This on-demand service is tailored to meet the unique needs of non-resident Indians (NRIs) and the South Asian community, offering mental health support in their native languages. With professionals fluent in over 22 languages, including Punjabi, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam, emroPsyc ensures that language barriers are minimized, making mental health care more inclusive and culturally appropriate for students, families, seniors, and couples.

Through emroPsyc, NRI students, immigrants, and families in Canada can now receive culturally competent mental health care whenever and wherever they need it. The platform’s integration of modern technology and expert care marks a significant step toward addressing the mental health challenges faced by the growing South Asian diaspora.

As the South Asian population continues to grow in North America, particularly in Canada where over a million Punjabi-speaking individuals reside, the need for accessible mental health care has become urgent. A significant portion of this community struggles with mental health issues, often with limited access to services that cater to their cultural and linguistic needs. emroPsyc directly addresses this gap by offering a platform where individuals can connect with trusted mental health professionals who understand their cultural context and speak their language.

“Our platform aims to provide timely, affordable, and high-quality mental health care to non-native English speakers living outside their home countries,” said Dr. Eva Szabo, Co-Founder and CEO of EMRO Doctors Inc. She emphasized that emroPsyc offers a lifeline to individuals in need of fast and reliable mental health support, regardless of their location.

The platform allows users to seamlessly book consultations with licensed professionals, including clinical psychologists, rehabilitation psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, and special educators. Users can filter their search based on their preferred language and specific mental health needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), couples therapy, or support for learning difficulties. With just a few clicks, individuals can access specialized care from a network of over 100 mental health professionals.

Dr. Vinay Singh, Co-Founder and COO of EMRO Doctors Inc., highlighted the cutting-edge features of emroPsyc, including secure video conferencing and advanced cognitive assessment tools developed by Orange Neurosciences. “These tools ensure a higher quality of care and provide reassurance that our clients can trust,” said Dr. Singh.
