FAQ

Questions About Life Coaching

What is psychodynamic therapy and how does it differ from other approaches? +
Psychodynamic therapy explores the deeper patterns — often rooted in early experiences — that shape your emotions, relationships, and choices. Unlike approaches focused purely on symptoms, psychodynamic therapy aims for lasting change by helping you understand why you feel the way you do.
How do you handle confidentiality for executive clients? +
Complete discretion is fundamental to executive psychiatric care. All sessions, communications, and records are held to the highest standards of medical confidentiality. We understand the professional stakes and maintain absolute privacy.
How is psychiatrist-led life coaching different from regular coaching? +
Dr. Tamerin brings decades of psychiatric understanding to the coaching relationship. This means we don't just focus on goals and accountability — we also address the psychological patterns that may be quietly holding you back. It's coaching with clinical depth.
What is your approach to medication? +
Medication is sometimes helpful but never the entire solution. When appropriate, Dr. Tamerin prescribes carefully and conservatively, always in the context of understanding you as a whole person — not just managing symptoms. Many patients find they need less medication as therapy deepens.
