What is Psychiatry?
Psychiatry is a specialized branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of mental health conditions. It involves a variety of therapeutic approaches, including medication management, psychotherapy, and behavioural interventions, to help individuals cope with emotional, cognitive, and behavioural challenges. Psychiatrists work with people of all ages, from children to adults, to assess their mental health, provide treatment, and develop personalized care plans aimed at improving their emotional well-being and overall quality of life.
Psychiatric services address a wide range of conditions, including mood disorders, anxiety, psychotic disorders, ADHD, and more, providing individuals with the tools and support needed to manage and overcome mental health challenges.
