Is Whole Psychiatry right for you?

Who does well with the Whole Psychiatry approach?

The patients who flourish with the Whole Psychiatry approach want to achieve the best health they can have. They want to know what’s causing their problems and want a long-term sustainable solution to them, not a temporary symptom cure. They are educated and want to learn. They don’t want guesswork or unnecessary medication or side effects. They want a doctor who thinks, who listens, who cares.  And, they do what it takes to bring their vision of good health into being. They follow the treatment protocols, keep their appointments, and give accurate reports on their progress and challenges. They get well and have lives some thought were out of reach.

“Dr. Hedaya, I feel so blessed and thankful that you and your Whole Psychiatry approach have been introduced into my life and the lives of people who are experiencing the overwhelming interactions of mind, body, and spirit when dysfunction recurs. Like most everyone my previous experience with all types of physicians is that they only evaluate and treat what they consider to be my “primary complaint” and either ignore, or can’t handle all my other symptoms, life style factors, my environment, my values and goals… I realize this is extremely complex and daunting, but at last I’ve found someone who understands, listens, and takes and integrated approach. Many thanks.”
