Dr. Simon Thayil was born and raised in a Christian family in Kerala. At the young age of 17, he dedicated his life to serving God through compassionate service to humanity—especially the poor, marginalized, and those suffering silently in their day-to-day lives.
His journey into counselling began when he realized that families, more than any other segment of society, were under immense pressure and emotional strain. Over the years, Dr. Thayil has become known for his deep spiritual insight and ability to discern the root causes of family conflicts.
Beyond his academic credentials and professional experience, he is widely recognized for his God-given gift in bringing reconciliation, healing, and transformation to even the most broken families.
He specializes in premarital counselling, marital counselling, divorce prevention, and family restoration. Many families—regardless of the complexity of their challenges—have experienced complete healing and renewed joy through his guidance.
A Legacy of Healing Families
Since beginning his family counselling ministry in 1995 (and full-time since 2007), Dr. Thayil has helped hundreds of couples and families across India and abroad rebuild their lives. His work has touched people from various linguistic, cultural, and religious backgrounds—including Hindu, Christian, Muslim, and Buddhist families.
He has counselled families in many Indian states, including Kerala, Tamil Nadu. Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Maharashtra, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat. His international counselling ministry has taken him to countries such as the UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, USA and Canada.
Our Commitment
At the heart of Dr. Thayil’s mission is a deep commitment to serve all families, irrespective of religion, caste, language, education, or economic status. Every individual is valued with respect, dignity, and unconditional support.
We believe in healing families based on human worth, not gender or social labels. Each case is approached with prayer, professionalism, and a passion to restore love and unity in homes
