Dr Jane Schouten is a psychiatrist based in Woody Point, Brisbane, Queensland. She is associated with Ramsay Clinic New Farm. With over 20 years of experience, Dr Schouten specialises in treating a range of mental health conditions, with a particular interest in General Adult and Pre & Postnatal psychiatry.

Dr Schouten has a strong focus on the treatment of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). C-PTSD is a condition that affects individuals who have experienced prolonged and repeated trauma, leading to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and intrusive thoughts. Through innovative and effective treatments, Dr Schouten helps patients recover and heal from this debilitating condition.

One such treatment that Dr Schouten utilises is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), which has shown great promise in treating individuals with C-PTSD. TMS involves the use of magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain, improving mood and reducing symptoms. This non-invasive and FDA-approved procedure has been proven to be safe and effective for many patients, especially those who have not responded to other forms of treatment.

In addition to TMS, Dr Schouten also combines therapy with this treatment modality to enhance its efficacy, employing approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness-based interventions. Through the integration of these therapies, Dr Schouten provides comprehensive and holistic care to her patients.

Dr Schouten's expertise extends beyond C-PTSD, encompassing a broad range of mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Her extensive knowledge and experience in these areas allow her to provide evidence-based and personalized treatment plans to her patients.

With a strong belief in the potential for recovery, Dr Jane Schouten empowers individuals to manage their symptoms and lead fulfilling lives. If you or a loved one are struggling with C-PTSD or any other mental health condition, seeking help from a qualified mental health provider like Dr Schouten is crucial in taking the first step towards recovery.
