Our Approach
At Bright Bay Psychiatry, we take an integrative approach to care. This includes examining all aspects of the patient's life and identifying the root cause of the patient's symptoms rather than just treating the symptoms with various medications. Medications are used as a tool in addition to addressing other aspects contributing to the patient's symptoms. To maintain this approach to care, we value spending adequate time with the patient to obtain as much information as possible, develop a therapeutic relationship, and provide thorough psychoeducation. Psychoeducation is an evidence-based intervention where the provider educates the patients with information related to their diagnosis, symptoms, psychological concepts, and treatment methods. This allows the patients to be well-informed regarding their care and encourages them to make decisions about their treatment goals. We value taking the time to get to know our patients and building a good rapport while being committed to empowering personal growth within our patients.
