This comprehensive approach will help me create a personalized treatment plan, including medication management, to ensure you receive the best care possible.

My treatment methods

Supportive

Supportive therapy aims to help you manage and cope with emotional challenges by providing encouragement and practical support. To give you the best care, we’ll combine supportive therapy with your medication management. While the medication helps manage your symptoms, supportive therapy will offer emotional support, practical coping strategies, and a space to discuss any challenges you're facing. Together, this approach addresses both the medication's effects and your overall well-being, helping you feel more supported and empowered.

Motivational Interviewing

In my practice, I use Motivational Interviewing to help you explore and resolve any ambivalence about making positive changes. This client-centered approach focuses on understanding your personal motivations and values, while supporting you in setting and achieving your goals. By engaging in open, non-judgmental conversations, we work together to enhance your commitment to change and empower you to take actionable steps towards your well-being.

Psychoeducation

In my practice, I use psychoeducation to provide you with essential information about your mental health condition and treatment options. This involves explaining the nature of your symptoms, how they affect your life, and the strategies available for managing them. By enhancing your understanding, psychoeducation empowers you to make informed decisions about your care and actively participate in your treatment plan, improving overall outcomes and self-management.
