Seeing Beyond the Diagnosis: Our Human-Centered Approach

“Everybody is broken in some way... We are always trying to find somebody whose broken pieces fit with our broken pieces and something whole emerges.” - Bruce Springsteen

The medical approach, which often views individuals as a collection of symptoms, has long dominated the mental health landscape. However, at PCH, we believe that understanding the human experience goes beyond mere categorization. We prioritize emotional and cognitive states over rigid and often incorrect labels, placing each individual's experiences in the context of their life journey.

Traditional diagnostic methods like the DSM-V are biased and limiting. We use these labels solely for administrative and insurance purposes.
