some key behaviors that may assist doctors to properly diagnosing a medical condition.

effective solution to a problem. Finding
solutions may require a wider scope to enabling a patients to overcome their
illness.

plan for the patient. The psychologist's
role is the following:
- To develop life style plans and adjustments
- To support groups and support systems in places,
- Counseling to help assist the patient in overcoming their illness or being able to better manage with their overall health (e.g. though education, awareness, and training through managed care).
