Having been a physician for almost a quarter of a century and worked in psychiatry for over a decade it has become apparent that there is a dysfunctional family dynamics involved in most major mental illness. Be it relationship issues between a husband and wife, mother and father or past issues when a child was growing up (rape, divorce). Almost every disorder and mental illness are influenced by the family. Having noticed this, I decided to go a step further to help our patients by creating The Potters Hand Institute of Marriage and Healthy Relationships. The Potters Hand Institute of Marriages and Healthy Relationships is a Christian centered and culturally sensitive Institution. It will provide scriptural based and scientifically accurate information on all aspects marriages and healthy relationships.
Not every patient meets mental health criteria; they could just be having relationship issues or issues that if unattended to can deteriorate to a point where they will develop mental symptoms. To prevent such, when people start struggling in their personal and family lives; we have decided to intervene very quickly to work on those dynamics. This way we can prevent them from deteriorating into full blown mental disorders.
For those who have developed mental disorders, while we can write medication and prescription for them in the clinic. We are now going beyond treating the symptoms but identifying how the symptoms affect the day to day life and treat the symptoms from the root. A good example is a child who has learning disability or ADHD might be a challenging child to raise, and this might lead to stress amongst the parents. In this situation, the parents might not be patient with this child. Eventually, both parent gets stressed and the start pointing fingers at each other. It is just a matter of time
