Campus mental health, built to scale
RCI-registered clinical psychologists and Cittaa's voice-first technology for every student, with two ways to get there.
The reality on campus
Fewer than 1 in 10 students who need support ever access it. Stigma, cost and a shortage of counsellors keep campus wellness cells underused.
33.6%
of Indian college students report moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms
23.2%
report clinically significant anxiety symptoms
18.8%
have had lifetime suicidal thoughts
70–92%
treatment gap nationally, most students never reach care

Why universities need a different model
01
One counsellor for thousands
Most universities run a single wellness cell for 5,000 to 30,000 students, and queues stretch for weeks.
02
Walk-in counselling carries stigma
Students are far more comfortable speaking privately, on their own time.
03
Crises do not wait for office hours
Distress peaks around exams, hostel life and placements, often at night and at weekends.
04
Leadership has no early signal
Without campus-wide screening, the first sign of a problem is often a crisis.
Two ways to bring us to campus
Choose the model that fits your student population, counselling capacity and budget cycle, or evolve from one to the other.
