My go-to approach during sessions is to gain an understanding of my client's feelings, identify their treatment goals, and develop a plan together that will help them live their best life. I strive to develop a relationship that is both caring and collaborative, where the client feels respected and heard.
My typical approach to prescribing medicine is to determine the symptoms/needs of the client, discuss their level of comfort with medication, and establish what their ultimate treatment goals are. Clients will never feel pressured to start or continue medications when working with me; my client's needs and safety are the top priorities and their feelings and opinions are always valid.
I know that a client is making meaningful progress when they report a reduction in their symptoms, improvement in relationships, improvement in physical health, and/or an overall increased sense of well-being. The goal of treatment is not just to feel better than they did at the first session, but to reach a point where the client feels the best that they've felt in a long time.
In order for clients to feel their best, I encourage them to not only obtain a therapist but to also engage in activities that promote both physical and mental health. Such interventions include:
In preparation for the initial psychiatric session, I encourage the client to first congratulate themselves on starting their journey towards healing. After that, I'd recommend gathering as much information about their health history as possible, including current medications and past diagnoses, as well as creating a list of desired treatment outcomes. The first visit can feel intimidating, but I will do my very best to make every client feel as comfortable and cared for as possible.

Psychiatry allows people struggling to manage mental conditions or disorders to get access to medications that will make daily functioning easier, as well as work through any mental factors that might be causing or worsening their condition. Though medications can’t cure mental disorders, medication can make symptoms more manageable, making the process of psychotherapeutic treatment easier and more effective. Psychiatric care can be available through in-person psychiatry and online psychiatry, depending on where you live and your own preferences. However, psychiatric providers at Thriveworks in Dacula, GA specifically offer online psychiatry to their clients.
A therapist has an education specifically rooted in therapeutic practice, approaches, techniques, and treatment. They cannot prescribe medications for clients, though they often refer clients to psychiatrists for medication management. Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialize in mental health treatment, mainly through medication management and prescription, though they can also practice therapy.

To be human means that you experience a wide repertoire of emotions: sadness, despair, joy, confusion, anxiety, anger, etc. If we’re lucky, we learn how to regulate our normal range of feelings. If we’re lucky, the negative feelings don’t stick with us for longer than they have to in order to be healthy and adaptive.
But sometimes we’re unlucky. Through no fault of our own, we inherit or develop certain mental health conditions that can interfere with daily functioning and happiness. That’s when a psychiatrist can step in to help.
The compassionate and experienced psychiatric professionals at Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Dacula are ready to help you get to the root of your issues through positive mental health interventions and establish an effective treatment plan that works toward your mental health and goals.
Psychiatry is a branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental health conditions and other behaviors that impact our lives. Psychiatric providers are medically trained professionals who specialize in mental health, allowing them to prescribe and manage medications for their clients.
Many mental health conditions are influenced by how our genes interact with our environment, and they’re part of natural variations in the human brain. However, just because these variations may occur naturally doesn’t mean that certain symptoms can’t be disabling. Whether the behaviors and conditions are taught or occur genetically, psychiatric providers help people notice mental patterns that are not helpful to them and make adjustments, as well as make their symptoms more manageable through medication.
