Shristi Kafle in Republica raises a fair point about the sorry state of mental health condition in Nepal. She has nudged the government to be more serious about mental health with the sad depiction of budget slackened private institutions. Please do read her article in the link down below to get the general idea of mental health condition in Nepal

(P.S. She has regarded psychiatrists as only proffesssionals for the treatment of mental illness which we in psychbigyaan have a reservation about it. Other proffessionals such as counselors , clinical psychologists , neurologists etc and semi proffessionals such as social workers, primary health givers etc shud be considered if to bring well rounded mental health treatment)
