Tips to improve treatment of anxiety for practitioners
This video is for practitioners to improve our evaluation and treatment of patients that are dealing with anxiety. Dr. Chris Phillips, a trauma and head injury psychologist, gives us his perspective on 3 things we need to consider on our first visit with our patient and anxiety.
Have we considered our patient's world view and culture?
Are we looking to meet our patient's current and specific needs?
Are we considering data driven treatments?
Dr. Phillips shares that success as well as sustainable treatment outcomes are based on 4 pillars; biological, psychological, social and spiritual. When addressing the broad nature of who we are as people, looking at the physical and chemical aspects of anxiety to dealing with the existential and spiritual part of who we are, treatment success is better and will last.
We need to understand these foundations when addressing anxiety as a community of practitioners dedicated to helping our clients.
