Philosophy of Care
I adopt a comprehensive approach to assessment, considering not only the presenting symptoms but also the broader context of an individual's life. This encompasses understanding their developmental history, family dynamics, cultural background, and any potential traumatic experiences. This holistic perspective allows me to formulate accurate diagnoses and treatment strategies.
For children, I acknowledge the importance of developmental milestones and the unique challenges they face as they grow and learn. My interventions are designed to support healthy cognitive, emotional, and social development.
