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 Toledo, OH 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 Toledo 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.
It can be tough to find time in your busy schedule to see a psychiatrist, especially when you factor in commuting time. That’s why at Thriveworks, we offer online psychiatry services by video.
If your mental health is interfering with your life and you’re ready to work with a licensed psychiatric nurse practitioner, reach out to us Thriveworks Counseling in Toledo, OH.
Psychiatrists can offer effective treatment for a wide range of mental health issues, including:
If you’re experiencing any of the above or you’re faced with another mental or emotional health issue, help is available at Thriveworks Counseling in Toledo, OH.
Over the course of your initial sessions, a Thriveworks psychiatric nurse practitioner will evaluate your symptoms to devise the treatment plan that will be right for you.
Treatment of mental disorders typically involves either talk therapy or medication, and sometimes both. Talk therapy takes a deep look into the causes of underlying issues related to mental and behavioral problems. Throughout this treatment, you and your provider will come to a greater understanding of your underlying issues and harmful thought patterns. This way it will be possible to come up with effective strategies to help you meet life’s challenges.
Mental, emotional, and behavioral problems pose significant challenges but this doesn’t mean you have to face them alone. If you had a problem with your car, you would see a mechanic. If you had an injury, you would see a doctor. Why should we treat mental wellbeing any differently?
At Thriveworks Counseling, our online psychiatry appointments make it easy to prioritize your mental health from the comfort of your own home. Plus, evening and weekend appointment times make it simple to find a time slot that is right for your schedule. If you ever need to reschedule an appointment, feel free to take advantage of our flexible cancellation policy.
Thriveworks accepts many forms of insurance and also offers a large number of exclusive benefits to all clients. Visiting a licensed psychiatric provider can make a real difference in your emotional and mental wellbeing. To get started, contact us at Thriveworks Counseling in Toledo, OH.
