What are psychiatric and medical support services?

Psychiatric services support individuals through a holistic model of health, where mental and physical health are collectively viewed rather than separately considered. It could be beneficial for assessment of experience or symptoms, level of function or questions about what treatments may be most beneficial. You can access both psychiatric while you are utilizing other services.
