On February 10, 2026, Dhruti Charitable Trust had the privilege of conducting a milestone workshop, “Mind Check: Using Therapy to Build Resilience,” at the Rajalakshmi Institute of Technology (RIT) in Chennai.

The session, led by our Counselling Psychologist Ms. Srishakthi Venkataraman, was designed specifically for second-year students in the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning departments. With 300 students in attendance, the atmosphere was one of deep engagement and curiosity.

What We Covered:

Students explored practical tools for emotional regulation, stress management, and the science of neuroplasticity. The workshop utilized interactive tools like the “Wheel of Life” to help students visualize and balance their personal and academic well-being.

The Results:

The feedback from the RIT student body was overwhelming:

• High Engagement: 70% of participants rated the session as “very engaging”

• Increased Confidence: 95% of students reported feeling more confident or “somewhat” more confident in managing their mental health

• Future Readiness: Over 75% of students would definitely recommend this program to their peers

At Dhruti, we believe that mental health is a foundational skill for the innovators of tomorrow. We are grateful to the RIT management for their vision in integrating wellness into the technical curriculum.
