In your
work as a physician, you encounter patients who have
emotional or psychosocial stressors that precipitate or are a
component of their physical illness.
You also have an increasingly busy schedule and outside agencies demanding closer scrutiny of diagnosis, treatment plans, psychotropic drug prescriptions, and patient outcomes.
Consequently, you have less time to adequately address the mental health needs of your patients.
Patients need help with the psychological consequences of physical illnesses. Adjusting to the necessary lifestyle change is also a psychological task.
Studies have shown that patients dealt with in a collaborative effort between physician and therapist are less problematic, more compliant with medications and interventions, and get better results. The services we provide can help.
