Free Mental
Health Care
1 in 3 women in Karachi's underserved communities suffers in silence. ZMT provides clinical-grade, evidence-based psychological support for those who need it most.
Contextual Analysis
Millions Struggle.
Most Suffer Silently.
In Karachi's informal settlements, access to mental healthcare is nearly nonexistent. Economic stress, social stigma, and zero affordable services mean that millions of women carry invisible burdens every day.
Pakistan has one of the highest rates of depression and anxiety in South Asia — yet fewer than 2% of those affected ever receive professional help.
ZMT's Mental Health Program exists because no one should be denied care for something this treatable.
