My treatment methods

Supportive

Supportive therapy enables you to deal with everyday life stressors that can be more challenging when dealing with mental health issues, such as treatment-resistant depression. It is designed to help patients navigate through problems with empathy, compassion, and comfort. With supportive therapy, I provide a safe emotional outlet for my patients where they can express themselves and be themselves.

I've been reflecting on my experience with my prescriber. I wonder what I could’ve done better vs. what they should’ve handled differently. I wasn’t given clear guidance on tracking symptoms or what counted as serious. I tried to express concerns, but felt brushed off—once even mocked. I feel confused and frustrated. I want to learn what healthy accountability looks like so I can advocate for myself while feeling respected and safe.
