Meet founders

Dr. Rathi and

Dr. Laddha.

A place for all women to find quality, personalized care. That was the dream.

In their 15 combined years of experience, board-certified psychiatrists Dr. Shama Rathi and Dr. Sipra Laddha have treated children, adolescents, and adults through holistic, specialized care. But in 2020, the two saw how mental health challenges impacted women disproportionately. Women-first therapy was hard to come by. And expensive.

That’s why Dr. Rathi and Dr. Laddha built LunaJoy. A care community where women at any age, any stage can easily access bespoke mental health care from home. And thrive.

Getting started is simple.

“I had an excellent experience with LunaJoy. My therapist was caring and clearly knew what she was doing. Glad I stuck with her after seeing many clinicians, I wasn’t hopeful for the amazing results I’ve had.”

— Jessica M., LUNAJOY CLIENT
