Have you ever had the feeling that you are drowning in negativity? WE CAN HELP WITH treating mental illness. At Blake Psychological, we provide a secure and encouraging environment for you to start the healing process.
You may be reluctant to consider treatment alternatives, uncertain about where to begin, or fearing stigma. Our experts are here to support you while you pursue the best possible mental health care.
A complex interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors can contribute to mental disease. Here’s a deeper look at a few possible participants:
Genetics:
A family history of mental illness may indicate a hereditary risk. This may make you more vulnerable, but it doesn’t imply it’s inevitable. Think of DNA as a loaded rifle, with life events acting as the trigger.
Substance Abuse:
Using alcohol and drugs as a coping method or to exacerbate mental illness is known. Individuals may use drugs as a form of self-medication to dull emotional pain, but this frequently starts a vicious cycle that eventually makes mental health issues worse.
Medical Conditions:
Certain medical conditions can affect mental health, and vice versa. For example, thyroid imbalances can contribute to depression, and chronic pain can lead to anxiety.
THE GOOD NEWS IS, mental illness is curable. At Blake Psychological, we provide a range of evidence-based techniques to help you receive the individualized care you need. Typical choices include the following:
Psychoanalysis: Through talking therapy, you can create healthy coping skills and gain insight into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Cognitive behavioral therapy helps recognizing and altering harmful thought patterns that fuel emotional suffering.
Medication: Medication may occasionally be an effective strategy for treating mental health issues.
Lifestyle Modifications: Eating a balanced diet, getting regular exercise, and keeping a regular sleep schedule can all have a big impact on your mental health.
Blake Psychological is of the opinion that everyone should have access to high-quality mental health services. We support expanded mental health coverage in Canadian healthcare systems to guarantee accessibility and affordability.
