We offer
Medication Management
What is it?
Medication management services are considered to follow up appointments to the Initial Evaluation. We do not rush these appointments and spend 20-30 minutes with each client to discuss the progress of their treatment, how they are feeling, and to discuss any concerns they have. Medications are an important part of effective treatment for many mental health conditions. The decision to start or to continue psychiatric medications is not one to be taken lightly. Our approach to psychopharmacology (or “medication management”) is designed to respect your individuality and to acknowledge the complexity of this intervention.
What else?
First and foremost, effective medication management takes time. A detailed history and ongoing discussion of your response to medications are essential to providing excellent care.
Furthermore, when starting or adjusting medications, we request that you return frequently to be sure that the interventions are effective. We will weigh you regularly and may check your blood pressure or request additional laboratory tests to monitor your reaction to medications.
Most people who benefit from psychiatric medications do best when medication management is combined with psychotherapy.
We would love to see you.
