What Does Psychiatric Treatment Involve?

Psychiatric nurse practitioners (NPs) are mental health professionals who study emotional, mental, and behavioral issues with a focus on chemical imbalances.

In addition to conducting psychotherapy, a psychiatric NP can prescribe medications to treat mental and emotional disorders as a qualified medical doctor. Every individual is unique, therefore everyone’s plan for care is different. After a psychiatric evaluation, your treatment plan may include therapy, medication, or a combination of both.

In addition, you will learn methods of self-care to apply in between sessions and into the future. These may include plans for dealing with stressors and emotional triggers that occur in everyday life.

Would a Psychiatric NP Be Able to Help Me?

Scheduling a session with a psychiatric NP may sound like a drastic step, but it’s more common than you may realize. A large portion of the population deals with mental health issues such as depression or anxiety daily.

There are many reasons individuals seek out the help of a psychiatric NP, including:

  • Bipolar disorder
  • Mood disorders
  • Eating disorders
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Substance abuse
  • Schizophrenia
  • Overall feelings of despair and hopelessness

If you are experiencing any of the above, consider making an appointment with an NP at Thriveworks Counseling for diagnosis and treatment.
