Giovanni Oriolo

Psychiatrist - MSc - PhD

I have worked as a psychiatrist in Barcelona since 2010 and am passionate about the PSI world. 

 

Open, curious, critical with the reductionist approach to psychiatry, I can offer you my professionalism, dedication, experience and sensitivity to help you manage, resolve and/or overcome situations of discomfort and mental distress.  

 

This will all be implemented through a method of psychiatry with a broad perspective, based on meaning and respect.

WHAT DOES A PSYCHIATRIST DO?

(i.e., how can I help you?)

From an integrative and holistic perspective, my role is to be able to identify your psychopathological symptoms as produced by the body with its physiological processes, and how they are connected to your experiences, your values and your (our) socio-cultural context. This work allows me to develop clinical diagnoses based on symptoms, although the therapeutic focus will have a broader scope and at the same time will be more personalized.

 

After the identification of symptoms, the elaboration of a therapeutic plan follows, where I will determine whether the use of any psychoactive molecule marketed for psychiatric disorders (psychotropic drugs, psychedelics) can help you to modulate those physiological processes related to your symptoms. This should alleviate your suffering and should help you to manage your day-to-day life better. This model also allows me to make assessments on the possibility of interrupting or reducing psychopharmacological treatments that you are already taking and help you in eventual drug and substance withdrawal or detoxification processes.

 

Along with this essential work, I will work to develop a broad therapeutic plan that considers the different dimensions of the mental disorder. I will constantly collaborate with different professionals who share the same professional ethics and who are experts with different tools (language, guidelines, relationship, movement, creativity) in order to provide the best possible personalised treatment for you.

 

Finally, my role will not be paternal or as a “healer”; rather, I will use my knowledge and experiences to help you find the resources that allow you to heal yourself. Therefore, the final goal of treatment will be that one day you will not need substances and/or accompaniment.
