The issues facing individuals with a Psychiatric illness are as varied as the individuals themselves. A provider needs to be knowledgeable and experienced to provide the best care possible. That provider also needs excellent listening skills as well as empathy and understanding. That provider needs to work WITH the individual and not Tell the individual what they need. There needs to be a holistic approach to the issues facing the individual and not just medication use.
