Treatment methods

01

Psychiatric consultations

In our team, we have psychiatry specialists and doctors currently undergoing specialization in psychiatry. During the first (40 min.) and subsequent (20 min.) medical visits, they will guide you through the process of diagnosing mental illnesses and disorders, as well as prescribe the appropriate pharmacotherapy. During the visits, the doctor also helps in choosing suitable psychotherapeutic interventions based on the specific situation.

02

Psychiatric consultations for children and adolescents

The role of child and adolescent psychiatry is to treat disorders and mental illnesses in the pediatric age group, which encompasses the period from birth to adulthood. A child psychiatrist is involved in treating various conditions such as depressive disorders, psychotic disorders, anxiety disorders, phobias, ADHD, self-harm, and behavioral disorders in children.

03

Individual psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is a non-pharmacological method of treating mental disorders. In practice, it involves regular meetings with a specialist who uses methods to alleviate or treat psychological, emotional, and behavioral disorders. The experience of the past few years has shown that certain forms of therapy can also be effectively conducted online.

04

Therapy for cognitive function disorders

Cognitive function disorder therapy – therapy aimed at improving functioning in the areas of speech, memory, and daily activities for individuals following head injuries, strokes, or brain function disorders due to various conditions and diseases. It is conducted by a neuropsychologist. The patient participates in various exercises and tasks designed to stimulate damaged brain functions. Available also in English.

05

Online consultations

Our Center offers help to all people, including those who are unable to come to a visit in person. We offer online consultations for people from all over Poland, both psychiatric and psychological consultations, via video calls and in some cases also by phone.

06

Psychodietetic consultations

Psychodietetic consultations are intended for individuals who want to change their relationship with food. Patients with eating disorders (such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating) and those who regulate tension or emotions through eating will benefit from it.
These consultations are recommended as a supportive process for pharmacological treatment and sometimes as an independent method of working with the patient. Available in English and online.

07

Psychological diagnosis

Psychological diagnosis is a medical procedure that constitutes an important element in the patient’s treatment process and aims to confirm the presence of a specific mental health disorder or rule it out. Professionals in clinical psychology and psychologists undergoing a 4-year specialization possess the expertise for such assessments. It is recommended that this type of diagnostic assessment be conducted in the native language, preferably by a psychologist who speaks the same native language to ensure the highest quality of diagnosis.

08

Neuropsychological diagnosis

Indicated for patients with issues related to speech, memory, daily activities, individuals post-head injuries, strokes, suspected dementia, and those with brain function disorders in the course of various conditions and diseases.
Conducted by a neuropsychologist. The diagnostic process concludes with the issuance of a neuropsychological opinion, discussing the results with the patient, and providing documentation.

09

ADHD diagnosis

The diagnosis of ADHD is possible after the initial general psychiatric consultation, aiming to rule out other mental disorders that may present similar symptoms. The psychiatrist at NURT directs the patient to further diagnostic tests conducted by a neuropsychologist.

Intranasal esketamine therapy

Nasal esketamine therapy (Spravato®) in the treatment of treatment-resistant depression.
The drug Spravato® is intended for patients who have not responded to at least two different antidepressant therapies in the current episode of moderate to severe depression.

Diagnostyka psychologiczna

Kompleksowo zdiagnozowane zaburzenie gwarantuje podjęcie właściwej ścieżki terapeutycznej przez lekarza, czyli wpływa na jakość procesu leczenia.

W NURT Centrum Terapii możliwe jest wykonanie diagnozy osobowości – wykluczenia lub potwierdzenia obecności u pacjenta zaburzeń osobowości, które nie są stanami nagłymi a rozwijają się w wieku dziecięcym lub nastoletnim i pozostają obecne w wieku dorosłym.

Nasi klinicyści wykonują również diagnozę psychologiczną zaburzeń funkcjonowania jako wsparcie konsultacji psychiatrycznej w trudnych diagnostycznie przypadkach. Przeprowadzana jest w celu wykluczenia lub potwierdzenia obecności zaburzeń funkcjonowania psychicznego między innymi takich jak zaburzenia nastroju, zaburzenia lękowe, zaburzenia związane ze stresem, czy zaburzenia psychotyczne.

Poza wywiadem psychologicznym specjalista zbiera informacje od badanego za pomocą profesjonalnych narzędzi testowych. W NURT Centrum Terapii możliwa jest diagnostyka przy użyciu testu SCID, czy MMPI-2.

Proces diagnostyczny kończy się wystawieniem opinii psychologicznej, omówieniem z pacjentem wyników i wydaniem dokumentacji.

Neuropsychological diagnosis

How to prepare for the examination?
It is advisable to bring along your medical documentation, including medical records, descriptions of head imaging studies (MRI, CT), and hospital discharge summaries.
A history gathered from close relatives is very helpful; we recommend the presence of a close person during the visit.

ADHD diagnosis

ADHD is often confused with various disorders; therefore, our team of experts emphasizes thorough diagnostics.
The diagnostic process consists of several meetings, including a psychological interview and a screening test. Subsequently, a neuropsychological diagnosis is established using professional testing tools. In addition to the specialized DIVA 5.0 test, we complement our methods with the modern MOXO examination, which further assures us in making the correct diagnosis.

The MOXO test is one of the most advanced tools for ADHD assessment and is conducted using a computer. This test can be administered to children from the age of 6 and adults. The diagnostic process concludes with the issuance of a neuropsychological opinion, discussing the results with the patient, and providing documentation.

Intranasal esketamine therapy

The decision to prescribe the medicinal product Spravato® is made by a psychiatrist.
The nasal spray medication is intended to be administered by the patient under the supervision of a doctor. The treatment session involves the administration of the nasal spray Spravato® and a period of observation after drug administration, both conducted in the clinic at NURT Centrum Terapii. Before and then after 40 minutes of medication administration, the patient’s blood pressure is monitored. Patients must remain in a lying position under the observation of a healthcare professional until their condition is deemed clinically stable and allows them to leave the facility.
In the initial phase, the medication should be administered twice a week, and from the 5th week of therapy, the frequency gradually decreases. After reducing the severity of depressive symptoms, treatment for at least 6 months is recommended.

Psychological diagnosis of children and adolescents, including ADHD

The diagnostic process begins with an initial and developmental interview with the parent/parents, lasting 1-2 sessions. During the interview, information is gathered about the reason for referral, the child’s health and family, previous treatment history (if any), and the overall functioning of the family. The developmental interview takes into account the period of pregnancy and childbirth, the early years of the child’s life, and their later functioning in both the family and educational systems.
The next stage involves observing the child and/or conducting a psychological interview with them. At this stage, more detailed psychometric tests may also be administered to deepen the information about the child. The selection of tests depends on the hypotheses set by the psychologist. Tests can be completed by both parents and children over 7 years old.

Examinations for ADHD include the administration of the MOXO test (feasible from the age of six and onwards) to assess basic ADHD symptoms.
