Psychology & Psychotherapy adults, children and teenagers

Psychology is a non-medical branch of the profession that cares for the psychological well-being of the patient. The psychologist treats persons having psychological, relational, behavioral, and psychosomatic problems. He is a third party outside of the person’s daily life who does not judge either the person or their problem. His objective is to help the person who is suffering to talk about their problem and together to find a solution to lessen or eliminate the problem.

Our psychology department offers the following services:

  • Consultations for children,
