Adults (18-65)

​*Being held accountable to God, we fully believe in directing people to the right specialist for their needs.  Because Dr. Fortuchang is not a geriatric specialist, she does not consider herself an expert in this area.  Therefore, Dr. Fortuchang prefers to direct patients over the age of 65 years to a Geriatric Psychiatrist.* 

• Research shows the benefit of addressing and using a person's spirituality in their psychiatric treatment. 
• Mental illness affects nearly 1 in 4 adults.
• Its debilitating nature makes mental illness one of the leading causes of low productivity at work. 
• Hopelessness, worthlessness, unrest, and fear often accompany mental illness.
• Unresolved spiritual issues (un-forgiveness, resentment, un-repentence, etc) negatively impact a person's overall mental wellness and their ability to fully enjoy life.
• When emotional, mental and behavioral disorders go untreated, the problems get worse for the person and often negatively impact their family members.
• Accurate diagnosis and the effective use of ​ evidence-based psychotherapy, medication (when appropriate) and Biblical scriptures (when requested), helps adults with mental disorders to live productive, hopeful, peaceful and joyful lives.​

Dr. Fortuchang's unique treatment approach is a highly effective balance between proven evidence-based psychotherapeutic techniques and medication management (when appropriate), enriched with a Christian framework and a Biblical perspective.

Dr. Fortuchang believes in the importance of focusing on the mental wellness of her adult patients in entirety (mind, body, soul, spirit), in order to fully identify and address problems from the root.

I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me.  Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows.  But take heart, because I have overcome the world. "  John 16:33

So let's not get tired of doing what is good.  
​At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't give up. Galatians 6:9​
