Frequently Asked Questions

We offer a range of providers depending on your needs including psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, psychologists and therapists.

A psychiatrist is at the highest level and, therefore, can manage prescriptions, provide therapy, and coordinate with other areas of medicine to improve treatments, all with an emphasis on a healthy lifestyle. Nurse practitioners have advanced education and clinical training in a healthcare specialty and also deal with prescription management, in depth health and lifestyle analysis, and more. Psychologists provide counseling, as well as conduct psychological testing including ADD and working with kids. Therapists also provide counseling which can include adult, teenage, or couples therapy. Most clients see both a psychiatrist and a therapist for complete care, however, individual needs vary. Because our practice includes clinicians from all disciplines, you can get total treatment in one place.

Before your first appointment, you will need to fill out some paperwork which can be done at our office or downloaded HERE. Most of the first visit will involve your provider gathering information about your situation. Remember that all information is kept completely confidential, and a complete and honest assessment is needed to provide the most effective treatment.

As your treatment continues, your provider(s) will continually reassess your symptoms and collaborate with you on your treatment plan. If you might benefit from any additional services, we will offer referrals to our trusted community partners. The most important thing is for you to feel comfortable with your treatment. Do not hesitate to ask questions or raise concerns with your provider(s).
