The Psychiatry department deals with the medical assessment and treatment of difficulties involving mood, thoughts and behaviour.
Our specialists address mental health complaints that affect patients' quality of life, always respecting confidentiality.
The Psychiatric Assessment
At the first consultation, the patient's complaints, life history and general health are assessed in detail.
Where necessary, additional tests and assessments are used to support the diagnostic process.
When Should You Seek Help?
Some of the situations in which it may help to see a psychiatrist are:
- Low mood that has lasted a long time
- Intense anxiety and worry
- Marked changes in sleep patterns
- Difficulty concentrating
- Excessive stress and a feeling of burnout
Treatment Approaches
In psychiatry, treatment may involve medication, psychotherapy or a combination of the two, depending on the patient's condition.
The treatment plan is agreed between doctor and patient and reviewed at regular intervals.
