Psychiatrist in Canberra Australia-Dr. Sunita D’Souza
Following the initial assessment, the psychiatrist will provide you with information, and will make a recommendation about what treatment might be most helpful to you. This depends on the type of mental health issues you are experiencing, their severity, your preferences where possible and what you already know works best for you. Medication may be recommended depending on your treatment plan.
Psychiatrists are the leaders of multidisciplinary health teams, formulating and determining management plans for patients and their families. They work with members of the team to deliver treatment to the patient, including education, lifestyle advice, medication, social, occupational and psychological therapies. Adult psychiatrists may also work in a range of other roles, including other sub specialties.

with mindfulness not only benefits children, it also supports parents’ and caregivers’ wellbeing, and the wellbeing of the family as a whole.
