About Mente Calma

Rooted in Compassion. Driven by Evidence.

We are a specialist mental health practice dedicated to providing culturally sensitive, evidence-based care for women, families and communities. Video consultations are available to clients wherever they are.

Our Story

Mente Calma was founded by Dr. Adetutu Kunuji, a consultant psychiatrist with over a decade of experience working in NHS mental health services and private practice. Having witnessed first-hand the barriers that prevent many people, particularly women and communities of colour, from accessing quality mental healthcare, she set out to build something different.

The name Mente Calma means 'calm mind', and that is exactly what we strive to help every client achieve. We combine the rigour of evidence-based psychiatry with warmth, cultural humility, and a deep respect for each person's unique journey.

Today, Mente Calma serves clients wherever they are, offering psychiatric consultations, therapy, corporate wellness programmes, and community mental health initiatives through the Mente Calma Healthcare Foundation. Video consultations make specialist care accessible to all.
