Brief Answer:
Psychiatrist
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for your query.
She needs to be seen by a psychiatrist. He will do mental status examination and will decide the problem and the treatment.
Taking her to temples and getting help from local priest may help her get rid of the issue. Getting some religious ritual like a small yagya may also help. Since in some case reports, it was seen that such an experiment helps the patient psychologically.
Hope it helps.
