VirtualMy treatment methods
Psychoeducation
I use psychoeducation to empower patients by teaching them about their diagnoses, symptoms, and treatment options. By explaining diagnoses, treatment options, and coping strategies, I help patients feel more in control and less overwhelmed. This approach improves self-awareness, treatment adherence, and overall mental health outcomes.
Supportive
In supportive treatment, I focus on providing emotional support, validation, and practical guidance to help patients feel heard and empowered. I use active listening, encouragement, and goal-setting to build trust and motivate progress. I also offer practical advice for managing daily challenges and coping skills like mindfulness and relaxation techniques. This approach strengthens patients' emotional well-being and supports their treatment journey, fostering long-term recovery and growth.
