Psychiatrists can help their clients understand their thoughts and feelings, assess and diagnose mental disorders, and also offer psychiatric treatment.

If you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety or another mental disorder, please consider talking to a psychiatrist. Psychiatrists are experts in the mental health field who are qualified to provide life-changing mental health care. 

Thriveworks Counseling in Jackson, MS has online psychiatric nurse practitioners on our team who can help you as soon as this week. If you’d like to set up an appointment with one of these professionals, call us today. We’re ready when you are.

How Can a Psychiatrist Help Me?

Have you ever experienced symptoms of a mental health condition? Have you ever felt unwell, but you weren’t sure why or how to feel better? A psychiatrist can step in and offer the help you need. Please consider talking to a psychiatrist if you are experiencing…

  • Feelings of hopelessness
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Substance abuse problems
  • Addictive habits/behaviors
  • Anxiety or depressive feelings
  • Thoughts of self-harm

These are just a few challenges that might strike alarm. If you are feeling mentally or emotionally unwell, psychiatric providers can offer their guidance and assistance.

Psychiatric nurse practitioners are qualified to help their clients in ways that other providers cannot. In addition to diagnosing mental illnesses, they can recommend treatment and then also lead your treatment, which might include medication. In many cases, therapy and medication prove to work well in tandem. 

What Exactly Is Medication Management?

Medication management is probably exactly what you think it is. This refers to the process of understanding your mental disorder and the medication that you are prescribed for it. Psychiatrists can offer medication management to their clients, which involves explaining the exact dosage of one’s medication and how to take it (for example, with or without food). They will make these instructions abundantly clear.

It's like chatting with an old friend. Christy Smith was compassionate and allowed me time to let her words sink in. I will definitely be using her again.
