Our approach

Psychiatry Support uses a collaborative, client-centred approach grounded in listening and partnership. Sessions combine evidence-based therapies tailored to each person's needs, with psychiatrists offering expertise in medication management, psychotherapy, and specialised techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The team prioritises creating a safe, trusting environment where clients feel heard and valued, working together to develop personalised strategies that empower individuals to navigate challenges. This applies across the lifespan, with particular focus on treating the whole person by integrating biological, psychological, and social factors for meaningful outcomes.

Working with families

Psychiatry Support requires a parent or guardian to be present during all adolescent appointments with psychiatrists (aged 6 years and above), ensuring families are directly involved in their child's care. The team's philosophy emphasises collaboration and partnership, prioritising listening to clients' and families' needs and concerns to foster an environment of trust and understanding. Dr Daniel Banos Illan specifically offers whole-family support, and the service values shared decision-making with families and healthcare providers to ensure care is personalised and impactful. While the website does not detail ongoing parent communication protocols, the emphasis on working alongside clients and their families suggests regular engagement throughout the treatment journey.
