Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry DC – Local Mental Health Services
Popular TV series Schitt’s Creek features a family of four who take a hard hit and have their lives turned upside down. Together, as a family, the Roses could really use therapy to get through their mess and learn how to communicate their needs better. But as individuals, they could also benefit from talking with a mental health professional. Are you like:
- David, who has difficulty communicating with his friends, partner, and family when there are things he is struggling with?
- Alexis, who wants to find value in herself outside of her relationships and seeks validation from her parents?

Who Needs Mental Health Help?
As we touched on briefly, there are many different areas of life that working with a counselor, therapist, psychiatrist, or clinical psychologist could prove to be beneficial. In reality, most of us could use the help of a mental health professional. Take these two situations, for example.
- Alec works at a company where most of the day he’s on a computer. Every now and then, he needs to call customers to let them know about alerts that he found on their accounts. Although he talks to his co-workers throughout the day, the thought of calling someone over the phone seems impossible. His heart races, he feels tightness in his chest, he has shortness of breath, and he starts sweating excessively. After talking to his family about it, he thinks he might have social anxiety. He decides to work with a therapist to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment to overcome those complicated feelings.
- McKenna’s older sister passed away when they were younger. It’s been a long time since that happened, but McKenna still struggles with grief, especially when her sister’s birthday rolls around. Instead of celebrating her sister’s life, she’s angry that she has to mourn her instead. McKenna is tired of holding onto that sadness and wants to learn to move on. She schedules an appointment with a counselor who can give her guidance on overcoming her grief and feeling at peace about her sister’s passing.
Ultimately, the psychiatrists, counselors, clinical social workers, and therapists at Thriveworks will help improve your mental well-being and offer the guidance or support you need to get through tough times. Here are a few topics that are often discussed in counseling:

Meet with a Licensed Psychiatrist at Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry DC
If you’re in need of treatment for a mental health concern like depression or anxiety, psychiatry may offer the help you need. As a medical doctor that has also completed a psychiatry residency, a psychiatrist is highly qualified to deal with mental health conditions from both a mental and physical perspective.
Your initial diagnosis may call for a psychological evaluation as well as a series of physical tests to determine the causes and symptoms of your condition. Psychiatrists guide their clients through these processes and use the gleaned information to inform diagnosis and treatment. Treatment can include therapy, medication, or both.
You don’t have to struggle with mental health issues alone. The licensed psychiatrists at Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry DC are ready to help clients through secure online therapy sessions.
