Starting Psychiatry/medication

Need more help deciding?

Discover how psychiatric services can benefit you. Uninsured residents can access Thriveworks’ mental health services here, while residents with insurance can schedule an appointment here (where any out-of-pocket expenses will be covered).

Will Talking to a Psychiatrist Help? 

Anyone can benefit from talking with a psychiatrist about the issues that they’re struggling to cope with. Just like talking with a physician about your body’s health, psychiatrists are able to help you better manage your mental health—which is just as important. If you’re not familiar with what a psychiatrist is, they: 

  • Are medical doctors, in addition to often being licensed mental health professionals
  • Can prescribe helpful medication that assists clients in managing the harmful symptoms of mental health conditions 
  • Are often the preferred treatment method for emotional or behavioral conditions such as major depression or ADHD

Not everyone who talks with a psychiatric provider will be prescribed medication, and your treatment options will depend on your own preferences and needs. By talking openly about what’s bothering you, you can help to provide your Thriveworks psychiatric nurse practitioner with the information they need to help you manage your mental health challenges. 

Could I Benefit from Psychiatry?

 You may consider our psychiatric services if you’re suffering from the symptoms of: 

  • ADHD 
  • PTSD 
  • Eating disorders
  • OCD 
  • Depression 
  • Social anxiety 
  • And many other mental health conditions 

By scheduling an initial appointment to connect with one of our trained providers, you can start moving toward a renewed emotional balance and work to improve your coping skills through therapy or medication management options.  

You can rest easy knowing that your conversations will be kept confidential — our online sessions adhere to the same strict HIPAA privacy regulations as our in-person sessions do.

I had 6 or 7 sessions with Nancy Fredricks. A lovely lady. However, I had to end my sessions with her. I started becasue I was going through a depression,which was not normal for me. I had never had councelling on my own before. I'd had marriage councelling, but never individual councelling. Nancy did not ask a lot of questions or offer much in the way of practical solutions. Also, Nancy spends a lot of time scratching her head. I'm not sure what her condition is, but it is very distracting to watch during a therapy session. I'm not saying that talking to Nancy didn't help me. But it was not offering enough of a value that I would continue on with it. I wish her a lot of success in the future.

Absolutely unbelievable..I would never on my life have thought that the therapist needs a therapist for her own issues with dealing with people and client feedback. I'm very disappointed with nancy Frederick. She is no where qualified to act as a financial advisor or medical doctor and give unprofessional and non solicited advice.
