General Info

The philosophy ofMaine General Psychiatryis that problems should be addressed, first, psychosocially, and that medication should be reserved, whenever possible, for situations in which "talking therapies" and environmental changes are insufficient. This is especially the case with children and adolescents. All treatment decisions involve communication between. Dr. Blaik and client. More specifically, for any given clinical problem, Dr. Blaik recommends various treatment alternatives and explains the risks and benefits of each.
