ABOUT CARE
Psychiatric consultations
Psychiatry is a medical specialty. A psychiatric consultation helps you better understand what you're experiencing, obtain a thorough diagnostic assessment, and establish a treatment plan suited to your situation, your goals, and your values.
Depending on your needs, the plan may include medication optimization along with referrals to psychotherapy, coaching, mindfulness, physical activity, or nutrition support. The approach is flexible: rather than a single model, the goal is your functioning and well-being.
This service suits people seeking a psychiatric assessment, a second opinion, a medication review, or support for more complex mental-health concerns, for themselves or for their adolescent (age 12+).
