About Dr. Bhooshan Shukla
Professional Qualifications –
MD (Psychiatry), DNB (Psychiatry), MRCPsych (London), Medical Diploma in Hypnosis (UK)
I am a Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist practicing in Pune, India.
I work as private practitioner and also work with various schools, family court, juvenile justice system, NGOs, Corporate Sector and film industry.
I believe that each person, despite their challenges in life, deserve to lead a satisfying life. Practical methods that use scientific principles discovered by modern psychology can help achieve exactly that.
With 23 years of clinical experience, I work with children, adolescents, and their families to help them deal with their personal and professional/school lives. From CEOs to sportspersons at state, national and international levels, professionals from all walks of life can be helped when the right technique is used. At the same time, it is my mission to create awareness that people with mental health issues – such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, autism, attention difficulties, academic issues, compulsive disorders – can have a meaningful life too.
I have also trained various professionals who need to address mental health issues in their line of work. These training sessions in India and the UK were for professionals such as doctors, trainee psychiatrists, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and even priests.
As a personal social responsibility, I work to prevent Child Sex Abuse. My work in this area was featured in Amir Khan’s TV show, Satyamev Jayate. (Details: nobadtouch.com)
Based on the need of the case, I use psychotherapies that will help clients overcome their difficulties in relationships or at school/work. The various therapies used range across:
- Play therapy and mutual story building therapy for children less than ten years of age
- Family therapy
- Parent coaching
- Cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT)
- Hypnosis for management of anxiety issues
- Motivational Interview Technique to enhance motivation and determination

Big problem with modern doctors!
When you approach a doctor with some problem, you are vulnerable. You will readily accept most of their suggestions for “intervention/treatments”. Sometimes your doctor will send you away without offering intervention/treatments. Because –1. It is normal occurrence. No disease. 2. Your misconceptions need correction not your body. 3. It is a self limiting condition. 4. …
