Watertown, MA Psychiatry – Meet With Board-Certified Psychiatric Providers

Every person’s story and situation are unique, and that’s why every treatment plan should also be different. What works for you might not work for someone else, and that’s completely normal and expected. Luckily, the online psychiatric nurse practitioners at Thriveworks Watertown Counseling have the training, skills, and experience to diagnose, treat, and manage a wide variety of mental health conditions and concerns.

We offer medication management to our clients to help improve their overall quality of life in a safe, monitored environment. If you would like to get started with a trusted mental health professional at Thriveworks Watertown, just give us a call. One of our scheduling specialist team members can help get you set up. Let’s dive into what psychiatry and medication management are.

Who Could Benefit from Medication Management?

People often assume that you must have the most severe case of a mental illness in order to find benefit in the use of medication. However, that’s not true. You can also find it beneficial to take a prescribed medication if you have a milder case of mental illness. People with conditions such as anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders are all examples of common illnesses that often use medication in their treatment plans.

Starting a new medication can be scary if you feel like you don’t 100% know what you’re getting into. Luckily for you, our psychiatric nurse practitioners at Thriveworks Watertown Counseling are dedicated to providing compassionate, understanding client care and will make this a smooth process for you. Types of medication that you could benefit from include antidepressants, mood stabilizers, and more. Your mental health provider will assess your specific needs and goals as well as past medical history to determine what medication is the best fit for you.

Why Choose Online Psychiatry?

There are many benefits to working with an online psychiatric nurse practitioner at Thriveworks Watertown Counseling. One of the best perks is how convenient it is, as all of our psychiatry sessions are conducted online by video.

With our flexible scheduling options and extended hours that include evenings and weekends, you can be sure to find something that fits your schedule. In addition to convenience, online psychiatry is comfortable and reliable. You don’t have to worry about uncontrollable outside factors like weather or traffic. There are many other benefits that you will get to explore when deciding to work with us.

For the past year my mental, emotional and physical health has been restored. By God's providence, I connected with a psychiatric nurse practitioner at your agency. She skillfully assessed my situation and quickly prescribed much needed medication. I was at an all time low. Because of her expertise, compassion, and support, my life was renewed. So incredibly grateful to have my life back again.

It was very difficult getting my account up. I believe that happens because when we initially signed up i made the account but it’s under my spouse insurance. After fixing the problem my not his account reflects our current therapy sessions. We get emails and text but when we sign into the thrivework accounts we can’t see the billing cycle to pay or see out upcoming session. Neither one of our accounts display update and current account information. And we have called a few times to get it right and it’s not working . My therapist and agency is splendid
