How Do You Spell PITHIATRIC?
Pronunciation: [pˌɪθɪˈatɹɪk] (IPA) 
Pithiatric, spelled /ˌpɪθiˈætrɪk/, is a rare word used to describe a kind of psychiatric treatment that aims to restore mental and emotional balance through a deep understanding of a patient's innermost self. The word is composed of two Greek roots: pithos, meaning "receptacle" or "container", and iatreia, meaning "healing" or "care". The spelling is derived from its Greek roots and reflects the pronunciation in the original language. While pithiatric is not a common term, it is sometimes used in the field of psychiatry to describe holistic approaches to mental healthcare.
