Pyschology
A large part of your health plan is your mental health. Here at Hunter Allied Care we know how taxing a health care journey can be, which is why we value psychology and offer the service to our clients. A psychologist is a valuable part of any comprehensive pain management plan.
Psychology plays an important role in easing patients suffering and supporting patients through trauma, pain management, and more. We offer pre-operative psychology sessions and evaluation that can help you understand the expected outcomes of surgery and give you a clearer indication of the expected success and what to expect post surgery.
Undergoing surgery can have an affect on returning to work, withdrawal from social activities, and physiotherapy rehabilitation. All these things evoke anxiety, disrupt quality of life, and can play havoc with pain beliefs. Pre and post operative psychology sessions can help with setting appropriate recovery goals, increase your motivation, reduce fear and anxiety about surgical procedures. Sessions can also help with understanding the interaction between pain and mood, reduce emotional stress, help you with strategies and skills to cope with stress and pain.
