Behavioral
Medicine is a field of psychology that deals with both
the behavior that affects health, and the effects of illness
on a person. Psychological treatment of medical issues
is always performed as an addition to the physician’s
prescribed treatment. It is never a replacement for that
treatment.
Clients learn how to take more responsibility
for their health. Habit change related to nutrition, drinking,
weight loss, exercise, smoking cessation, and sleep is
crucial to better health.

Anxiety, depression, fear and fatigue are
some of the feelings that arise form having medical issues and
can worsen the situation. Family conflicts may occur as well.
Finding happiness, despite illness may be a psychological challenge
for the patient. Clients learn to improve the status of their
medical issues by changing their thoughts, feelings and behaviors
with the help of a psychologist.
