Specialist psychiatric diagnostics

In the diagnosis of psychiatric illnesses, the specialist psychiatric examination is a central element that should be carried out first and foremost. This should take into account the broad spectrum of potential triggers so that an optimal therapy concept can then be designed efficiently. The expertise of colleagues from other professional groups, such as psychologists, can then be very valuable as part of the tailor-made diagnosis and therapy we aim to provide.

While modern and very well-tolerated drug treatment is the so-called basic therapy for most psychiatric illnesses, which can be effectively supplemented by non-psychopharmacotherapeutic strategies such as psychotherapy on an individual basis, the latter can also be used alone as part of monotherapy in mild cases. In this case, regular specialist psychiatric evaluation of the response to therapy is of particular importance in order to be able to optimize therapy in good time if necessary.
