Meet Dr Zenaida Tenea
Dr Tenea’s focus is on adult mental health care, although she has also had broad experience in the care of adolescent clients. She manages various conditions, including depressive and bipolar disorders, anxiety disorders, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders, trauma and stressor related disorders and mental health difficulties arising from medical conditions (such as epilepsy and stroke). She also has a special interest in burnout and its link to depression, and has conducted research in this field.
Dr Tenea believes that mental health is inextricably linked to physical well-being and affects one’s overall wellness. The writing of one’s emotional and mental blueprint starts in the family unit. She therefore has a special passion for maternal care, as positive intervention in this domain has long-reaching effects.
Dr Tenea advocates for careful, evidence-based treatment and does not promote overprescribing of medication.
