Who is a psychiatrist?

Psychiatrists are Medical Doctors who have completed a degree in Medicine, followed by specialized residency training in Psychiatry. At BPS our psychiatrists are medical doctors trained to combine pharmacological treatment with psychotherapy and lifestyle interventions when appropriate

This extensive medical education allows them to understand the complex interplay between the body and mind, enabling comprehensive assessments and integrated interventions.

Our psychiatrists, in addition to their medical qualifications, have completed educational and training programs in psychotherapy. This dual expertise allows them not only to provide pharmacological interventions but also to integrate these with psychotherapy, allowing for a therapeutic approach that combines medication with psychological insight and interventions. This integrated method has been shown to offer greater efficacy across a range of psychiatric disorders compared to either treatment alone.

Also, this integrative approach enhances diagnostic accuracy, promotes continuity of care, and supports each patient in achieving meaningful and sustainable improvements in mental health and overall well-being.

We work closely with other members of the BPS Clinic multidisciplinary team – including psychologists, psychotherapists, family therapists, neurologists and pediatricians and GPs – to ensure a coordinated care plan.

The presence of other medical specialists within the team ensures comprehensive, multidisciplinary evaluations and allows for the development of cohesive treatment plans
