Mental Well Clinic traces its roots to the establishment of ESE Wellness Center, a senior rehabilitation center renowned for its focus on mental well-being. At the time, we provided comprehensive care to elderly individuals experiencing depression, insomnia, stress, and anxiety—drawing on a holistic approach that integrates physical, mental, and cognitive health. This foundation of expertise was built by a team of specialists led by our co-founders: Ms. Chonanee Petanelaphalin, who holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health from the Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, and Ms. Thanradee Kongmanee, an expert in adult and geriatric mental health. Their combined experience and dedication continue to support the clinic’s strong capabilities in mental health care and recovery.

We therefore incorporated psychotherapy, psychological counselling, emotional support, and art therapy into our care program to promote healing, strengthen resilience, and enhance mental well-being. This integrated approach has received recognition from more than 30 families, who observed that “providing emotional care alongside physical rehabilitation led to noticeably faster improvements in their loved ones’ physical health.”

Following our initial work, we began caring for older adults experiencing depression, sleep disturbances, and various mental health issues. This led to the continuous development of our expertise in geriatric mental health therapy and emotional rehabilitation.

As we received increasingly positive feedback, we also recognized the growing mental health needs across all age groups within families. These included sleep problems, post-retirement stress, work-related pressure, anxiety, academic stress, depression, marital issues, adolescent concerns, and other psychological difficulties. Our team has since provided counselling and therapeutic support to individuals and families facing such challenges.

In addition, through the WorkWell Service workshop on workplace mental health conducted for leading organizations, we observed a wide range of unresolved mental health challenges among employees. Many lacked someone to talk to, experienced high levels of stress, struggled with self-understanding, and were uncertain about how to seek appropriate support or care for their mental well-being.

All of this led to the establishment of Mental Well Clinic, a mental health clinic founded on our shared expertise and commitment to emotional well-being. The clinic provides support for individuals of all ages, whether they are experiencing emotional discomfort, sleep disturbances, or other challenges. We offer services at the individual, group, and family levels, helping people rediscover happiness and restore daily functioning. Mental Well Clinic also serves as a safe and supportive environment for self-expression, self-discovery, and the freedom to be one’s truest self.
