's needs. Whether it is prenatal yoga, yoga for anxiety, or pilates for body reconnection — movement becomes medicine when practised with awareness and compassion.
