I'm so glad to meet you on this therapeutic journey! My desire as a therapist is to meet people where they are in their own process of exploration and healing. That said, the most successful clients are ready to open themselves up to the chance that change is possible. I entered the mental health field to provide the kind of support and care that I would want my own family members to receive if they were experiencing an emotional or psychological crisis. I have been on both sides of the mental health system and know the barriers that can occur in finding quality and compassionate mental health care.

In the tapestry of life, there are moments when one feels adrift, questioning the very core of their existence. My ideal client is not just seeking a service; they are on a profound journey of self-discovery, a quest to unravel the layers of their identity and purpose. My ideal client apse for more than just superficial change- they crave a transformation that goes to the roots. Their goals extend beyond tangible; they are in pursuit of a life that aligns with their authentic self. It's not nearly about reaching a destination, but about the profound journey that shapes them along the way. Together, we embark on a journey of meaning.

Medication Management Therapists

What are the most effective ways to manage medications?

One of the most effective ways a patient can manage their medications is to keep a list of each drug and dosage they take. Such a list can be helpful in keeping to their schedule and can also be something they bring to their psychiatrist or other physician so that the healthcare provider has a clear picture of what they’re taking and in what quantity. Using a pill organizer can be useful for memory and organization. Patients should discuss their medications and their effects at every appointment.

What are the risks if medications are not managed properly?

A suboptimal approach to medication management can lead to potentially harmful health outcomes. Most psychiatric drugs have side effects, and if a patient is not aware of them, they may seek additional medical help or over the counter or prescription drugs to treat the side effects, which may have its own side effects, a process called “prescription cascade.” Another risk to disorganization is that a psychiatrist without full knowledge of a patient’s regimen could prescribe a medication that should not be mixed with a patient’s existing drugs.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to get help managing their medications?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing medication management as a tool for improving their life and avoiding dangerous side effects. Offering specific examples of an individual’s failure to properly manage their medication regimen should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to break management down into parts, and there are several apps that can be used to organize which drugs are ingested, when they need to be refilled, and how they should be stored.

Are there natural treatments that can replace medications?

While there are many medications that can be vital to mental health, there are some natural lifestyle changes that can help reduce the need for drugs. Regular exercise, good sleep habits, a healthy diet, and therapy can all go a long way in symptom relief. Psychiatric medications typically treat symptoms but do not necessarily treat the cause of the condition. Many clinicians consider medications an adjunct to treatment rather than a treatment in and of itself.
