Welcome to Jeeva Rakshai
Jeeva Rakshai is a centre for addiction and psychiatric care, established in Chennai in 2019 and led by an experienced Counselling Psychologist. Our 50-bedded facility provides comprehensive, confidential care for both male and female in-patients and out-patients, offering emergency intervention, acute psychiatric crisis management, and long-term stabilisation — all under 24/7 medical supervision with rapid-response care.
We specialise in treating all forms of substance and behavioural addiction, including alcohol, tobacco, nicotine, cannabis, cocaine, amphetamines, opioids and benzodiazepines, as well as mental health concerns and dual diagnosis conditions. Our approach is evidence-based, addressing the root causes of each individual's struggle through personalised treatment plans built around their unique psychological profile.
As the World Health Organisation highlights, addiction is a chronic, relapsing condition characterised by compulsive use, loss of control, and continued use despite harmful consequences. With nearly 1 in 7 people worldwide living with a mental disorder, accessible and effective care has never been more critical — yet stigma, discrimination, and lack of resources continue to leave millions without support. Jeeva Rakshai exists to bridge that gap.
Our multidisciplinary team — comprising Psychiatrists, a General Physician, Counselling Psychologists, Clinical Psychologists, Psychiatric Social Workers, Nurses, Coordinators, and Supportive Staff — works together to deliver dignified, state-of-the-art care.
We actively involve families throughout the treatment process and conduct awareness and educational programmes for family members of patients with substance use and mental health conditions. Our goal is not just recovery — it is the successful transition of each patient back into the community, equipped with the strengths and support they need to rebuild a healthier life.
About MoreOur Vision & Mission
The focus is on promoting positive mental health, improving resilience and positive coping. We envision a world where mental health care is accessible, stigma-free, and empowering for every individual.
Mental health refers to a person's emotional, psychological and social well-being. Physical health and mental health are closely associated and there is a need for comprehensive mental health set up. We are committed to providing holistic, dignified, and compassionate care that addresses the complete well-being of every individual.
