Emotional Wellness

You wear countless hats - wife, sister, mother, caretaker, professional. It's nice being super-woman, but all that juggling can put a real strain on your emotions. At The Medical Center of Plano, we understand your emotional well-being is just as important as the physical. That's why we have a highly accomplished psychiatrist, Dr. Sunita Singh, dedicated exclusively to Women'sLink patients.

Dr. Singh and her team will help you navigate all the hormonally volatile stages of life, including:

• Puberty - when peer pressure and body image issues can cause teenage girls to feel especially vulnerable
• Pregnancy - when the chemical changes in your body during and after pregnancy can trigger depression
• Menopause - when depression and anxiety can escalate into major issues

We also help women deal with the stress of infertility, miscarriage, job loss, divorce, a life-altering diagnosis or caring for an elderly parent.

Although medicine is sometimes the right solution, many emotional issues can be treated through counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation exercises and deep breathing techniques. You may also find peace through connecting with someone in your same situation at a support group. Just don't fight your feelings alone. The smartest step you can take is to seek help, then we'll take it from there.
