My treatment method consists of a person-centered approach with evidenced-based medication management; and while working as a team, I provide a combination of psychiatric medication, supportive/talk therapy, and encourage lifestyle changes.
At the initial visit, we create a mutual therapeutic relationship and trust. I will actively listen to their concerns and empathize with the client.
