À medida que aprofundamos a compreensão de como o cérebro influencia nossas emoções, pensamentos e comportamentos em problemas como ansiedade, pânico e depressão, descobrimos que todas essas situações correspondem a uma das cinco grandes dimensões do funcionamento cerebral: Sistemas de Valência Positiva: Como sentimos prazer e buscamos recompensas. Em pessoas com depressão, por exemplo, pode haver uma redução significativa da capacidade de sentir prazer (anedonia), ligada a disfunções nesse sistema. Sistemas de Valência Negativa: Como reagimos a ameaças e sentimentos negativos. Nos transtornos de ansiedade, esses sistemas podem estar hiperativos, gerando respostas exageradas a situações de estresse. Cognição: Processos de pensamento, memória e tomada de decisões. Pessoas com depressão ou ansiedade frequentemente relatam dificuldade de concentração, problemas de memória e tomada de decisões prejudicada, relacionados a alterações cognitivas. Processos Sociais: Como nos relacionamos com os outros. Transtornos como a fobia social ou o transtorno de personalidade borderline podem envolver dificuldades significativas nesses processos. Modulação do Estado de Alerta (Arousal): Como mantemos o corpo e a mente alertas ou relaxados. Em casos de ansiedade e pânico, esse sistema pode estar hiperestimulado, levando à insônia, tensão muscular e fadiga. O que isso significa para você? Abordagem Medicamentosa: A abordagem medicamentosa atual foca cada vez mais em tratar os circuitos cerebrais específicos que regulam comportamento, sono, humor, emoções, concentração e memória. Por exemplo, em pessoas com ansiedade, medicamentos como inibidores seletivos de recaptação de serotonina (ISRSs) podem ajudar a regular o Sistema de Valência Negativa. Já para tratar a anedonia em casos de depressão, a intervenção no Sistema de Valência Positiva pode envolver medicamentos que aumentam a dopamina, responsável por gerar sensações de prazer. Essa personalização permite ajustar o tratamento às suas necessidades individuais, em vez de seguir uma abordagem única para todos. Abordagem Psicoterápica: A psicoterapia nas consultas foca em você como um todo – não apenas em seus sintomas, mas também em seus contextos de vida, pontos fortes e vulnerabilidades. Trabalhamos para identificar os ciclos de comportamento que mantêm os problemas, como os pensamentos automáticos negativos em transtornos de ansiedade e depressão. Além disso, buscamos entender as causas subjacentes que predispõem você a essas condições, o que pode ajudar a prevenir recaídas. Por exemplo, ao trabalhar com técnicas de Terapia Cognitivo-Comportamental (TCC), você pode aprender a reestruturar pensamentos negativos que ativam seu Sistema de Valência Negativa em situações estressantes, promovendo uma resposta mais equilibrada. Base Científica: Tudo isso está fundamentado em sólidas evidências científicas nos campos da neurociência, genética e comportamento. Estudos recentes mostram como a regulação de neurotransmissores como serotonina e dopamina, além de intervenções cognitivas, podem alterar efetivamente os circuitos cerebrais afetados por transtornos psiquiátricos, levando a uma melhoria significativa na qualidade de vida. Reviews Patient Testimonials Aline Santos In addition to being extremely competent, Fábio demonstrates truly rare attention and dedication. His care for patients makes all the difference. Tania Garcia Great welcome, attention, qualified listening, guidance and support. Maira Franceschini I started my medical treatment with Dr. Fabio in 2019. I was extremely satisfied with his treatment method and especially with his responsibility and commitment to the patient. The way he administers the medications is very cautious and dosed correctly. Bruno Braga Dr. Fábio is simply one of the best healthcare professionals I've ever had the opportunity to see. He is punctual, and his consultations are incredibly "human," making you feel comfortable and truly understand what's going on. Rafael Maia The best psychiatrist I've ever had. We enter his office, and through his excellent service, he acts as a psychiatrist and psychologist at the same time. We leave feeling light and well medicated. Congratulations to Dr. Fábio Martins Fonseca, an excellent professional!!! Gislaine Lima Dr Fabio Fonseca, wise, intelligent, polite, attentive, ethical, super human, likes to listen to his patients and is always assertive... Thank you very much for all your help. Thank you! Ana Carolina PG Vilela I am extremely grateful to Dr. Fábio for everything he has done for me. I have seen several psychiatrists since I was young, and none of them could diagnose me correctly. I was discouraged by so many doctors and psychologists, so I decided to try one last time. Dr. Fábio was the only doctor who was able to get to the root of the problem and give me an accurate diagnosis. Today, I can say that after less than a year of treatment, I feel completely cured! With a quality of life that I never imagined I could have. My family is completely happy with my improvement and for giving me back my desire to live and socialize with people. Doctor, thank you for everything. May God enable you to help more and more people. My gratitude! Roseana D. Monteiro I have been a patient of Dr. Fábio for several years and he has always helped me a lot with his advice. I feel very safe opening up about my anxieties to him because I feel welcomed and understood. He is very knowledgeable, listens to us carefully and is able to create a doctor/patient bond necessary for humanized care. I highly recommend him. Perguntas frequentes 1. How do I schedule an appointment? Contact us by phone, WhatsApp or email to schedule your in-person or online appointment. 2. Does Dr. Fábio accept health insurance plans? We only accept private consultations. 3. How long are the consultations? The first consultation lasts approximately 90 minutes. Subsequent consultations last 50 minutes. 4. How often are consultations held? The frequency of consultations varies according to: Treatment phase: At the beginning, when the diagnosis is being made and the treatment is being adjusted, consultations may be more frequent. As the condition stabilizes, the intervals between consultations may increase. Severity of the condition: In more severe cases, consultations may be more frequent to monitor treatment progress and adjust medication if necessary. Response to treatment: If the treatment is effective, consultations can be spaced out gradually. However, if new symptoms arise or the condition worsens, the frequency of consultations may increase. Individual needs of each patient: Each person has their own particularities and needs. The psychiatrist will evaluate your case individually and determine the ideal follow-up frequency. Why is consultation frequency important? Monitoring: The psychiatrist needs to follow your progress and adjust the treatment if necessary. Support: Consultations provide a safe space for you to ask questions, share difficulties, and receive emotional support. Prevention: Regular follow-up helps prevent crises and relapses. 5.⁠ ⁠What age groups does Dr. Fábio serve? Dr. Fábio treats adolescents from the age of 16, as well as adults and the elderly. His work encompasses different age groups, always respecting the particularities and needs of each stage of life. 6. Does Dr. Fábio use medication? Medication is not always necessary in psychiatric treatment because, in many cases, a psychotherapeutic or psychoeducational approach can be sufficient to address emotional and behavioral issues. Psychotherapy provides patients with a space for reflection, self-awareness, and the opportunity to change thought and behavior patterns, which can be highly effective in improving well-being without the need for pharmacological interventions. In Dr. Fábio’s case, with his background in psychotherapy, this approach is present in every consultation. This means that the treatment goes beyond prescribing medication, offering the patient the opportunity to explore and develop emotional and cognitive skills through therapeutic techniques. Psychotherapy can help address issues such as anxiety, depression, and stress, promoting lasting changes. On the other hand, it’s important to understand that in some cases, medication may be a necessary component of treatment. There’s no need for resistance to the use of medication, as it is often safe and effective, especially when properly administered under medical supervision. Often, a combination of psychotherapy and medication yields the best results, as medications can help relieve symptoms that hinder progress in therapy, allowing the patient to fully benefit from both approaches. Therefore, the choice of treatment is always individualized and based on the patient’s specific needs, ensuring comprehensive and integrated care. 7. Is it possible to bring a companion during consultations? The presence of a companion in a psychiatric consultation can be of great importance, offering various benefits for both the patient and the healthcare professional. Here are some reasons why: For the patient: Emotional support: The presence of a trusted person can provide security and comfort during the consultation, especially for those who feel anxious or vulnerable. Memory: The companion can help recall important information discussed during the consultation, such as medication instructions, follow-up dates, and details about the diagnosis. Different perspectives: People close to the patient may offer observations about behaviors and symptoms that the patient may not notice. Sharing information: The companion can help communicate important information to the healthcare professional, such as a family history of mental illness or recent stressful events. For the healthcare professional: Complementary information: The companion can provide valuable insights about the patient’s behavior in different contexts, helping to build a more complete picture of the situation. Confirmation of information: The professional can confirm the information provided by the patient with the companion, increasing the reliability of the diagnosis. Support in the therapeutic process: The companion's presence can facilitate communication between the patient and the professional, promoting adherence to the treatment. When having a companion may be especially useful: First consultation: During a first consultation, a companion’s presence can help reduce the patient’s anxiety and facilitate communication. Patients with communication difficulties: People with communication challenges, such as children, adolescents, or individuals with autism spectrum disorders, may benefit from the presence of a companion. Patients with more severe conditions: In cases of severe conditions, such as psychosis or dementia, having a companion may be essential for providing important information and ensuring the patient’s safety. It is important to emphasize: Patient consent: The presence of a companion should always be agreed upon with the patient. If the patient is uncomfortable with someone’s presence, the healthcare professional must respect that decision. Confidentiality: The companion should be informed about the importance of maintaining confidentiality regarding the information discussed during the consultation. In summary: The presence of a companion in a psychiatric consultation can be a valuable resource for both the patient and the healthcare professional, contributing to a more accurate diagnosis, more effective treatment, and better patient follow-up. However, the decision to have a companion should be made in consultation with the patient, respecting their needs and preferences. 8.⁠ ⁠What is Dr. Fábio's care environment like?
