About Me

The most sensitive indicator of when it’s time to see a psychiatrist is when the distress that the individual is experiencing starts interfering with life. When our treatment is effective,E209 people are much freer in their physical movements. They can laugh, they can smile, they can interact with other people -- they enjoy life.
