Dr. Linda Rubene

Psychiatrist

I consult patients who face various mental disorders - depression, anxiety, somatoform vegetative dysfunction, panic disorders, sleep disorders and others. In addition, I am also interested in the mental health of pregnant women and new mothers. During the consultations, I get acquainted with the patient's medical history, general somatic and mental health, listen to the patient's complaints and provide recommendations for optimal treatment and rehabilitation. If necessary, I also educate and consult patients' relatives about the health of their relatives.

I regularly supplement my knowledge at conferences and courses both in Latvia and abroad, engage in research activities and give lectures on various topics related to mental health.
