What is your go-to approach in sessions?

When my client's follow up with me I want to know how they have been doing since the last time we met and if there were any changes. My approach is to be available as a psychiatric resource. We are living in a technological time where consumers have access to fast information but that information still has to be analyzed and applied. I enjoy helping people see things clearly and manage more simply.

What is your typical approach to prescribing medications?

I take a more holistic approach when it comes to prescribing medications because there are so many influences that can impact a person's mental health. I include my client in on the decision making process when prescribing medication. I find when my client's know the answer to the question “why should I take this medication?” They feel more in control which helps them get on the path to feeling better.

Do you teach clients any therapeutic tools in sessions?

I know the client is making progress when they appear happier, are eating and sleeping better, their social interactions are improving, and they are getting on with pursuing their personal goals.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement psychiatric treatment?

Client's usually benefit from improving on their diet, incorporating some type of exercise routine pattern, and engaging in a hobby.

What should someone do to prepare for starting psychiatric care?

To prepare for your first psychiatric session put together a list of any previous mental health diagnosis you may have received in the past, as well as, medications previously prescribed. If available know your family history of any mental health diagnosis. Be up to date with your primary care provider wellness check. The rest is going to be easy.

Starting Psychiatry/medication

Need more help deciding?

When you’re struggling with mental health issues, it can be difficult to identify what’s wrong and even harder to do something about it. Asking for help is not always easy but it can make all the difference in improving your quality of life. Poor mental health can negatively impact your performance at work or school, get in the way of relationships, and make it difficult to perform daily tasks.

If you’re struggling with your mental health, a board-certified psychiatrist can help. The psychiatric nurse practitioners at Thriveworks in Cherry Hill, NJ specialize in diagnosing and treating mental health issues and they can help you overcome symptoms that are interfering with your life.

Could Speaking With a Psychiatrist Help Me?

Some common issues that prompt people to seek care from a psychiatrist include:

  • Anxiety or stress disorders
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Addiction or substance abuse
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Postpartum depression and other depressive disorders
  • ADD and ADHD
  • Personality or mood disorders

What Will My Psychiatric Treatment Involve?

When you start working with a psychiatrist, they’ll begin by assessing your mental health from a scientific approach. There are many factors your psychiatrist will take into consideration as they are contemplating a diagnosis and treatment plan, including your personality, emotional state, past experiences, family history, and environment.

Once other medical concerns have been ruled out and a diagnosis has been reached, you can expect your psychiatrist to create a personalized treatment plan to overcome and resolve whatever mental health issues you may be facing. Your treatment plan may include a combination of different forms of therapy, prescription medication, lifestyle adjustments, and other therapeutic techniques. These techniques might include home practices like meditation that can help control your symptoms and prevent relapses.

If you are ready to improve your mental health, let Thriveworks in Cherry Hill, NJ show you the way. Our licensed psychiatric nurse practitioners are ready to help you overcome your psychological problems and get the most out of life.

★★☆☆☆
I initially had a fantastic experience with Thriveworks, and I was thrilled with the service they provided. My journey to find the right therapist was successful, and I happily recommended Thriveworks to friends and family. However, my positive experience took a turn when I discovered that the therapist I connected with does not accept my insurance. Embarking on the path to seek help required a lot of courage on my part, and I fully committed to the process. In just 4 or 5 sessions, I developed a strong connection with my therapist. Unfortunately, the realization that she could no longer continue due to insurance constraints has left me feeling disappointed. Now, I find myself having to start the therapeutic journey all over again, and this has diminished my overall satisfaction with the service.

Sherodle is a fantastic counselor. I’ve learned so much that I use to make my life better. She is easy to speak with, very personable. Not sure about your rating system. I put 5 assuming that is best.
