Starting Psychiatry/medication

Need more help deciding?

It’s essential to get the help you need when you’re dealing with mental illnesses and challenges. Luckily, working with a medical professional, like a psychiatric nurse practitioner, can prove to be a smart and beneficial decision. At Thriveworks Counseling in West Bloomfield, MI, our psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners are board certified and ready to provide you with exceptional care.

If you are struggling with a specific mood disorder or just need extra guidance in finding your self-worth, a Thriveworks psychiatric nurse practitioner can be the answer you’ve been searching for. To work with one of our mental health professionals, book online, or call our office.

What Do I Need to Know About Psychiatric Medication?

Each person and their needs are considered on a case-by-case basis. If you might best benefit from taking a medication, your psychiatrist will provide you with medication management.

Medication management is essentially working with your provider to ensure the correct dosage is being taken, that you take your medication at the right time of day, that you know whether or not to eat with your prescription, and to monitor any potential side effects that may occur.

Before starting anything new, make sure to disclose any past medical history, any allergies you may have, and any questions you have before starting the new medication. Your Thriveworks psychiatrist will work with you closely every step of the way.

What Areas Are Treated in Psychiatry?

At Thriveworks Counseling in West Bloomfield, our team of psychiatric nurse practitioners are board certified and highly trained to treat a wide range of mental health disorders. Some of the more common areas you can expect them to treat include:

  • Mood Disorders: Bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, minor depressive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Anxiety Disorders: Generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder
  • Eating Disorder: Anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating
  • Personality Disorders: Borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, paranoid personality disorder
  • Learning Disorders: Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia

To provide you with the best treatment plan possible, your psychiatric nurse practitioner might utilize psychological tests, psychotherapy, medication management, and more. They might also discuss your diet, sleep, and exercise levels to cover all areas of your wellbeing.

I spoke with a great Therapist who was very professional and engaging. I had some questions but am not in a position to book just yet and and she took the time to answer my questions and give me some guidance. Her name was Kenya Marion and I look forward to booking sessions with her when I am able. I thank her for her time.
