23.01.2022 What does a multidisciplinary approach to recovery mean? All too often in healthcare, the burden lies on the patient to engage professionals from different fields in order to secure a full and holistic recovery. This requires communication between various medical and specialist centres and doctors, and information often is not passed on or gets lost or miscommunicated in the process. This is how The Banyans Health and Wellness is different. ... Our programs bring together highly qualified, registered professionals from all disciplines to provide world-class, holistic recovery for those suffering from substance dependency, stress, mental health, PTSD, and eating disorders. Our team brings psychology, nutrition, medical treatment, exercise, and counselling together under the one roof. Today, Psychologist Nadine Missenden discusses her role in at The Banyans and how she works in with the rest of the team.
