Dr Regéna R. de Lange Medical Doctor & Mental Health Practitioner MY APPROACH I have always been very interested in mental health and feel very strongly about differentiating between mental illness as a primary diagnosis and mental illness as a symptom due to another systemic problem. I really believe that individualized patient care and taking the time to understand the cause of a symptom, or set of symptoms, is extremely important. I follow an evidence-based, holistic treatment approach with specific focus on the following elements: • Psychotropic medication based on the latest research • Nutritional optimization, correction of deficiencies and addressing gut health • Stress Management • Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Therapy, Breathing Techniques etc • Exercise and Pilates • Other Preventive Measures
