Abstract:
The renewed emphasis on dynamic psychiatry is a countervailing response to the giant leaps in Biologic Psychiatry in the last 2-3 decades. The psychiatrist is uniquely endowed with his medical background and psychological orientation to travel through the bio-psycho-spiritual interface of human existence and accompany the critically and terminally ill.
