Description

The Bear Clinic was opened in late 2011 by Dr. Jane Gilbert MD, Psychiatrist. Dr. Gilbert realized that Mental Health needed to be addressed in a broader way than that used in tradition medicine. Dr. Jane Gilbert has been a Psychiatrist for over 25 years and has been a visionary in her field. She worked at the Oakville Hospital after training at The University of Toronto in Psychology, Medicine and Psychiatry. Dr. J Gilbert was the Chief of Psychiatry at The Hospital and worked as The Program Director for several years. It was in the creation of innovative programs in the hospital setting that her passion grew for providing better and more accessible care. Dr. Gilbert listened to hundreds of patients who wanted doctors to be open to their needs and other types of therapies. Patients clearly wanted more time with caregivers as well as input into their own care plan. They expressed that they wanted all professionals involved in their health to communicate with each other. The patients themselves realized that their mental health was being addressed in isolation from their physical health. They wanted to be listened to. As a result of Dr. Gilbert's own desire to meet the needs of individuals along with her realizing that better care is required, The Bear Clinic was opened. A a team of like minded professionals work together at the Clinic. We know that Health and illness result from interactions between one’s genes and all other aspects of lifestyle and connections in our world. We realize that the body has an innate capacity for healing, self-repair and adaptation to injury, loss or stress. The goal of therapy is to foster and support that innate capacity. The Bear Clinic understands that patients as more than physical bodies. People are physical, emotional and spiritual beings who live in a society and within a broader world. These other dimensions of life are relevant to health and quality of life. We provide time for people. We consider all aspects of health. We help people foster healthy connections. We work as a team and the patient is part of the team. We individualize a plan depending on a patients unique needs. We use only proven methods of care. We listen, we care. This page helps people know that such a Clinic exists and that they can access the help we provide. We hope to educate and provide hope. We welcome questions and your own story.
