During the initial 60 minute evaluation, we will discuss history and symptoms to gain clarity on diagnosis to guide our treatment plan moving forward. I will provide my diagnostic impression as well as evidence based treatment recommendations. I fully believe in a collaborative model to empower you in making decisions for your mental health care.
During the 30 minute follow up visits, we will discuss response, efficacy and side effects to medications. It will be an ongoing conversation of risk and benefit to continue psychiatric medication to help with your mental health. The goal is to minimize medication use as much as possible while optimizing your quality of life. As part of treatment, lab studies and/or Genesight testing may be ordered if indicated.
Follow up appointments are typically 30 minutes to incorporate both medication management as well as brief psychotherapy to address stressors, understand social dynamics, and discuss coping mechanisms. I highly value getting to know you on a personal and holistic level. I look forward to establish and build a working relationship in our treatment.
