Real stories. Real results.

“I am so pleased to have found Infinite Care. Thirty years consuming copious amounts of alcohol and abusing my body, my liver finally saying ‘no more’. Additionally, my general health was suffering ailments popping up every year as well as under the excess weight I had put on over the years. Through this programme I was taught to love and respect myself, initially by regular ‘Headspace’ videos which enabled me to become aware of my head, mind and body no matter what environment I am in. Having been introduced to the concepts I am now practicing standing alone and developing […]
"Life is difficult at best but especially these days. Life is full of difficult, emotionally contaging people at work and in our families and always-on work needs produces stress and depression in us.The modern style of counselling is to help recognise these and many other situations, to suggest tools to help and ways of thinking that help in these situations and to practice them when they arise. Once you start to use these 'tools' they defend you against the worst of how life can affect you.This way of counselling has been proven effective scientifically, and may be preferable to medications especially for the younger person for mild or moderate problems. As a local physician I am very comfortable referring my patients to Sutton Burke and her team at Infinite Mind Care to get this evidence based therapy here on island"
Everyone I talk to wants me to express appreciation for your presentation yesterday. Your years of research, your depth of understanding of user interfaces, and your ability to present the subject in such an interesting way resulted in a memorable occasion for attendees. I personally appreciated your approach to anticipating users' intents. Since we are entering a new growth phase as we begin the Civil Service 5 Year Strategic Plan, I believe civil servants can benefit from the methods you suggested for their respective development. Your enthusiasm is contagious, and we trust attendees will use your suggestions in their overall development to take their careers to the next level.
My experience with neurofeedback therapy (NFT) at Infinite Mindcare was exceptional. NFT is completely painless and noninvasive. I noticed better focus, memory retention, decreased anxiety, and decreased impulsivity. My sleep significantly improved, as I could fall asleep quicker, stay asleep longer, and wake up rested. I benefited most from NFT as I no longer had an overly aroused brain: no excessive and racing thoughts
It was nice to be understood and reassured by a professional who never imposed their beliefs or opinions but offered guidance.
was somewhat sceptical of NFT when I first started the process at Infinite Mindcare , but having struggled with anxiety and depression for a long time I did want to give it a try with an open mind as I could. I was resigned to living with my symptoms, none of which were debilitating, and the cognitive therapy and medication was effective so I could cope. When the NFT therapy began to lighten my outlook and specific issues that have been a constant companion were now reduced. Having completed a course of NFT I have no doubt it has improved many of my symptoms to a great degree. Thank you IMC.
Neurofeedback is one of the most effective treatments I've ever come across to help address trauma, anxiety and depression. My sessions have me regain clarity, connectedness of mind and body as well as finding healthy mind and body balance. Highly recommend!!!
The quality of care and depth of experience of the Infinite MindCare team is exceptional. They have provided multi disciplinary care to our family to support a serious mental health crisis. It makes all the difference having access to this level of care on island.

FAQs

How can I make an appointment?

To schedule an appointment, we first ask that you complete our intake form and provide us with your insurance and payment information. Once we receive this information, we will confirm your insurance benefits and contact you to schedule the earliest available appointment.

What insurance do you accept?

We accept several Cayman insurances including: Aetna, BAF, Britcay, Cayman First, Cinico, Fidelity/Vanguard, PanAm. If you have overseas insurance such as Cigna, you will need to pay for your sessions out of pocket, however, we can provide you with an invoice with all relevant information to give to your insurance provider for direct reimbursement. In order to use your medical insurance, you must have an outpatient mental health benefit for use on the island. While we verify your insurance benefits and provide you with an estimated breakdown of co-pays, you are ultimately responsible for understanding your own benefits.

Does seeking advice mean something is wrong with me?

No. Many people seek counselling to understand themselves or others, to develop personally, or simply to manage life. As humans, we all experience stressors and difficult emotions. Therapy is a means to learn to develop our functioning skills and build greater resilience, regardless of the circumstances.

What is counseling?

Counseling/therapy involves meeting with a therapist (such as a counselor or psychologist) to address emotional, social, or behavioral concerns. Trained and licensed clinicians work with you to consider a variety of treatments according to your treatment goals. The benefits of therapy are numerous and may include improved mood, personal growth, and interpersonal relationships. Disclaimer: Just because you come to therapy does not mean you will change or improve. The willingness to make changes is ultimately up to the individual. Please remember that we typically only have 1 hour per week in our offices and most of the change happens outside of the therapy room.

Counseling is not about coming to vent for an hour. While we have couches and you can lay down, we do not perform psychoanalysis. Counseling is an active process where the client shares and receives feedback, develops skills, and practices interventions to help in their real life outside of the office. Yes, there are times when people just need to “vent” and feel heard. And we have a space for that, to be sure. We will also encourage change.

How many sessions will I need to achieve my goals?

There is no definitive answer to this until you see your therapist. The average counseling treatment usually lasts 3-6 months, however, each person is unique. Some people come to us and feel like they got what they were looking for in 1-3 sessions. The first few sessions are assessment and getting acquainted. It is important that you feel comfortable with your therapist and the process, and sometimes it takes some people longer than others to feel comfortable.

What is Mindcare?

How we empower our clients and ourselves to create optimal mental health, i.e. healthy mental health habits

The Flower of Life is a sacred geometry believed to hold information about the secrets of all life and is, in essence, a blueprint for all life. Its design symbolizes the interconnectedness of life on Earth from a scientific and ecological standpoint, as the symbol has been found throughout the world since ancient civilizations, as well as in the biology of plant and human life.

At Infinite Mindcare we believe that you hold all the answers and tools within yourself; that you are the expert of your own life. Our job is to help you see that in yourself and to help you actively live it through everything you do in and out of the therapy office.
