How are behavioral disorders diagnosed?

Dr. Omojola emphasizes a holistic treatment approach.

Behavior has many individual facets, and a variety of factors may contribute to mental health, so Dr. Omojola starts by delving into each patient’s life and history through a psychiatric evaluation.

A psychiatric evaluation is a fact-finding mission, with the goal of finding the most effective possible treatment approach. Psychiatric evaluation covers your general health, symptoms, history, personal concerns, environment, and many other areas so Dr. Omojola can diagnose and effectively treat your behavioral disorder.

She may also consult with family members to gain extra insight into behavior patterns and their effects.

Dr. Omojola performs judgment-free psychiatric evaluations with an empathetic approach. She considers you his partner in finding both problems and solutions that meet your needs.

What can I expect from behavioral disorder treatment?

Dr. Omojola wants you to understand your behavioral disorder and its roots so you can make the most effective changes. She spends time educating you about your diagnosis and treatment recommendations. She uses your feedback to help craft an ideal personalized treatment plan for your behavioral disorder.

Treatment of behavioral disorders usually includes medication management and psychotherapy. The blend of these therapies empowers you, helps you cultivate inner resilience, and guides you to make healthy changes in your behavior.
