What happens during an initial psychiatric evaluation?

Your initial psychiatric evaluation includes a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms, medical and mental health history, current medications, concerns, and treatment goals. Based on this evaluation, your provider will create a personalized treatment plan that may include medication, follow-up care, brief therapy, or coordination with your current therapist.

What types of psychiatric appointments are available?

No. Medication refills require a scheduled appointment so your provider can monitor your progress, discuss any concerns, and ensure your treatment remains safe and effective.

Do I need a referral from a medical doctor?

No. The psychiatric provider has full prescribing authority, so you do not need a referral from a medical doctor to schedule an evaluation or receive medication management services. When appropriate, your provider can also coordinate care with your therapist or other healthcare professionals.

How do medication refills and follow-up visits work?

Medication refills require a scheduled appointment so your provider can review your symptoms, medication response, possible side effects, and overall progress. Regular medication check-ins help ensure your treatment remains safe, effective, and aligned with your current needs.
