Dr. Tanvi Kohli uses a biopsychosocial approach, providing psychoeducation and supportive therapy. Dr. Kohli considers the physician-patient relationship a team effort and collaborates with patients. Dr. Kohli is committed to providing quality care that is evidence-based and centered around her patients. She aims to provide treatment that allows her patients to live a happier, well-functioning life. During her psychiatry rotation in medical school, Dr. Kohli enjoyed listening to patients and asking them questions to further understand and analyze their situations. The importance of a healthy mind drew her to psychiatry: how the mind controls everything: one's body, emotions, and, most importantly, one's ability to function. This taught Dr. Kohli the importance and necessity of psychiatric care, especially since mental health is often neglected. She values the importance of different experiences, including traveling to new places, trying new foods, and spending time with family and friends.
