We're psychiatric providers focused on medication, and our visits also include real therapeutic work. Depending on your clinician, visits may draw on supportive, motivational interviewing, CBT-based, or DBT-based skills.

We don't prescribe stimulants or other Schedule II controlled medications. For other controlled medications, whether one is right for you is decided case by case by your provider after your evaluation. Federal rules for prescribing these through telehealth are changing, and some situations may require an in-person visit. If you take one now, please mention it in your intake packet or call our office, and we'll let you know what's possible.

Yes. If you'd like to come off a medication, your provider will talk with you about the benefits and risks. If it makes sense, they'll create a slow, careful plan to lower it safely. Sometimes, after an assessment, your provider may recommend staying on a medication and will explain why, but the decision is yours. Please don't stop a medication on your own; some can cause withdrawal symptoms or a return of symptoms if stopped suddenly.

If you're in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), any time, day or night. In an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
