Not everyone experiencing mental health challenges needs medication, but it can be a valuable part of treatment for conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and more. During your initial evaluation, our providers take time to understand your symptoms, history, and lifestyle before recommending any medication. We explore all options with you and only suggest medication when it may truly enhance your well-being and daily functioning.

Not necessarily. Medication plans are highly individualized. Some people use psychiatric medication for a short period during times of crisis or transition, while others benefit from longer-term support. Our goal is to find the most effective and least intrusive treatment plan for you. We regularly review your progress so adjustments can be made as your needs evolve.

It’s common to have questions or concerns about side effects. That’s why we start with low doses when appropriate, monitor your response closely, and remain in close communication with you throughout your treatment. If side effects occur, we work collaboratively to adjust the dose or explore alternative medications ensuring you feel heard, safe, and supported every step of the way.

Yes! As a matter of fact, many people find that combining medication with therapy leads to better outcomes. Medication can help stabilize your mood or reduce distressing symptoms, making it easier to engage fully in therapeutic work. We believe in integrated care and can coordinate with your therapist (or connect you with one) to ensure your treatment supports all aspects of your mental health.

It depends on the type of medication and your individual response. Some people start noticing changes within a few days, while others may need several weeks for the full effects to take hold. Patience and open communication are key. We’ll monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to help you get the most benefit as steadily and safely as possible.
