Adult Private Psychiatry
How Does It Work?
Private psychiatry starts with our highly-qualified and professional psychiatrists undertaking an initial consultation where assessments will be carried out looking at both your physical and mental health. Typical questions that you may be asked include; general questions about your life and questions directly related to the reason you booked an appointment.
After conducting the initial assessments, our psychiatrist(s) can then proceed to diagnose any particular conditions which is often the first step on the road to recovery. Once the diagnosis has been met, the psychiatrist can then proceed to treat mental and emotional disorders through the use of talking therapies, such as CBT and counseling, medications, or a combination of the two.
