Detailed Assessment: We conduct in-depth psychiatric assessments to diagnose mental health conditions.

During a general psychiatric evaluation, the clinician typically gathers comprehensive information through various methods, including:

1. Clinical Interview: The clinician conducts a structured or semi-structured interview to explore the patient's current symptoms, history of mental health issues, and any relevant psychosocial factors.

2. Medical History Review: Understanding the patient’s physical health, including past medical conditions, medications, and any substance use, is crucial for a holistic view.

3. Psychiatric History: This includes previous diagnoses, treatments, hospitalizations, and responses to medications or therapies.

4. Standardized Assessments: The clinician may use validated psychological tests or questionnaires to evaluate specific symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, or cognitive function. These tools help quantify the severity and impact of symptoms.

5. Collateral Information: Gathering information from family members or other healthcare providers can provide additional context and insights into the patient's functioning.

6. Mental Status Examination: The clinician assesses the patient's appearance, behavior, mood, thought processes, cognition, and insight during the evaluation.

Treatment Planning: Based on the evaluation, we create a customized treatment plan that addresses your unique needs and goals, integrating both therapeutic and medical approaches.
