Philosophy of Care
I emphasize patients' involvement in determining goals of treatment that are meaningful to them and the nature of their care. I also include holistic and traditional interventions based on the patient's desires. The care assessment is analyzed through the biopsychosocial model, meaning biological, psychological, and social factors are evaluated to determine appropriate treatment interventions and care. My psychotherapy interventions in primary care focus on health-related brief interventions utilizing the Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) Model.

I have never had anything other than very good experience in your clinic! I would highly recommend this care provider to anyone I know also, I would recommend them for the clinic for The way I was treated half polite everybody was! I was also pleased with any question. I asked them that they were able to answer it for me. The atmosphere was very good

The proposed solution didn't work so she has told me to call whenever I need help. So I will call her Monday (tomorrow) and see what might be done to best help my situation.
