"I approach psychiatric treatments as a collaborative effort between myself and patients. This relationship involves people from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities. The initial intention for a client seeking treatment is an important part of this therapeutic relationship. The significance of treatment for them is very crucial at every stage of care. Many people experience anxiety and stigmatization when seeking psychiatric services. In my clinical practice, I ensure my patients are relaxed and feel safe"
