Mental health care that takes the whole person seriously
Our Psychiatry Department provides comprehensive, evidence-based diagnosis and treatment for the full range of mental health conditions, delivered with the same clinical rigour, discretion, and respect that we apply across every specialty in our institution. Mental health is not a separate dimension of wellbeing; it is inseparable from it.
What We Treat
Our psychiatrists manage depressive disorders, anxiety and panic disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, bipolar affective disorder, psychotic disorders including schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in adults, personality disorders, eating disorders, addiction and substance use disorders, sleep disorders with psychiatric components, and psychiatric manifestations of neurological and systemic disease.
Both acute presentations and long-term conditions requiring sustained management are within our scope.
Diagnostic Precision and Individual Formulation
Psychiatric diagnosis is not a label, it is a clinical formulation that captures the biological, psychological, and social dimensions of a person's experience.
Our psychiatrists conduct thorough, unhurried assessments that go beyond symptom checklists, exploring personal history, functional impact, and the broader context of each patient's life. This depth of understanding forms the foundation of effective treatment.
Treatment Approaches
Our department offers a comprehensive range of treatment modalities, including pharmacotherapy, individual psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), structured psychiatric follow-up, and, where indicated, inpatient or day programme admission.
Treatment plans are tailored to each patient's diagnosis, preferences, and life circumstances, and are reviewed regularly as the clinical picture evolves. We do not apply fixed protocols; we apply clinical judgement.
Why Güven?
Mental health care at its best is neither rushed nor formulaic.
With experienced psychiatrists, a full range of therapeutic options, and deep integration into our broader clinical network, our Psychiatry Department offers care that is both clinically rigorous and profoundly human treating the person, not only the diagnosis.
