As the director of Positive Learnings Space, De-addiction and Psychiatric Centre in Pune, Maharashtra, she has dedicated over 15 years to understanding and treating mental disorders. With expertise in both Western psychology and Eastern mind traditions, Salva believes that true healing comes from a balanced approach—combining modern psychiatric medicine with India's rich heritage of mindfulness and holistic wellness.

Under her leadership, Positive Learnings Space has collaborated with numerous NGOs, working tirelessly to spread awareness and build a strong support system for those battling addiction and mental health issues. The centre is staffed with psychiatrists, doctors, and professional medical personnel, ensuring comprehensive and compassionate care for every individual who walks through its doors.

Beyond her professional role, Salva is deeply committed to the power of charity and selflessness. She believes that mental well-being is nurtured through compassion, and that by shifting our focus from ourselves to helping others, we can achieve a healthier state of mind. With an insatiable passion for learning and evolving in her field, Salva Kazi continues to break barriers, making quality mental healthcare accessible to all—one step, one life, and one act of kindness at a time.
