Editorial Content
Drgaato.com was created to provide information about my clinical practice coincident with material describing general mental health concerns and wellness. It is intended for your personal and non-commercial use only. The information offered is for personal education, edification, information and entertainment.
My primary goal with Drgaato.com is to provide users with relevant, quality information and content. I respect the intelligence of my readers and believe that with the appropriate tools and resources they will make informed decisions in their best interests.
While I make every reasonable effort to ensure that all posted information is accurate at the time of posting, I am not able to guarantee its reliability or accuracy. Moreover, many ideas and suggestions on this site are derivations, interpretations or conjecture based on research or just hypotheses founded on what researchers have discovered so far. As such, not all content on the site is evidence-based to the same degree. With that noted, I will provide results from relevant research studies whenever I feel that it is applicable.

Caution
Although we are increasingly learning more about the brain and how it works, the interpretations and implications of those facts (i.e., the theory) are not yet set in stone.
