Our medication management sessions can help determine whether or not a medication is the best option for you. Through these sessions, Dr. Patel will discuss all medication options and schedule follow-up appointments to better assess your clinical condition.
The Role of Medications & How We Can Help:
During medication management sessions, Dr. Patel will work with you to find the most appropriate medication to address your condition, if clinically warranted. We work together as a team. All risks, benefits, alternatives to treatment, side effect profile of medications, and risks associated with taking no medications are fully discussed. This is an informed process. Some people benefit greatly from medications, others not so much. Every patient is different. Each treatment plan is individualized to improve the chances of a better clinical outcome.
How Medication Can Help You
Medications can often be the greatest drivers for recovery and wellness, as some mental health conditions often respond better to medications than to therapy alone. Oftentimes, a combination approach using therapy + medication may work best, especially if you are struggling with both addiction and another mental health condition.
If you’re considering medication for your mental health or addiction needs, Dr. Patel will work with you to find the right balance for your wellness and recovery. Contact us today to learn more about our medication management services.
