Psychiatry Consultations

Taking care of your mind is an act of courage. Here, you will find support.

A safe, judgment-free space.

Here, each person is heard as unique. Each story has its place. Each phase of life has its time.

In Mentara, the Psychiatry is exercised with an integrative, respectful and deeply human vision. We believe that treating emotional suffering is more than prescribing medication — it is listening to the person in their entirety.

Our Psychiatry consultations, led by Dr. Mylena Caroso (Family Doctor with a postgraduate degree in Psychiatry), are carried out in a teleconsultation format and offer close, safe monitoring adapted to each person's reality.

Consultations with

Mylena Caroso

Family and Community Doctor with an integrative and human perspective.

Her practice is based on the conviction that each clinical encounter is an opportunity for mutual growth – as a professional and as a human being. She chose Family and Community Medicine because she believes in care that considers the whole: the biological, psychological, social and spiritual aspects; the person, the family and the community.

Graduated in Medicine, she has a postgraduate degree in Psychiatry and is currently training in Somatic Psychotherapy at Mentara, deepening her commitment to an approach that integrates body, mind and emotion.

Her quest for knowledge has led her to explore complementary practices and traditional medicines that value lifestyle habits and preventive care. She has training in Ayurveda Therapy, Auriculotherapy, Reiki, Myofascial Pain and Medicinal Cannabis Prescription, tools that she integrates with sensitivity and scientific rigor into her clinical practice.

In addition to her healthcare work, she has experience as a university professor and trainer in the field of Medicine, with strong involvement in in-service teaching processes. She completed a Master's degree in Family Health and training in Medical Preceptorship, which reinforces her dedication to medical education and the construction of more conscious and empathetic care.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Are consultations in person or online?

Our Psychiatry consultations are carried out by teleconsultation (online), with complete confidentiality, security and attention to your well-being. You can do them from the comfort and privacy of your home.

 

You can seek psychiatric care whenever you feel that something is affecting your mental or emotional health — such as anxiety, prolonged sadness, sleep disorders, panic attacks, racing thoughts, trauma or suffering that interferes with your daily life. It is also recommended for those who have already been diagnosed and need ongoing medical guidance.

 

No. Medication is only prescribed when truly indicated, and always with clear explanation, monitoring and dialogue with the patient. Psychiatry often works in conjunction with Somatic Psychotherapy and other therapeutic approaches.

 

at Mentara, we promote an approach integrative and collaborative. Whenever necessary — and with your consent — psychiatric monitoring can be coordinated with psychotherapists from our team, for a more complete care plan.

 
 
Teleconsultations are led by Dr. Mylena Caroso, a Family Physician with a postgraduate degree in Psychiatry. She has experience in personalized and integrative care, focusing on each patient's biopsychosocial process.
