With more than 23 years treating the most challenging mental health and addiction issues, Dr. Raul Rodriguez has developed comprehensive and highly specialized outpatient programs at the Delray Center for Healing with an emphasis on interventional psychiatry and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). This model is engineered to handle more challenging conditions including treatment-resistant depression, trauma/PTSD, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, and any number of other psychiatric conditions.
“Many of the hard cases require a creative, individualized, out-of-the-box approach to get the patient better. The last eight years have been spent utilizing a simultaneous combination of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), photobiomudulation of the brain (PBM), intravenous ketamine infusions, neurofeedback and DBT, all guided by brain network analytic (BNA) sequential brain mappings to identify target areas, direct individualized treatment, and monitor progress,” he explains.
Dr. Rodriguez notes that many of his new patients seeking mental health treatment believe they are hopeless cases when they first come in.
“We give them new hope that an effective solution does exist for treating their severe condition. In addition to the newest therapies, we also incorporate an advanced combination of traditional psychiatric treatments as well as myriad holistic methods to help solve the complex puzzle of each patient’s mental health syndrome, so they can enjoy life again.”
