  • I participated in one-on-one meetings between psychiatrists and patients. I saw how to take the patient's anamnesis. I had the opportunity to observe how patients with many different psychological disorders behave and talk. I learned how psychiatrists evaluate patients' mental states to make a diagnosis, how they maintain their professional boundaries, and also the dynamics of establishing an empathic relationship. I learned the diseases in which many psychiatric drugs are used. By attending electroconvulsive sessions, I saw how patients reacted.
