Thriveworks is a low acuity mental health provider, meaning we specialize in supporting clients with mild to moderate mental health concerns. We’re here to help with conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship issues, and many other mental health challenges.
However, we recommend seeking specialized care if you’re currently experiencing:
For immediate assistance with physical or mental health emergencies, contact 911 or visit our immediate help page for additional resources.
Most Thriveworks locations offer psychiatry through online sessions only. However, we’re in the process of expanding in-person psychiatry services across the U.S. and currently offer it at select locations: Chesapeake, VA; Fort Worth, TX; and Charlotte, NC.
Medications vary by state and provider. Thriveworks can prescribe anti-anxiety medications (such as Prazosin and Vistaril), antidepressants (such as Wellbutrin, Lexapro, Zoloft, and Prozac), mood stabilizers (such as Lamictal, Depakote, and Topamax), stimulant ADHD medications (such as Adderall, Concerta, Ritalin, and Vyvanse), non-stimulant ADHD medication (such as Strattera), benzodiazepines (such as Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, and Ativan), sleep medications (such as Ambien, Lunesta, Sonata, and Belsomra), and more.
Thriveworks does not prescribe certain controlled substances including:
If your medication isn’t working effectively or you’re experiencing persistent side effects, talk with your psychiatric nurse practitioner about adjusting your dosage or trying a different medication.
Never take more than the prescribed amount or switch medications on your own. Always consult with your provider first to ensure your safety and find the treatment that works best for you.
No, medication is not required. However, our psychiatric providers primarily focus on medication management rather than ongoing therapy. If you’re looking for therapy without medication, we can help you connect with one of our therapists who specializes in talk therapy approaches.
It’s worth discussing with your provider what type of treatment would be most effective for your specific needs, whether that’s medication, therapy, or a combination of both.
Talk therapy, provided by our counselors and therapists, uses therapeutic techniques to help you work through emotional and behavioral challenges. Psychiatry, led by our psychiatric nurse practitioners, focuses on diagnosing mental health conditions and treating them with medication.
Both psychiatric nurse practitioners and psychiatrists can assess, diagnose, and prescribe medication for mental health conditions. The main difference is their educational path: psychiatric nurse practitioners have nursing backgrounds with specialized psychiatric training, while psychiatrists attend medical school with specialized psychiatry training.
At Thriveworks, our nurse practitioners practice under the supervision of board-certified psychiatrists. In some states, a nurse practitioner is able to practice independently, just like a psychiatrist.
Our flexible cancellation policy allows clients to reschedule or cancel an appointment up to 48 hours in advance.
Clients will be charged a late cancellation fee of $135 if they cancel or reschedule less than 48 hours before their appointment, don’t show up for their appointment, or are more than 10 minutes late to a 30 minute-appointment or 15 minutes late to a 60-minute appointment (unless the session is resumed and care is delivered).
