What conditions does the Psychiatry department treat?

The Psychiatry team assesses and treats a wide range of mental health problems, including stress, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, sleep disorders, addiction, behavioral and emotional difficulties, neurodevelopmental disorders (such as autism spectrum disorder and ADHD), learning difficulties, psychosis, and schizophrenia.

What happens during a first psychiatry consultation?

At the first visit, the doctor will ask about your symptoms, medical and family history, daily life, and any previous treatment, and may use psychological questionnaires if needed; this information is used to make a diagnosis and discuss a suitable treatment plan with you and, when appropriate, your family.

How are mental health conditions treated?

Treatment usually combines talking therapies (such as counselling or psychotherapy), lifestyle and stress‑management advice, and medication when indicated, with the aim of reducing symptoms, improving daily functioning, and preventing relapse.

Is treatment confidential?

Yes, all information shared with the mental health team is kept confidential and is only discussed with others (for example family members or other doctors) with your consent, except in rare situations where safety is at serious risk.

Can children and teenagers also see a psychiatrist?

Yes. Child and adolescent mental health is an important part of our service, and psychiatrists can assess issues such as developmental delay, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, learning difficulties, school refusal, anxiety, mood changes, behavioural problems, and sleep or eating disturbances. During the assessment process, parents or primary caregivers are encouraged to participate, as their observations and cooperation are essential to help the team understand the child’s difficulties and provide the most appropriate support.

Will I have to take medication long term?

Not everyone needs medication, and for those who do, the type and duration depend on the diagnosis, severity, and how well you respond; the doctor will explain the benefits, possible side effects, and review treatment regularly with you.

How can families support a loved one with a mental health problem?

Families can help by listening without judgement, encouraging treatment and follow‑up, supporting healthy routines (sleep, nutrition, activity), and learning about the condition so they can recognise early warning signs and respond calmly.
