Frequently asked questions

How long will it take for me to feel better?
The response time to treatment varies considerably among individuals and depends on the complexity of your case. My aim is to support you at every stage and adjust the plan to progressively seek your well-being.
Does treatment always involve medication?
Medication is an important tool in psychiatry and may be part of your plan if I deem it necessary and we discuss it together. We will always seek precision pharmacology and combine it with other strategies such as psychoeducation and psychotherapy, if appropriate.
What is the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist?
As a psychiatrist, I am a medical doctor specializing in mental health, which allows me to diagnose, treat, and prescribe medication if necessary. A psychologist, on the other hand, focuses on psychotherapy and intervention techniques without medical prescription. Both roles can complement each other in your treatment.
Are there side effects with medication?
Some medications may have side effects, which I will explain in detail before starting any treatment. We will closely observe your response to seek a balance between the therapeutic benefit and minimizing any discomfort.
What if I've tried treatments before and they didn't work?
I understand your concern. In my practice, we will conduct a complete diagnostic re-evaluation to understand what might have happened and design a new approach, seeking a more effective plan tailored to your clinical history and current needs.
How can I manage the cost of treatment?
The cost of consultations and treatment is an investment in your health. I invite you to schedule an appointment to evaluate your case and allow me to explain the available options in more detail. My team can guide you through the process.
