DR. HELEN COONEY, ​BSc (Hum Biol), MB ChB, FRANZCP, Cert Sports Med.

Helen specialises in the mental health of women including perinatal psychiatry and psychiatry of old age.

She uses a bio-psycho-social approach to supported assessments. This means collecting information, making a diagnosis, making sure you understand the diagnostic process, then developing the treatment plan with you and your therapist. Medication could be part of this plan but never in isolation.
