Darren's treatment philosophy is simple: first, listening to my patients to understand their perspective and goals, and second leaning into the power of of psychoeducation which allows my patients to understand their diagnosis and make informed decisions about their care. This collaborative and informed approached helps empower my patients to feel the support and confidence they need to find healing.
