Shame and ridicule seem to be her main tools. At several points, she was shaking her head and laughing at me as I talked. I left sessions feeling worse than when I went in. I thoroughly regret the experience.
Dr Goodwin is lovely and honest. Psychiatry in Canada is not the stereotypical treatment one might expect based on years of pop culture references with regards to talk therapy. Due to universal healthcare psychiatrists are instructed to focus on pharmaceutical treatment because talk therapy, of course, takes a long time. If you feel you need extensive talk therapy then it might be well suited to seek out a psychotherapist. Dr Goodwin us genuine and caring. I am truly grateful to have her.
She does not follow up with her patients. she has no constructive advise. Only listens and look at her watch and is always in rush. I do not recommend her at all.
