An attentive audience

The PSK Women’s Forum last month held a talk on ‘Healthy Ageing’ presented by Ms. Shraddha Shah, a psychologist specializing in neuropsychology, and a consultant at leading hospitals and SNDT University in Mumbai.

A large number of members listened to the practical insights and advice that she offered while dealing with loved ones who may be experiencing confusion over dates and times, asking the same questions repeatedly, mixing up or forgetting words and other unexpected changes in mood or behaviour. She presented a number of different ways in which every individual could improve their mental well being and ensure that they may age gracefully.

Ms. Shah works with the Sir H. N. Reliance Foundation Hospital and Research Centre and Jaslok Hospital & Research Center. She also teaches Neurocognition to Masters students at SNDT University. She strives to discover new therapies, and her research has recently won the award at the Indian Conference of Neuro-Rehabilitation in 2016. She is a fellow of the Indian Association of Clinical Psychologists, Indian Federation of NeuroRehabilitation, World Federation of NeuroRehabilitation, Indian Epilepsy Society and Indian Epilepsy Association.
