Psinforma.com.br was created, built and is maintained by psychology graduate students in their 3rd and 4th semesters of the UNIP - Paulista University.

The "insight", or "idea", to build a portal which centralized mental health information emerged from class discussions in which holistic solutions were identified, providing a panoramic view of different mental issues which highlighted the need for a multidisciplinary approach in order for the best results to be obtained. 

In hindsight, a multidisciplinary approach and the need of different types of professionals to address mental health issues should not be a surprise 

An example which clarifies the need for different types of professionals can be as simple as telling the same story to two different persons. Even though the information provided to both is the same, each of the recipients will present different points of view regarding the message which was told. 

In other words: a diversity of views and a broad range of technical expertise is key for a thorough, productive and optimal mental treatment.

The psychiatrist makes sure that the brain physical structure is working properly. The psychologist addresses the reasoning and cognitive aspects of the brain. The nurse or companion makes sure the patients comply with each needed treatment and guarantees their safety and the safety of others. The hospital or clinic provides the necessary physical infrastructure for the patient's adequate treatment and recovery.

Our mental evolution can be exponentially accelerated if we allow ourselves to be assisted by mental health professionals and insitutions. 

The improvement of mental health and emotional comfort is what inspired the creation of Psinforma.com.br
