OUR JOURNEY

The Story Behind Merit Plus

01
THE BEGINNING

The Foundation

Every meaningful journey begins with an idea. Merit Plus began with a simple yet powerful vision: to create a space where psychology could go beyond textbooks and become a source of genuine support, growth, and transformation with the guidance and expertise of our founder, Dr. Gauri Shankar Yadav.

02
MENTAL WELLNESS

Mental Wellness

As Merit Plus grew, so did our team. Lal Babu Yadav joined as a therapist, bringing his academic foundation in psychology and passion for emotional well-being. Rakshita Yadav became part of both our therapeutic and administrative journey, helping connect people, programs, and possibilities.

03
LEARNING & DEVELOPMENT

Special Education

We realized that mental wellness and learning are deeply connected. With Vinita Singh, an educator and psychology graduate with over 12 years of experience working with slow learners, Merit Plus expanded its focus towards individualized learning and specialized support for children.

04
KNOWLEDGE & ACADEMIA

Research Guidance

Our work expanded from helping individuals to helping those who create knowledge. Merit Plus began supporting students, scholars, and professors with research guidance—from developing ideas and methodologies to analysis, academic writing, and publication.

05
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

Schools & Colleges

Mental wellness shouldn't stop at the counselling room. Merit Plus began working with educational institutions through seminars, workshops, counselling sessions, awareness programs, and student-development initiatives, helping create healthier and more supportive learning environments.

06
WORKPLACE WELLNESS

Corporate Wellness

As conversations around workplace mental health grew, Merit Plus took its work into organizations. Through employee counselling, wellness seminars, stress-management programs, and interactive workshops, we began helping organizations build healthier and more resilient teams.

07
LEARNING BY DOING

Internships

We believe the future of psychology depends on professionals who understand both theory and practice. Our hybrid internship programs give students opportunities to learn, participate, explore research, and develop practical skills under professional guidance.

08
FAMILY WELLNESS

ParentReady & Growing Together

We expanded our vision to one of life's most important journeys—parenthood. Through ParentReady and Growing Together, Merit Plus supports expecting parents and families with psychological guidance, positive parenting strategies, child development awareness, and healthier parent-child relationships.

09
COMMUNITY & CONNECTION

Growing Together

Our journey continues to grow through meaningful connections with individuals, families, students, professionals, educational institutions, and organizations. Every interaction helps us expand the reach of psychological awareness, support, and learning.

10 — THE MERIT PLUS VISION

Today, Merit Plus brings together therapy, education, research, special learning support, institutional wellness, parenting guidance, and professional development. But our journey is far from over.
