Comprehensive Psychiatric Services

Comprehensive Psychiatric Services

Inner Solutions™ Ltd. is widely known for our specialization in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Trauma treatments for the treatment of complex disorders with long term treatment protocols. We know that it is common for our clients and their families to struggle to access psychiatric services when needed. We are very pleased to be able to offer the addition of in-house psychiatric services to our clients currently receiving treatment.

Many of our clients present with complex symptoms and overlapping disorders leaving doubts and uncertainty about their diagnosis. We often say that ‘Diagnosis Drives Treatment’ and that identifying which symptoms are responsive to psychotherapy vs. which symptoms may be more driven by biology (and thus warrant the use of medication, etc.) is vital to the treatment outcome.

Sometimes, especially at the onset of treatment, medication may serve a purpose to help with symptoms blocking the use of psychotherapy and behavioral strategies. Then, with improvement, the problems fade and the question of using medication is reviewed with the goal of maintaining wellness.  This is when a comprehensive review of treatment approaches is very helpful.
