Yes, we offer comprehensive psychiatric services to meet your mental health needs.
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 Newton, MA 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.
A Psychiatry Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly trained and licensed professional who specializes in mental health care. They are qualified to diagnose and treat mental health conditions, prescribe medications, and provide therapy. Psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks are qualified to prescribe medications for a variety of mental health conditions. They work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Oftentimes, psychiatrists or psychiatric professionals will perform a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which involves an in-depth discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and current medications. Once they reach a diagnosis, they may suggest starting certain medications depending on your condition and the intensity of your symptoms.
Yes. At Thriveworks, we offer online-only psychiatry services for optimal comfort and convenience.
Psychiatric services at Thriveworks Newton can last for as little or as much time as the client needs to reach their treatment goals, whether that be a month or two or over the course of a year. Treatment length is heavily dependent on the condition(s) being treated, the course of treatment, and the client’s goals for treatment.
Psychiatrists are mental health professionals who can prescribe anxiety medication and provide therapeutic treatment for anxiety, although not all psychiatrists offer therapy. At Thriveworks, medication management occurs via online psychiatry sessions.
Yes, Thriveworks accepts most major insurance plans. We strive to make mental health care accessible and affordable for everyone.
For conditions like depression and anxiety, medication management is a key factor in helping people get better. Psychiatrists and nurse practitioners are credentialed and trained in knowing what medication to prescribe, how much medication is needed, and how often someone should be taking it.
Thriveworks Newton, MA has psychiatric nurse practitioners who can provide online medication management. If you are having symptoms of a mental health condition that may require medication, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Newton Counseling. One of our scheduling specialists can set you up with a psychiatric nurse practitioner who can help you via video.
People often assume that only the most severe cases of mental illness require medication. This isn’t always true. People who have mild cases of mental illness can see great benefits from using medication alongside counseling services. Now, this does depend on the individual, their challenges, and their past treatment history. When medication is the right fit for our clients, one might find the following medications helpful:
The different types of mental illness that can benefit from medication is not limited to anxiety and depression. If you are suffering from something and feel like medicine might be your next best option, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Newton Counseling. Our psychiatric nurse practitioners can help identify your areas of concern and design a treatment plan that’s made for you.
Psychiatrists are trained medical professionals who have the knowledge, skills, and experience to treat a wide range of conditions in the mental health field. As mentioned previously, medicine can play a necessary role in the management of mental illness for some people. Medication can help you start to live a happy and healthy life again.
When starting a medication, it’s important to know about your health history to ensure the wrong medication isn’t prescribed. A psychiatrist can make that decision and educate you on when you should take something, how much, if you should take it with or without food, and so on.
Here at Thriveworks Newton Counseling, we believe that everyone deserves to live a happier, more successful life. Sometimes, we just need the help of a mental health professional along the way. If you are struggling to manage a mental illness and think you would benefit from working with an online psychiatric nurse practitioner, reach out today.
