THERAPIES
Client-Centred Focus
Dr Lana Lubimoff uses a variety of gentle therapeutic techniques to guide her patients to healthier and happier lives. As patients confide their personal struggles, Dr Lubimoff customises a treatment plan that suits their specific medical needs, comfort level, and desired outcomes. By combining talk therapy with medication interventions, Dr Lubimoff treats patients using an integrated holistic medical model. Her therapy approach encompasses total body and mind health, involving psychiatric drug treatment (as appropriate) and stress reduction techniques.
Dr Lubimoff begins the doctor/patient relationship by conducting a thorough psychiatric assessment, medical history questionnaire, and personal interview, allowing her to understand her patients on a deeper level. This initial comprehensive session develops a personalised treatment plan, designed to help the patient attune with their emotions and become aware of how external situations affect their moods. Once a solid 'sense of self' foundation is achieved, Dr Lubimoff safely leads her patients along a path of greater self-awareness and transformational change. Dr Lubimoff's ability to use empathic listening skills and compassionate understanding make her mental health counselling services invaluable to patients who have been subjected to life’s tests and challenges.
If you are interested in gaining greater insight as to why you experience excessive negative emotions, Dr Lubimoff will help you explore and understand the harmful thought patterns and belief systems at the heart of your distress. She guides you through the complicated process of getting to know the emotional triggers and how to heal them. Dr Lubimoff's years of professional mental health experience will create a comfortable atmosphere, while her steady confidence will guide you to understand your inner-self and the subconscious thoughts and emotions that drive your behaviour.
Whether you are looking for a mental health professional to improve your overall quality of life, or you require a psychiatric medical specialist who can provide solutions for specific mental health issues, Dr Lubimoff has the experience and skills needed to help you. Her mental health expertise extends to individuals of all ages. She is also certified to provide medication therapy to children, adolescents, and adults.
Personal Empowerment
David Mandrake believes that most people deal with similar issues in life, but they tend to handle them in different ways. He found better ways of dealing with life's difficulties through personal experience and by learning from others. David became a counsellor to pass this valuable knowledge onto others to help them see they have the inner resources to overcome the challenges of their current circumstances and succeed in the face of adversity.
Since each person is unique and their circumstances are different, David uses a variety of techniques to assist his clients in finding a way through their difficulties and challenges. While counselling is a big part of what David does, It's useful to employ what he likes to think of as 'life management strategies'. These are practical approaches for dealing with life's tests and challenges.
There is no way of knowing or guaranteeing what kind of results a client will receive from counselling, since the outcomes depend on many factors — particularly, the nature of the client's issues. However, clients will typically start to see some positive progress in three to six months. Very often, a client will see significant improvement after about a year of counselling.
If you are struggling with a mental health crisis or you just need a listening ear, don’t let another day go by. Reach out for help today. Mind Medicine takes appointments for psychiatric assessments or psychotherapy, so please get in touch.
