Tanvi Agrawal is the Founder and CEO of Elfina Health, a Bengaluru-based mental health platform redefining how individuals access therapy in India. With over 13 years of experience in financial services and fintech, Tanvi made a deliberate pivot in 2024 to address one of India's most pressing yet underserved challenges: the quality and accessibility of mental healthcare. Elfina Health was built on the conviction that finding the right therapist should be as personalised and precise as any other high-stakes decision in life. The platform uses a proprietary 40+ variable matching algorithm to connect individuals with therapists uniquely suited to their needs, background, and goals — going far beyond generic search filters. Elfina has raised angel funding and continues to grow its network of vetted mental health professionals across India. Tanvi holds an MBA from the Indian School of Business (ISB), a B.Com (Hons) from Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC), University of Delhi, and is a qualified Chartered Accountant. Her analytical background in fintech, spanning financial modelling, digital lending, and growth strategy, gives her a distinctive lens through which she approaches healthcare: with rigour, data, and deep user empathy. A Bengaluru-based builder who understands both the venture ecosystem and the lived experience of burnout in high-pressure careers, Tanvi is a compelling voice on mental health at work, entrepreneurship from a non-traditional background, and what it takes to build in healthcare, a space where patience, precision, and genuine mission alignment matter more than speed.
