5. Neurogenetic Counselling
Neurogenetic counseling is a specialized type of guidance that helps individuals and families understand the genetic factors associated with psychiatric disorders. It involves discussing how genes may influence mental health conditions, the likelihood of inherited traits, and the implications for individuals and their relatives. Counselors provide information on available genetic tests and support in making informed decisions about health and lifestyle. The goal is to empower people with knowledge, helping them navigate potential risks and resources while considering the emotional aspects of mental health and genetics.
