I believe effective treatment in psychiatry requires collaboration between the patient, psychiatrist, therapist, nursing staff, care coordinators and the patient’s family when possible. This communication allows for safer and more effective treatment. When treating children and adolescents in particular, I have found patients who feel a stronger sense of self-efficacy with regard to their treatment often experience faster and more sustainable improvements in their symptoms. It is my hope that every patient we see feels they have a voice in their care and sees their treatment team as supportive and invested in the patient’s recovery.
