Psychoeducation

Psychoeducation is a fundamental part of psychotherapy, which is carried out in parallel right from the beginning. It provides the patient with an insight into their illness and helps them to make sense of their own situation.

As part of individual and group discussions, we provide patients with information about the causes and diagnosis of their illness and the treatment options available including the actions and side effects of medication. Our aim is to promote the understanding of the disease and support a self-responsible approach in dealing with it.

Information on the causes and effects of their own illness often has a positive effect on the treatment and reduces the risk of relapse.
