Psychiatric consultations are intended for adults seeking specialist advice regarding mental health concerns, symptoms, diagnosis, current treatment, medication or possible next steps in care.
A consultation may be useful if you would like to better understand your symptoms or an existing diagnosis, review current psychiatric treatment, discuss psychopharmacological options or obtain a specialist psychiatric opinion.
Online psychiatric consultations are advisory and do not replace a comprehensive in-person psychiatric assessment when such an assessment is clinically indicated. They are not intended as a substitute for emergency or acute psychiatric care.
Following the consultation, recommendations regarding further assessment, treatment or in-person psychiatric care may be provided when appropriate.
Important information:
These consultations are educational and advisory and are intended to complement, rather than replace, the care provided by your local psychiatrist or general practitioner.
Professional consultations are not suitable for emergency situations or urgent psychiatric care.
If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, please contact your local emergency services or seek immediate medical attention.
