How Effective Is Online Psychiatry?

Numerous peer-reviewed studies have shown that online psychiatry (also referred to as telepsychiatry) can be just as effective as in-person psychiatry. The psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks in Ashland, VA have adapted all their exceptional therapeutic practices for virtual (or telehealth) clients.

Almost all of the services of an in-person psychiatric NP, including diagnosis, medication management, and psychotherapy can be conducted online through Thriveworks in Ashland, VA. 

What Are the Signs and Symptoms of a Potential Mental Health Condition?

How Does a Psychiatric NP Treat Mental Health Conditions?

The psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks in Ashland, VA conduct comprehensive evaluations of their clients before coming up with a treatment plan. Psychiatric treatments may include the following:

  • Psychotropic medications like antidepressants, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, or anti-anxiety drugs

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
