My approach to therapy

I have a holistic approach and endorse a shared decision-making model, often integrating both psychopharmacology and brief psychotherapy modalities in treatment.

Helen will consider your emotional and psychological issues and work with you in decision-making. You will be involved in formulating the best treatment plan for you and given a chance to review any concerns or questions that you may have at each visit.
