My View on the Nature of 'Disorders'
As a therapist, I perceive disorders as intricate reflections of a person's psychological, biological, and environmental background. They aren't mere labels but rather individualized expressions of personal challenges and journeys. I prioritize understanding each disorder's context and personal history to customize treatment and foster comprehensive healing.
